Bought one of these for $120 off amazon. I cleared out our whole alleyway of brush and it chopped the green stuff into this amazing fine mulch that heated up in about 30 minutes in my geobin. Worked well for dry branches too for pathway mulch but I have mostly greens right now. Had trouble getting enough material to heat up my pile until now!

I have been looking into buying on of these!
Did you get it at Harbor Freight?
I got one and made quick work of the stuff in my yard, and now I am the weirdo that rides my weird bike around with my kids and collects good sticks so we can chip them, too.
Mine is blue, though. No idea of the brand.
How sturdy is it? We have bamboo 1″ -2″ diameter. Some cured and hard, some still green.
I got one when I was tired of filling the yard waste bin. Also got a leaf shredder. Now all the things get shredded and chipped and thrown into a pile for next year’s garden cover.
Yeah, I’ve got one recently, a Bosch one (I’m from Europe) and I’ve had to cut down 3 trees on my allotment plot. So tomorrow, if the weather permits it, I’m going to build my compost spaces and go to town on what I’ve chopped down.
After a post earlier this week, I immediately added one to my registry and yesterday someone bought it! I’m so excited!!!
What there’s metric reotemp thermometers? Goddamnit I fucked up
How loud is it? I have neighbors but Yeah
I got a similar sunjoe chipper from Amazon and I think it’s pretty neat. It takes a little bit of use before you figure out how to angle the branches to get them to chip and not bind or clog the chute. The results aren’t perfect but if you want to turn a big pile of hedge trimmings into a smaller pile, it’s plenty good at that.
