Purchased this splitter for the wood I had from hurricane Ida. I had several logs in excess of thirty inches in diameter that I thought would be too much for this splitter. I'm happy to say I was wrong. The engine bogged down as expected but the splitter powered through. I had several large diameter logs with large knots and limbs and this splitter preformed better than expected. I contemplated a bigger splitter but the 27 ton of splitting force has been plenty. It's powerful and well built with heavy duty components. I recommend looking over the assembly as mine had several loose items.

At the price new for a 27ton splitter, you get your money's worth! Easy to put together and starts right up. Splits hardwood logs with ease! And the vertical feature makes getting those heavy logs done quick too without breaking your back. I highly recommend if you are a DIY type of person. It will pay for itself in a couple years.

So far this has been a sold log splitter, I have had it for only a week and will follow up after a few more uses. It comes well packaged, and instruction are easy to follow for set-up I ran it for 2 hours so far and will go easy with it until the break in time is completed ( 5 hrs ) but so far it has handled oak, walnut and hickory logs without any issues. I did custom make an extension table for the work side as I was worried about a log falling on the oil filter or the pump. NOTE to Champion maybe you can make this extension table as part of the log splitter or at lease a attachment opinion that can be purchased. It starts up with little effort and run smooth. Overall, extremely pleased with purchase.

I run a full time firewood business. I bought this splitter back in September to supplement another splitter I have. My wife named her Stella Jane (she names all of my equipment). This splitter surpassed all expectations and handled every bit of the splitting for my 2021 Fall/Winter season, and is now powering thru my Spring new cut season. Ya'll we split ALOT of wood. Stella Jane is the queen. Marry that girl!

I needed a splitter that is easy to maneuver around around my ranch, but could split even the largest of tree rounds. This week we lost 5 old growth trees to a wind and ice storm. I was worried that a 27 ton was large enough. But the Champion proved to be plenty of power. The largest rounds were 43" across. I flipped the deck to vertical split as they were too heavy to lift. Probably over 300 lbs. The mighty 27 cracked them right open. Great job.
