Build quality better than expected, worked exceptionally well after being slightly modified.
I made this purchase after a large tree fell in my garden and needed to clean up the mess myself.
This product seems to be available under different branding and in different colours.
The supplied instructions were easy to follow and assembly could be carried out without reading the leaflet. The only minor thing during set up was that the nuts securing each wheel need to be tightened fully to avoid them undoing during use (vibration?).
The motor is deafeningly loud (rated at 108db) so you need to wear ear defenders when using it.
During the first use, I had a couple of jams, due to the plastic roller bar that is located within the opening below the rotating blade. The roller is secured by four security screws and I removed it which did not seem to have any ill effect. Once the roller was removed I never had a single jam afterwards as the debris was no longer impeded from emptying into the chipping box.
Took a while to get used to using this shredder but once I did, I was able to dispense with a VERY large pile of branches that had been sorted by thickness (under 4cm diameter) and without foliage (leaves WILL jam up around the centre of the rotating blades).
A spare set of blades were supplied and they can also be rotated. I used this for several hours and the blades seemed to remain sharp throughout. If there is a jam, then the motor changes sound, slows down OR shuts off the power if something has gone wrong (like an overfilled chipping box).
Id recommend this only if you have sufficient use for it because the price is such that you could hire a more powerful unit with a thicker branch capacity for slightly less money.
