Brush Master Series Residential Style Wood Chipper with Top Discharge Chute, 6.5 HP, 212cc, 2.25 in. Auto-Feed and 3 in 1 Discharge Options- New (not sold in California)

Box was damaged in the side exit shoot damaged had to hammer it in shape didn’t wanna return it good price product works great

Excellent value. Starts easily. Easy to move around. Shreds piles of yard waste to almost nothing -especially tree limbs.Had problem reported in other reviews re: alignment of some bolt holes. No big deal. Machine was well packaged, and assembled in less than 2 hours. Would buy again.

Minimal assembly required. Started on first pull. Very surprised at the strength of the engine. I ran big gobs of moist, frosted leaves through it and it minced them without problem. It took arm full almost as fast as I could load. I removed the spring loaded guard and the leaves just fell down the chute. The discharge is at least a 10:1 reduction. I'm hoping it turns to dark brown mulchy goodness after about six months. So far, the machine is better, more capable, than expected.

Shreds the foliage into mulch as fast as you can throw it in, no problems with wet foliage and small twigs. The assembly of the top chute is pain in the neck, the holes in the plastic part do not match the holes in the metal by 1/2”. I had to drill the plastic to make it fit.

This is a capable machine and has worked well during the 3 times I have used it so far. The lack of a discharge bag makes use a bit messy, however, this inconvenience is more than made up for by the increased airflow which has so far produced no clogs. I like the lighter weight for portability.

No complaints on the chipper and I’m happy I bought it. The plastic on mine wasn’t exactly a clean fit with metal parts but with enough manipulation i made it work. Throw out the assembly directions and just watch this guys video on YouTube and save yourself the hassle.

CH6 destroys yard waste. Easy to assemble. 4 stars only because some of the documentation was irrelevant, i.e., a book for the a different motor than the unit I have. Spent 15 minutes w that book before moving on to the one that had assembly instructions.

Manual says blade can dull after heavy use. Easy to access and sharpen. Checked blade after use. Still very sharp.

It's a bit of work getting limbs w lots of branches in chute. Use loppers to trim limb 1st or buy the 1200 dollar model.

Assembly instructions somewhat cryptic but unit works well for intended home use. Started on first pull. Easy to overfill with oil, so do it over something absorbent. Excellent sale price and appears sturdy, yet easy to move.

this machine is great. Quick and easy assembly, and chews up some debris.

Have used only once so far and the chipper did an excellent job mulching all the winters fallen tree branches in a short time. Very powerful.

Assembly of plastic parts was difficult.Holes hard to match up without persuading. Started on 1st pull.
