I’ve only used it once but had it running for the better part of 2 hours. For the price, I’m very pleased with it. It did jam once or twice but was easy to clear. Hope it lasts because it definitely saved me time with twigs and smaller branches.
Can only put straight branches in. Can't expect it to eat up branched yard debris. Wish I had known this when I trimmed back the overgrown branches on my bushes. I would have cut them off in smaller and straighter pieces. Shred is great size to add to the compost heap.
I bought this to clean up a large yard worth of branches and twigs. It works great on the smaller items. You have to be careful not to put too large of a branch in so it doesn't get jammed. I would recommend it for most smaller yard cleanups.
I've had it for about a month now. It is doing exactly what it claims it will do. One note: Always open it up when finished and clean out around the blade cutting area, especially around the blade shaft. This prevents future possible jamming.
