I jus purchased the same splitter after tryin to split some dry hedge by hand and it is well worth the money. I usually dont cut anything over say 12 inches and it has exceeded my expectations of an electric splitter. I threw a 16 inch piece of sycamore on it to see what it would do with it and it split it. Only thing that gave it any trouble were the bigger rounds of hedge. Well worth the 300 dollars IMO, make sure you read the manual, there is a wing nut at the end of the splitter you have to loosen before each use, I'd say if you dont do it, it might prematurally wear it out. Good luck

thanks Cody...now that's a reply I can use...

sucks it only takes 20 inch long logs.

They need to make a 10 ton splitter and have it take upto 26 inch. My stove takes upto 28 so i tend to cut a little bigger then most.

 

[CodyWayne718]

I run a 18'' bar and jus cut the length of my bar, another down side of the task force 5 ton is that the ram doesnt travel all the way to the head. Still worth the money IMO thou. Comes with a 2 year warranty too so thats not bad.

Really? You read 120 reviews? Unbelievable!
Do a search for
Task Force 5-Ton Electric Log Splitter and you can find the basic stats which say 20" long logs.
Some people should not use splitters!

I'm not angry. I'm totally bewildered by anyone who reads 120 reviews trying to find basic stats!
As I said, maybe useing a splitter isn't for you.
And there's nothing wrong with the length of my wood.

Here's my bewilderment, how a guy sits on a site were people ask question and their OPINIONS and then says "I can't believe you need to read that many reviews"...If you don't like my question then don't respond leave it open for people that want to use this forum for helping others.

You live near me. If you want some help, PM me and you can come out to the farm and we can work together.

P.S.-
If you have a truck, bring it and I'll turn you on to some firewood.
Or, spend your time reading opinions.

Was looking at the same splitter.
You can always buy it, and if you don't like it can just check with the stores return policy and return if needed...or sell on Craiglist.
