Landworks Rotor Wood Chipper Shredder Mulcher, 3 Inch Max Capacity | Heavy Duty, 7 HP Gas Powered Engine with a 15:1 reduction ratio, Processing Branches up to 3" at 3600 RPM

The chipper started on the first pull with every start and ran perfectly. I chopped up a huge pile of brush. I love the large and long feeding chute and that it sends the chips out in the same direction as the brush goes in. I can fit up to 3", but it's best not to chip anything more than 2". If you feed it too quickly, especially with large pieces it will stall out. It is a fantastic machine, especially for that price range. It was easy to assemble. It's very easy to maneuver and it's small enough that it doesn't take up much storage space. When I ordered this on September 4th 2023 I thought it was listed as $439. The invoice price was $470. Today, October 2nd 2023 it is now listed as $699. That seems like an awfully big price jump in such a short time. Maybe the price of the unit varies according to availability. It's now October of 2024 and I still love this little chipper. I've put loads of brush through it. It still starts on the first pull and runs fantastic. The only issue is the welds on the muffler broke so now the muffler wobbles around on the top of the muffler pipe. It's a great machine for the price and I highly recommend it.

I typically don't write reviews but felt compelled to do so. I was unsure about which mini chopper to buy, but knew I needed one after paying hundreds of dollars each year for folks to prune my trees and bushes and discard the debris. I landed on this one after reviewing several and it hasn't disappointed. Pros: Very reliable and starts with easy. It even ran for several hrs after I put chainsaw / barb oil in it vs. the recommended motor oil (I was a little excited when I 1st got it). It stalled on me a cpl times with the oil, but still was a work horse. After I replaced the oil it ran non-stop. Start - as I mentioned early, easy and consistent start. Cons: (not many and trivial) - sits lower than I though so I found myself bending over more to feed it than I thought I would (I'm 6ft) - Heavier than expected so mounting the engine onto the base takes a little effort -wheel base doesn't extend completely beyond the engine, thus the engine rubs against one wheel every time I move it, making moving it a bit of a hassle. Overall I'm pleased with the purchase though.

I'm very happy with this chipper! Today was the first day I've used it and it did exactly what I needed it to do, including 3" branches. I topped around 15 to 20 trees in my backyard and needed a chipper for the clean up afterwards. I researched several chippers through reviews, videos, forums, etc. And came to the same conclusion that all chippers that says can handle up to 3" branches isn't necessarily true... so I thought!? I'll get back to this in just a moment. The box arrived in good shape. The instruction booklet was easy to follow putting it together. I took note from another reviewer that mentioned not to tighten the bolts down super hard as he had one snap off. It took all of 20 minutes to put it together. The only problem I had is that it was missing one bolt. I determined it fell out of the box during shipping as I found the washers in the box. This was NOT a seller forgetting to put the necessary parts in the box. It fired right up with no problems. I started feeding it with smaller branches and gradually worked up to larger branches. When I got to the 3" branches, I took another approach (based on what I didn't see in the reviews) and trimmed most of the smaller branches that was hanging off of it. From the reviews I read and watched on YouTube, most people was frustrated with the larger branches bogging it down and stopping the motor, or by jamming the chipper blades and having to unjam it. By trimming the smaller branches off the main stock it fit better through the small feeder hole where the blades are. I also hand fed the 3" branches by allowing only 6" to 10" at a time to be chipped, which in turn allowed the engine to catch up in between hand feeds. Yes it was a slower process, but not once did I have to restart the engine or unjam the blades. Finally thoughts; for the money, it's worth it if you have patience to feed the larger branches slowly with a little trimming here and there. I did look at the larger chippers the would do 4" to 6" branches (so they say), but didn't want to spend 4 or 5k for something that will see use maybe 3 or 4 times a year. I'll update my review if anything changes. Hope this helps!

This chipper has exceeded my expectations. I had lots of clean up to do and tired of renting heavy, hard to maneuver machine. This machine is the perfect size, and easy to maneuver. I found it easy to assemble and started right up. It will do 3” branch if you feed it slowly. I’ve used it about 15 hours so far and been very satisfied. I have to admit I have stalled it twice by being over zealous on feeding bigger branches, but it does not clog like the machines I have rented frequently did. The output chute is a bit low. It will not feed directly into my trailer. Using a storage bin to gather the clippings and then transferring to trailer has been an easy workaround. I highly recommend.

this is not what it say that can chip 3 inch wood branches. It may only chip 2 to 2.5 inch max tree branches. The machine is easy to stuck/stop. When it stuck/stop, need use tools to open the machine to remove the small piece woods before restart. Very hard to use for a normal person.

I looked around at several chippers before deciding on this one. Most other chippers in this size range require you to completely strip the branches prior to feeding into the machine. I liked this one because it was linear in design and the material doesn't have to change direction on discharge costing valuable momentum. Also, the long intake chute compresses the limbs as it nears the chipping blade so you don't have to trim near as much from the limbs. It eagerly gobbles anything you push at it up to 2" on a continuous basis. Anything over that size you will have to feed in short pushes. But, it will eat them. Get a tube of blue thread locker and use it. Things will vibrate loose. I like the extra blade that comes with the machine. Nice to know it's there in case of accidental damage to the original. Tires are sturdy and the unit is easily moved and very mobile. I put an hour meter on mine to keep track of oil life. 20 hrs and counting at this point after about 20-30 mins break in for motor. I love using it and would easily purchase again.

Easy to assemble, starts with one pull. Seems very well made...heavy sheet metal...not flimsy. Does really well with pine branches; okay with hardwoods if you take your time. Makes short work of huge piles of branches. Very happy with it so far. Three month report: The chipper works fine. You have to take your time putting branches in, but it still makes quick work of a large pile of branches. One bolt that holds the discharge chute on is right next to the engine, and works loose constantly....very difficult to tighten properly. A minor issue but the placement of that bolt was not well thought out. For people saying they had carburetor problems, make sure you only use 100% pure gas (no ethanol). This is a must in all small engines.

Is not truly capable of 3" diameter branches. It certainly cannot do thick branches of any appreciable length. I am comfortable feeding any branch of any length at 1-1/2" diameter and short branches up to 2" diameter. You do need to take care with gnarly wood. Curves and forks can be trouble. BUT... I do not think you can find a better chipper at this price. I have had one jam so far and it was easy to clear safely. With regard to assembly it is pretty straightforward. I did make one mistake that cannot be blamed on the product. When I was mounting the feed chute I dropped a mounting bolt into the knives. ARRGH! I had to do quite a bit of disassembly to retrieve that bolt safely. So don't do what I did! Once I had it complete it started easy and ran fine. It has the standard 15:1 size ratio which makes for good chips on a walking path or as mulch. This chipper will get a lot of use over the next few seasons as I clear about 1-1/2 acres of brush on my property. I am also looking forward using it on corn stalks and sunflower stalks from our garden this fall to prepare them for composting. So far I am a satisfied customer.

This is quite a heavy-duty tool for the homeowner with a medium sized property. It was easy to assemble, even for a 76 yr. old. Trees need managing, and this unit takes care of the waste! Decent sized mulch. The chipper should last a long time if properly maintained.

Great for the money. The engine is a little underpowered but it is clearing all my brush up. Have used it for 6 days and it has only jammed twice.

Pas pour les grosse branche. Fomctionne tres bien. 1 pouces de diametre max. 2 sa peux fonctionner mais sa bloque une fois sur deux.

I am always fascinated by how well designed some equipment is in terms of being able to ship it cost effectively and yet assemble it easily and this is a very good example. It works very well and it is a good size for me. I purchased a chipper rather than a chipper/shredder because of the smaller size. So far the only modification I would recommend is slotting the two lower bold holes on the feeder chute. Doing so allows the chute to be removed and installed more easily making it easier to store

Works really well. Was easy to put together
