Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Save on Chippers, Shredders & Mulchers
I ordered the chipper on Monday morning and it was delivered Tuesday by noon. Works great. I have 5 acres with woods and many pine trees. Some with vines (Nightshade) growing on them. The chipper handled everything. Put the limbs into the limb opening with the branches facing you and it pulls them in. The hopper is tricky. Easy to overload and it pulls hard and fast when it catches something. Not for kids or the careless or the weak. Nice fuel shutoff for storing without gas in the carburetor. Starts easy which is good because it’s a beast to pull the starter cord and the engine is not moving fast. It’s heavier than I thought and I will probably buy the tow bar. One missing nut (metric threads) and the bottom of the hopper was bent on arrival (as reported in other reviews). The plastic piece that is supposed to protect the hopper bottom (“Discard this piece”) was not effective. Both easy fixes. I would recommend for a large home where an electric chipper would not be easy to connect or strong enough.Read full review

The description saying this unit will chip 3" branches is optimistic. The best I could get it to chip was maybe 2" and even then only if the wood was old. I was trying a branch just over an inch in diameter that had been cut last fall and it was not being chipped, just bouncing in the chute. When I pushed harder the unit slowed down. The plastic throttle control kept falling off. This shedder/chipper may be fine for a homeowner with only a small amount of leaves to shred but the chipper didn't actually chip...it shredded the few pieces of dried branches. Not worth the money, sorry.

The Tazz K32 Chipper Shredder is a solid well-built machine at a great price. It started up on the first pull and did a good job of chipping my pile of pruned wet and dry tree branches and brush. The 212cc Viper engine did not lack in power and made quick work of the pile. Even at 120 pounds, the chipper is easy to maneuver around (probably due to the large wheels). The U-shaped stand makes it stable and it is at a good working height (hopper is 34 inches high). The overall height with handle is less than 42 inches high. I note this only because all of the published dimensions by Earthquake/Ardisam list the height as 51.9 inches--clearly a clerical error. Some comments about assembly: The fabricated parts are good quality and a good fit with the supplied fasteners. i suggest that you stuff an old towel into the shredder infeed during assembly to avoid dropping nuts or bolts in there. Don't forget to take it out! The mounting flange of the hopper was bent slightly. It appeared to have been packaged that way. I've read other reviews about this, so it must be common. Many of these other reviewers had an issue with the damper binding as a result. I used a carpenter square and a pair of slipjoint pliers to very carefully check and straighten the flange. This seemed to work and the damper worked fine for me after assembly. Don't forget to add the oil!Read full review

It was shipped right on time . there was no damage to product and shipping container. The directions to put it together were good and everthing was there. It seems to be built good and solid. Everything is of good quality and solid. I haven't had a chance to use it yet because of the bad weather. Will report on that later.
