Works great when properly adjusted and sharpen. It pulls the branches in but wider branches can be a bear to push through. I would only buy one with the hydraulic feed now, makes the job a breeze. Valby makes models that have a tank and pump or it can run off your tractor hydraulics. Chippers are expensive($4000 up)and the self- feeders are 50% more at least. My Valby is well built(Finland) and I am very pleased with it.
