Product Review: LawnMaster FD1501 Electric Chipper Shredder
Company: Amazon
Price Range: $150 - $200
Who Would Buy This: Those shopping for a light-duty electric chipper shredder for chipping small branches up to 1 ½ inches or shredding leaves.
Pros:
The LawnMaster FD1501 is designed for high portability. This lightweight machine weighs just 25.5 pounds and features two large 8-inch wheels to allow for easy move ability around your yard.
The 15 amp motor packs enough power for continuous usage and runs very quietly. To ensure maximum longevity, built-in overload protection shuts down the machine in the event that it becomes overloaded by the user.
The unit is capable of shredding branches up to 1 ½" in diameter with an impressive 10:1 mulch ratio. A push stick is included to make lighter work of getting leaves and branches into the machine.
The 2-sided 8-inch steel chipper blade comes complete with a blade changing tool so you can swap out the blade easily once it becomes dull.
Clearing any jams is a quick and easy task. Just turn of the machine, unscrew the knob at the rear of the unit then remove the cover.
The rear collection bag has a large 15.85 gallon capacity so you can collect plenty of chips in a tidy fashion without regular emptying.
Cons:
This is only suited for light-duty use. For thicker branches, we recommend a heavy-duty machine with a larger hopper.
The stated thickness which the machine can handle only applies to dry soft woods, not hardwoods.
Guarantee: 2-year warranty.
