There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
First there is many things I do like about this machine, and a few design flaws I don't.
Firstly after only 2 1/2 hrs of splitting I noticed the rails on the tank/beam galling badly . Upon further inspection I found the bracket/shoe on the end of the ram lifts right off the rails , the "Lips " barley even wrap around the rails enough to keep it from coming off ,, undoubtedly that will bend the ram if not addressed.
Second, the ram stops about 2 " from the wedge causing incomplete splitting on stringy type woods or wet wood, I'm splitting dry ash and green maple right now. Adding a small block of wood takes care of that though pushing it all the way through.
Thirdly, the wedge has flat sides with no flare in back and it won't quite spread the wood enough to get a complete split ,,some angled "wings" welded on the back should allow the wood to spread further allowing for better performance and a modification I will make later-on as it will effect the warranty otherwise .
Fourth, and a very small issue, the screw for the vent on the hydraulic tank is not captured to keep it from falling off during operation, I've nearly lost it in the sawdust 2-3 times in the first 2 1/2 hours of use,,,remove it completely and stick it in your pocket or it will definitely get lost in short order or sometimes it vibrates closed. Myself, I'll be replacing mine with with a much better captured vent fitting !
Now on the positive side,,,
There's lots and lots of power for a compact unit with it only struggling some on a couple bigger real knotty pieces. Runs and starts great. Overall quality looks really good other than my ram bracket appearing to be out of spec and to wide to stay on the rails. Very easy to store and maneuver around but it will be much better when I put a tow hitch on it for my garden tractor to pull it down to the South 40.
I contacted customer service about the issue with the ram bracket and No Problem getting a new bracket and as a matter of fact I found Mike @ customer service outstanding to work with and quite helpful so unless there's some snafu getting the part I'm quite happy with the customer service from Champion.
So that's the good and the bad, now I've got about 5- 6 hours of total use on this machine. Honestly other than the small annoying issues I mentioned it's a pretty darn good unit over-all IMHO. We'll see if the new ram bracket takes care of the only major problem I have with this product.
9/24/2019 Review Update,,, After contacting Champion and speaking with Mike all my issues were addressed and the replacement for the out of spec part is in route and will arrive in 3-4 days. I noticed the cylinder did in fact have a bend or got bent the third time the push bracket came off the rails . So either the bracket or cylinder was the issue to start with, either way Champion is sending both to get me back up and running in a timely fashion.
As a master level mechanic in the marine and automotive field for >45 years I found Champions warrentee department and staff OUTSTANDING to work with !!! I only wish as many companies I've worked with over the years did as good a job handling my warrentee issues as Champion has. Top Notch Service !
Owning 2 pieces of Champion power equipment, a generator I've had for a couple years with 0 issues and the great service I've received on my splitter issue,,,I'm now a Champion "fan Boy" and can't say enough good things about them.
From my experiences I can definitely recommend there products and this is where I'll turn for future power equipment purchases ! IMHO you can buy with confidence from Champion and I don't think you'll be disappointed at all.
Once I get this splitter issue resolved I expect just as good things from it as well, just like my generator.
The only drawbacks I have would be no towing capability and like one other reviewer noted, the ram doesn't go far enough to split all the way through the piece of wood. That's another reason to read the reviews. I learned from his review to stick a small 2x4 block behind the wood so it would split all the way through. These are not big issues for me. I am not splitting enough wood that I need to tow it to the site. It is rather compact so it probably wouldn't tow that well behind a truck. But on the other hand it can easily be put in the back of a truck or trailer. I started and stopped it several times and it started on the first pull every time. The next thing I know I looked around and wow, I had a good stack of wood in about 30 minutes. Over all, I am satisfied with the Champion 7 ton wood splitter. If you are just splitting a few cords this is the machine to get it done.
2 years later , still loving the champion. Working great . No issues with it. I have slit some 16 in. Logs I know weighing over 80 pounds because I weighed them.
It has my recommendation
3 years later, still running like a champ. Starts on the first pull. I cut about 2 cords a year. I have put some huge logs on this splitter. The trick to the large logs is to chip away at them until you get them split . But if you just splitting for your home 2 ft. In diameter should be a breeze.
