Landworks 7 HP 3 in Chipper review

A 7 HP gas chipper that handles 3-inch branches, sold on a compact rotor design with an extended hopper.

A real step up

A 3-inch capacity handles what 1.7-inch electric machines cannot, without an extension cord.

Ownership

It needs fuel, oil and maintenance. The listing is clear on fuel type and capacity.

Protection

Wear eye and hearing protection, feed material only with the supplied push stick or paddle, and never reach into the hopper. The manual sets the limit on what the machine can take.

The way we judge this lawn equipment

The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
