LawnMaster FD1504 Chipper review

The largest electric capacity here at 1.8 inches, with a bin and a removable axle that cuts storage size by about 50%.

Capacity and storage

A 1.8-inch limit is a tenth of an inch up on the Westinghouse, and the removable axle helps storage.

Weight

It weighs 37.4 pounds, twice the Westinghouse.

Safety

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.
