Very pleased
Unit started on first pull and has done so every time since.I chose FREE shipping method of delivery. Only took 10 days. I was expecting to wait a month or better. I have split about 2 cords of wood so far, some hard wood but mostly pine. It has plenty of power for my needs. Even split a few tree rounds 40 inches in diameter with no trouble but that was (easy to split) pine.

Very nice machine
I rent a log splitter every year and then HUSTLE to get all the wood split in two days. By the end of those two days, everybody is pretty sore and beat up. I finally decided to get my own so I can split wood at my own pace. This machine is well designed and easy to use. The Honda engine is quiet and started on the very first pull! I split some large oak and while it does slow down on the hard stuff, it doesn't stop. The ram and wedge seem very durable. I don't think this splitter is designed to run for several hours on end. For that kind of use, the next size splitter is probably better. But, who wants to split wood for several hours on end anyway? This is a great deal.

Orderd on Jan 19 2004
Recieved this spliter after almost 2 months. It works like a dream. It started on the first pull after filling with gas and oil. Buy this you will love it.

Potential Customer
I like the way everything was there for review and especially all the specifcations of the unit in question. Only thing I would add would be how much the actual shipping cost would be. I didn't purchase the equipment because of that. ... Read more

Great Splitter
After facing two back surgeries in two years, and hand splitting wood for 40 years previously, I realized swinging the splitting maul was no longer a option. I researched several different brands of electric splitters over a 6 month period and finally decided on the FISCH LS 8000 4 Ton Electric Log splitter.
When I received shipment,which was only 5 days,the external packaging appeared normal,but opening the package was another story. I discovered several pieces of broken plastic, that came from a shattered electrical box, and a missing bolt for the leg assembly. I found a bolt in my shop and a roll of duct tape, finished assembly and plugged the unit in. I immediately challanged the splitter with some small diameter slab wood, next a green 12 in. block of stringy White Elm, and finally a knotty piece of green Ironwood. The little 4 Ton FISCH, said good by to all of them. I can hardly wait to use it again. I emailed the Company Direct, and within a day I received a email message and a phone call to confirm that they would ship the damaged electrical box and missing nut and bolt. My back is feeling great!

Great Compact Splitter
I needed a splitter that would be easy to manage, and the Fisch LS-8000 certainly lives up to its product information. I have had the splitter for about two months and have been very pleased. I wasn't expecting this kind of splitting efficiency for the money. In addition to my being able to easily move the splitter by hand from one location to the next, I am amazed at how this small but very sturdy piece of equipment easily splits hard wood. It is fast and efficient and actually can do a log greater than the recommended diameter of 12 inches, although most of my wood has been around the 12 inch range or slightly less. It does require the use of two hands simultaneously but that actually turns out to be a nice safety feature. So far, I have cut a variety of wood without any difficulty. Delivery of this product took around four weeks.

Great Machine for Splitting Logs
My extended family has always enjoyed a good fire during the winter months, and when given the opportunity to harvest several nice oak trees, I jumped at the chance and began to investigate both gas and electric log splitters. Gas log splitters were out of my price range, so I narrowed my choice to electric and settled on the Fisch. I read all the reviews, helpful hints and owner's manual thoroughly before starting to split my initial 4 cords of wood. To be quite honest, this machine outperformed my expectations completely. Not only did it split logs that were wider than 12" in diameter, it did them when they were freshly cut, with no hesitation nor sticking. I sprayed the wedge with cooking spray before every log and rarely had any problems at all with the logs not splitting completely after the cycle. To make the splitter operate at best effeciency, I would recommend following the owner's manual completely (spraying the wedge before each log, opening the air screw, checking on hydraulic fluid regularly) and of course, clean the splitter from time to time to reduce the amount of goop accumulating on it. In one weekend, I cut and split enough wood for both myself, my two sisters, and my father...over 4 cords of wood. With seasoned wood going for about $150.00 per cord, it paid for itself immediately. I would not hesitate at all to buy this machine, as I was more than pleasantly surprised by its performance.

Wish I had bought this earlier
What a great little device. I was able to split 16-20 diameter wet (cut down a week ago) Red Oak without problem. What was really great was being able to split smaller diameter branches that would be very difficult to do with an ax/maul. I also made several 'spacers' of 1x4 inch stock to keep the ram from returning all of the way back. That way it took less time on shorter logs to reach the log. Just place it on top of the rail and when the ram returns is hits the spacer.

Good machine -- not unlimited power.
I have to agree with Dallas Walters in that the machine does not have unlimited power -- as you would expect from an electric model. It will stall on bigger and tougher pieces. But it also splits logs within it's specified size range easily. Using two guys we split a load of dense dry pine in a very short time. Quiet enough to not disturb the wildlife.

When I received the machine and unpacked it I found that two nuts that hold the handle and wheels unit had come loose and fallen out of the handle holes of the shipping box, or they had not been included to begin with. So, had to go to the hardware store for an acorn nut and a locking nut before we could set it up and try it. Also, don't lose the manual. Nothing is clearly labeled (like the fill/drain hole -- it looks like just another bolt head).

Overall I am pleased with the machine, and hoping it will hold up to a lot of splitting on our heavily treed lot! ... Read more

Firewood Rack
I especially like that you can build a firewood rack that is 2 tiers. I put the small pieces on top and larger logs on the bottom. It went together in just a few minutes.

Does the job, but does not dazzle
What can you expect from 12 bucks worth of recycled plastic? I guess I'd gone and expected something a little more sturdy and ingenious, and while I was satisfied I was not impressed with what I got. This is simply a couple of plastic brackets that will allow sets of 2x4s to form whatever structure you're building. It'll do the job, but nothing more.

Note that this is simply two (2) of the exact same brackets that you can buy in a six pack (6) at lower cost from Finley. ... Read more
