Has anyone heard of a "Value Leader" wood chipper? Here is what they say about it (4"), and the guy at farmequipmentsales.com says my Kubota BX25 (with 17.5 PTO HP) can handle it if I keep the branches down to about 3" (which is fine with me.)

Here is what they say about it on their website:

It's a Chinese knockoff of a Wallenstein. Buyer beware.

May want to look at Woodmaxx - they seem to be becoming popular.

If the suppler is in Oregon, my neighbor bought one and drove to Oregon to save on "free" shipping. We were cutting down and processing a large eucalyptus orchard.

Two weeks later, he was on the road to Oregon again to return it.

Lots and LOTS of trouble with the self-feeder. Generally, a very cheaply made machine that was constantly needing adjustment and modification.
