Had one, if you enjoy clearing jams get one.
The only stuff it does well is stuff I can snap with my hands and put in the green bin.

Sprint ...seriously they're a waste of money IMO. My hubby wanted one (only because one of our neighbours got one) and he only used it twice. It's now sitting in the garage and only half works (when it feels like it).

We found it's far easier and certainly cheaper to cut stuff and then throw this in the green recycling bin (we have a share our neighbourhood green bin system happening here which works well).

We also have 2 council clean ups per year so again we cut and tie large branches and pile them up at the kerb for these 2 occasions.

I don't see any emergency stop button or any
stop bar on this product.
How could it meet safety regulations?
