Somewhere in the fine print of the warranty..."Do not split rocks" Lol.

AFTER I bought my cub zero turn from Home Depot, I learned its better to buy stuff like that from a DEALER.

Wow, you split a rock ! Great video, I love how you test equipment. Great job !

I like these types of videos, getting a lot of tool information. Like that when you bought that truck you pulled it home with, loved that video.

Lowes website advertises that splitter for 2399.00. 1600 is for the smaller one. This is only 11 days after this video was posted

I’ve never seen anyone test a log splitter by splitting a rock I about fell out of my chair laughing but man that one half almost got your buddy. Your a nut Stan enjoyed the video. 👍

my father inlaw bought this last year after years of renting splitters. this unit is great havnt found anything it wont split yet.

Firstly, it's been awhile since I have been able to watch your videos so interesting face wool going on. Now just a suggestion if you're storing this unit outside, consider putting wrapping on the hoses, UV light and rubber are not conducive to a long life and at the cost of replacing is something to consider. Thanks for taking the time to share.

i have a huskee 22 ton i've been crakin with it for at least 10 years now. it is a vert horiz the one biggest issue i have is the trash build up between the splitter head and cylinder face. Thanks for the rock splittin tutorial lol

I bought this exact Log Splitter a few years ago, and it still works Amazing. If there was any cons the table on the side could be a little most heavier duty.

Nice splitter! Ive got the same one in a countyline version. If you get tired of chips loading up in the rail, i put it up vertically, grabbed a big round of wood, sat it by the hydraulic lever, added a cushion on top the round to sit on, and it was the easiest day splitting! And you dont have to lift big heavy rounds!

Always putting the equipment to the test Stan.👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

One ROCKING video. Thanks 😮.

Wow I just bought the 27 ton for virtually the same price you got yours. Works great after maybe 4 hours of use on oak,pine, black walnut and ash.

It's made by Speeco. They make a lot of stuff and put other company's names on it... Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, County Line, Northern Tool, etc... I bought a 22-ton Huskee from Tractor Supply several years ago that was made by them. A decent unit that has served me well so far. Kinda wish they'd built them with the wedge at the end and the push plate at the cylinder. About my only complaint. They make a 37-ton that has the log lifter attached, in case anyone is interested. My lifting is done with a bucket loader. Someone had previously mentioned elm. That was the only wood that was able to stop my splitter dead in it's tracks.

2399.00 at my Lowe’s delivery only. No store pickup. 1600 at yours in house. Wow..market adjustments I guess. I’m in Rhode Island

I don't wear safety glasses often but I cringed when you split that rock.

Another awesome video, great job!

Kinetic splitters are amazing if you have consistent, fairly straight wood and don't try to feed them larger diameter rounds. Where they really start to suffer is when the wood is tangled, tough, or irregular. Need to have fairly regular face cuts as well, angles can try and force the blade off path, against it's stops. Eventually it's blade gets sloppy and you bend the drive rod. If I go old school for the comparison, think of a kinetic splitter like a splitting axe versus the hydraulic which is more akin to the maul. If you could blast through it with the splitting axe, so would the kinetic. If you're thinking it would take a few thumps with the splitting maul, you'd probably want the hydraulic splitter.

Ahhhhh...........Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, ..................Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh !

I rented one of those last year and it split a cord of seasoned live oak without any hesitation.

The same company makes all the log splitters for all the big box stores. I have a county line 40 ton same thing except for the 14 hp Kohler motor and I did get be for your tires with that. I love it it’s quick and I got county lines, four-way wedge, which I love because it’s not a permanent item. I can remove it when I don’t need it and add it back on when I do need it and I’m just a homeowner splitting firewood for myself not a professional nice video I was a little sad seeing the rock getting split

That is one awesome wood splitter I never see anyone split a rock with a wood splitter WOW😮

Looks like a nice splitter I'd add another wedge to make it a 4 way splitter.

Can't wait to see when Ego makes a splinter.

I live in Australia. I thought I could give you a log that could stall that splitter, then you split a rock! Well done.

I remember the race with the son in law and Frankie. I don’t remember you talking in depth about the kinetic log splitter though so I would enjoy that video

I have a 28ton that's basically the same. After a couple seasons with it here's my 2 cents: Get one with a push plate that pushes the wood THROUGH the blade, as opposed to this style that has the blade pushing through the wood. And get one with optional 4, 6, or more blades. And an outfeed table. And possibly a lift arm/working table. Or, looking at that pile of woods behind you, just invest in a "cheap" firewood processor. Something that can just draw up the long trunks, cut at the point of the splitter, split, outfeed, and convey to an IBC tote! But, they aren't cheap, but neither is my time. Love your content!

Leave it to Stan to test...and test....and push....and push...eventually splitting rocks instead of logs.....LMAO!!! Lovin the video Stan!

You need the four way splitter attachment. Makes it way faster. Nice unit. Little slow on the recoil. But beats an axe

Luv tour reviews videos 😊

Unfortunately, not on Lowes website for my location. So I went I Craftsman site and no 32 ton splitter. Only the 27 ton at same price point as this.

Awesome splitter....but his price is way of they are 2399$ was pumped when I saw this then tried to buy one was a little short on cash lol

U da MAN !!! TOO GREAT !! COMBO-Log-Rock splitter !!!

Would love to see a video on a kinetic splitter. I'm currently looking to upgrade my old 22tn Husky with a kinetic splitter but am a little leery. Thanks for the informative videos!

look at split-fire splitters....they rock

Love the videos

Split-fire hands down, splits both ways ram is moving

A new way to split concrete blocks for a retaining wall.

Good to see you're wearing your safety squints

I have the Dirty Hands 22 ton made just like that and they went out of business. You could get a 4 way blade and really go for it. Craftsman 32 ton is no longer sold at my Lowes store, discontinued.

Such a slow return time.

Wow. Nice one Stan. 👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Note to self, never let Dirt Monkey borrow equipment.

Thats more of a craftsman sticker on that and thats it. Is what it is. Itll do its job.

You can chain it vertical to a stump to help break the stump ! Peice by Peice little at a time it works try it out.👌🏻👍don't forget to make small notches for tour chain for vertical grip!

Trying to find this splitter for that price. Lowes is about $700 more than what you paid

A foot petal would be the cherry on top. Two hand control on log would be helpful

thats the best log splitter i ever seen , u th man

Axis UTVs are made by HISUN Motors, who manufacture all of their products in Chongqing, China

Why can’t I find this at Lowe’s in Minnesota? All I am seeing is 27 ton.

Sir, I’m glad I found your content, im starting in my first season of snow removal but so far I can’t find any equipment cheap enough to purchase. I’m out of ways to raise funds for just a truck. I’m building a brine sprayer but a father of four and married takes most of my income from the ambulance, any tips on where I can buy a cheap rig? Or any help out there I can find?

How did you get that model for 1600 bucks, around here its 2400 in SC

Lol, guy dropped the log splitter onto the truck trailer twice with coupler down / closed position.....probably nervous, or never towed before. In his job, can't imagine it is 2nd nature thing, but made me cringe both times -- Even my guys who help tow our equipment around, still do this often & get confused when it won't lock into place.....lol The logs you were splitting were small. Even your biggest one. Then, out of no where you grabbed a big ol' rock, lol -- jesus. Thanks for the videos brother!

Nice splitter! Be careful though, I did something similar with a rock and got a chunk lodged in my left eye. Had it removed in the ER but I couldn’t see out of it for almost 2 months. Would hate to see you guys get hurt

I saw Andrew Camarata or diesel creek have one that runs off of skid steer hydraulics, seemed to work fairly well. Yours is a beast!

Alright... let me give my 2 cents. I have a wood furnace and burn about 8 to 10 cords year. I live in New England with ash, oak, maple,... and some stuff I cant identify..lol. If I cut it down it gets split. \ I dont do it commercially and if you do that is a whole other ball game. I have found guys get crazy on "bigger is better". Guys who do 4 cords a year feel they need something huge. Bigger is not always better. There are very few pieces of wood I cant split with my little 8 ton troy-bilt unit. If I cant split it I just throw it away and move on and I just split 3 ash trees this weekend with only 2 or 3 pieces that I did not split. Honestly I probably7 could have split them if I dicked around but its just not worth the time. Its easy to move around, quick, about 18" off the ground and as the stack goes down I just move it closer... by hand. I can really make good time with it and I have used bigger units and dont save time. When Im done, I just wheel it into the corner of my shed. Unless your getting one with a hydraulic table, your going to bust your ass no matter how many tons it can push. Also, If your burning wood its probably because you like to save money. If your spending thousands on a splitter your not really saving money although some guys love to kid themselves into thinking they are. (80k pickup, 40k tractor, 2k, log splitter, 3k in chainsaws...etc.. and of corse the stuff is all spotless.... yeah, your saving nothing you just like to buy toys) we know the type.

Looks stout, but I’d weld addition onto base and lay down a few “gripper” passes to keep but from slipping out. Some of the old red oak rounds I’ve been getting into are close to 48” at the base,around 28” lengths is what we burn. Usually noodle into halves first then manhandle if able. Nice machine tho

the test is a elm with a y in it that's stringy and tough

When it comes to the tonnage it’s better to have it and not need it than it is to need it and wish you got it.

I agree, Stan never buy. Anything that you're going to be using to it maximum every time you use it. Because it takes all, it's got to do what you need done. You're gonna wear it out far quicker. And that replacement cost is far more than just buying a more powerful machine to start out. That's the same reason I'm not a fan of 4 cylinder pickup trucks me personally, I don't even like a forced cylinder pick up. Yeah, you may have the power with a Turbo, but you're having to dream that thing every time you have a trailer behind it. Whereas if you had AV a, she's pulling that trailer with no effort. And you'd think that 4 cylinder is gonna last as long no way.

I feel like Casidy (sp) just got a log splitter

Just think that log splitter was 899 in 2019! Could have got one end of year clearance in 19 for 699! I waited thought about and by time I went back was gone.

Go with an Eastonmade splitter Stan, you cant go wrong!!

Always in the 20 ton range, this thing looks fast. There was never a log I could not split with a lower tonnage or HP. Just took a for more seconds. I use to cut a lot of wood, like 30 cord a year. Best workout ever skip the gym an cut wood for 4 weekends total of 8 days and you will see. Pick it up, cut it, throw it, load it, unload it, and stack it. Then you need to carry it into the house.. Done cutting wood. Pellets baby. Until I broke my arm picking a bag of pellets up. Still on pellets.

I got into a pinch a couple times and had to use my Splitter to bend ¾in steel plates to fix farm equipment. It did well as a break hehe😂

That Lows employee deserves a raise.

Team Stanley, you are the man, bro.!

😂😂😂😂 CAN'T GO WRONG!!!😂😂😂

Hisun Motors out of texas, looks like Axis is a Lowes exclusive only product

I just want to bring the Eastonmade 22-28 and split wood for a Saturday with the Dirt Monkey

Hit up c&c equipment. They sell a sweet skid steer attachment for processing firewood

After the thirty days where do you bring it to get fixed if something breaks in the warranty. In the north east all of the sears locations are long gone!🤔

Hey hey Stan, hope all is well, I’m in my second year of college now, time sure does fly by. Hey Stan, idk if you got the email I sent you, but I sent you an email that had a link to the local newspaper I was in, it was pretty cool. Anyways Stan, keep all the videos coming, they are all great. God bless and go get em, your pal and friend Alexander costa

Nice spliter. The only thing she is missing is the hydraulic lift platform. Cant be without it. Saves the back and gives you more room to set your chunks for the next split

WOW!!! impressive!!

I would really look hard some of the kinetic splitters are not worth anything.

If that's the Kohler Courage motor, you have to have courage to buy it.

I heard bad things about those UTVs at Lowe’s

looked at Lowes and they only offer the 27 ton.

800 from China I brought myself coupe of it love it.

I think speed co. builds all those. Mine is a county line from TS. Box store splitter.

That’s a log splitter not a rock splitter Stan!! Haha never fail to entertain my man! Holy cow!

There is actually one I saw from Buckin Bill Ray Smith that is a kinetic log splitter called the GRIPO that has a 3 sec cycle time so a little faster of a ram. You should check it out.

That's crazy!

Same manufacturer as the tractor supply ones. But definitely a better warranty. Built in Ohio I believe.

My favorite log splitter is a 10 lb maul, not as effective, but she'll get the job done

Thank you

I would of wanted to know if you have a warranty repair where do you have to take , there service centers ,local or what .

I'd bet a paycheck that that's made by Speeco.. good splitters for "box store" purchase. I have a slightly smaller 28 ton just like it and it has given me excellent service. I looked, and the $1600 price doesn't seem to apply to us out here in the west.. $1600 gets us the 27 ton.

Looks like my country line splitter

Personally I think you would have liked a Tractor supply country time logs litter with a four way wedge Keep in mind the wedge can be removed and just do single double split. Same basic money way better Sometime look up Eastman B o x Wood splitter Weigh more money but a dream.

You should try a eastonmade splitter

That is quite a machine, heavy duty for sure and I am a Craftsmen fan. The only thing that I don't like is the splitting surface area and it was noticeable when your man was splitting. I would never but a splitter that didn't ride ON an I beam, he was constantly pushing debris out of it. Just going online Lowes does not carry the model you chose in stores. I am looking at one on Amazon that is 25 or 27 ton with a Kohler for $1400. Oh, and I am not a Lowes fan unless you are a wife looking for paint and wallpaper! 😁

Nice splitter!

Stanley your theme song has to be push it to the limit one more time

be careful with getting carried away doing more than one log or split at a time thats how a friend of mine dislocated his shoulder after it shot off the splitter.

Affordable Quality! Not "cheap" the cheaper items weren't shown 🤔👍🤙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👌

Lowes sold you the oil required for operation with the log splitter?

Stan. Check out Easton Made log splitters you will be blown away by that power. I have the 12 22 box wedge splits 7 pcs in 1 push
