1.0 out of 5 stars Peice of junk, March 4, 2008

This review is from: Swisher 120-Volt Electric Log Splitter 12800 (Lawn & Patio)

This thing never worked. When I received it, I plugged it into an outlet, and followed the instructions. The motor wouldn't spin, and only made a buzzing noise. I took off the fan cover (which was put on very poorly) and manually spun the fan while holding the on switch. The motor kicked on, but as soon as I turned on the hydrolic pump, the motor shut off. It was as though the motor could not handle the power of the hydrolic.

This thing was such a peice of junk, I didn't want to exchange it and requested a full refund. So far, Amazon was the best web site I have ever used for a return. It was very easy, and they refunded my money very quickly.
