    I see they have a coupon on their site for 15% off of most of their power tools, through June 30. I tried the coupon on the 20 ton log splitter, and it does work on that, bringing the delivered cost (including freight) to me to $776.

    Hmmm, tempting. Would you buy at that price? I currently mostly split by hand, 4-6 cord / year.

    Don’t think I’d buy anything that expensive at harbor freight. Seems like a person could probably get more quality someplace else for the same or slightly more $$$. Black Friday sales are a good place to watch. Just my 2cent opinion

    HF and hydraulics seems like something I'd avoid. The big box stores get to $800 on sale so that's where I'd be heading.

    My question on a HF wood splitter is what's the warranty like? A good friend runs HF generators for camping adventures, the last one had about 80 hours on it when it self destructed. They replaced it with no hassles.

    I have an HF generator that I have been quite pleased with so far.
