With some basic care/maintenance it will still last you (well, most of us ) for a long time...there are many part time firewood sellers like you using those same box store (YTL made) splitters for many years. A "pro quality" splitter will still suffer from poor care/maintenance just the same...but once you get into the upper end stuff ($6-10k) you might be to the level that it would take some abuse a lil better...
This "abuse" wasnt intentional. The oil wasnt changed enough and i would stop at full throttle many times during a splitting session when i would stop and stack. Unbeknown to me its not good to do that.

I'm telling you buZZsaw BRAD Tommy Lift for the win. Heck, you can even come down and have my old one for free, if I ever get off my ash and get the new to me one painted and mounted. Still works great, just needs a welders touch. No round left behind.
