When You Demand Power... This 25-ton full-beam high-powered wood splitter is sturdy enough and powerful enough to handle heavy-duty log splitting jobs. The patent-pending U-Beam design is significantly stronger and more durable than the typical I beam found elsewhere. Powered by a Briggs & Stratton CR950 208cc engine, and ergonomically designed for optimal performance, safety and ease of use, this horizontal and vertical log splitter cuts through wood effortlessly and efficiently, log after log. The size and weight make it a great option for frequent towing. Other features included as standard are protective log cradles on both sides, solid stamped steel fenders, and the patent-pending log spinner plate that reduces stress on the beam.

Q:Any idea when these will be available?? If the cost is the same for the half beam ( as is shown on other sites ) I would be happy to order a half beam as a product substitution if Yardmax can substitute due to lack of availability/"supply chain issues"

Great product!
I have owned this splitter for over a year now and have split many cords of wood. I heat my house 85% of the winter with wood. The splitter has worked great. I had one of the wood strippers bend slightly, they sent me a new one within 3 days. One year later a guide plate broke these are the white plastic plates that are designed to wear. Called them up and a new one is being sent as I write this. The 2 issues I had were minor and expected. I have been using my machine more than an average user. Excellent customer service and warranty!

Awesome!!!!
I rarely write reviews on products but this one I feel deserve a review. First off, my unboxing and assembling wasn't as smooth as their video. Once everything was assemble and added their engine oil that was included and added gas, fired it up. Started on 4th pull and then noticed gas was leaking. One of the screw on the fuel port came off. Lucky I found the screw and put it back in. No more gas leak.
The splitter works great!!! Look at photo of the amount of wood that was split in about 30 minutes. Its not any louder then any other small engine machine. Its very heavy duty. I totally recommend it!

It’s a Beast!
This splitter takes about an hour and two people to assemble. Once it is together you will not be disappointed. It has plenty of power and it cycles very fast with auto retraction. Save your back by swinging it to a vertical position and save time with the included 4 way splitter. Well made, DOT tires, started right up! Great product!

This is the second splitter we bought we have a second home. Very well designed from the crate to the spinner at the end of the beam to reduce stress with gnarly wood. Comfortable working height and the side supports are great . A very rugged well built unit.Glad it was back in stock online so we could order it. Built it in the parking lot and towed it home.

We absolutely love our Yardmax 25-ton splitter! It's our first splitter and after doing tons of research we purchased this one. Assembly was pretty straight-forward with my husband doing 99% of it using the video provided online right on the product page. I just helped steady it while he put the pin in. As for splitting, we were so amazed at how it splits the oak logs like butter. We did about 4 cords of wood our first use and it only slowed down on one log and when we saw it had split right through a huge knot, we were amazed. I operate the lever while he puts on the logs and that goes the fastest. He's split a lot himself too. We've done about 10 cords of wood so far and not a single complaint. We'd recommend this splitter to anyone looking for one and would buy this one again in a heartbeat if we had to do it all over.

You can't get replacement parts for this unit
Yardmax does not return calls and does not have a way to order parts. Call them yourself and you'll see realize this before you actually buy an expensive product that offers absolutely no support and any way to get replacement parts.

Has been reliable so far
Owned for over 1 year now and can say it has proven to be reliable. Powerful enough for our needs which involve breaking down large oak and maple trees over 2' in diameter. Starts easy and runs smooth. A little heavier than the HD rental models.
