Forst??

[welwell]

So, I know it's been covered a few times, I'm looking to replace our old chipper and I really like the look of Forst and the cut of Redwood's jib.

 

Any feedback on pro's / con's would be greatly received.

 

Out of interest guess what the other machine I've looked at is????????

 

Yep.......Jensen

Just bought my second forst, great machines and fantastic back up from Redwood.

I've just bought my third Jensen.

Got a really good deal from Arbrep Services who have looked after my previous machines with an exemplary level of service.

I also have a tracked jensen ant that is a great machine,be a hard call between the two but I reckon the jensen will be dearer due to the exchange rate, certainly my local jenny dealer is about 2k more than a forst!

Second that, terrific customer service to date with a replacement axle sent FOC with no quibbles.

We have an St6,Tr6 and my favourite the mighty TR8!

St8 for me, fantastic machine and knocked the socks of the class competition we had on demo, Jenson 540 is probably on par with a few different features but it really comes down to what deal you can get and who you want to deal with.

I personally liked the fact I was dealing directly with the manufacturer so in theory parts and problems should be sorted faster.

Tr6 for us...had a problem with the computer on it but Redwood sorted it asap. My only niggle is the blades are a pita to change compared to TW.

Really? I find them dead easy to do, You want to try changing quadchip blades then you will know what fiddly is!

Yeah i am not the biggest fan, seems awkward to get socket on and slacken em off, even worse if the blade drops down
