Any experience of this splitter?

Rock Machinery Venom 12tonne electric; anyone got one, used one or know anything about them? Keen to get some objective, unbiased and honest opinion on its function.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I was impressed with this Portek machine. Seems to split logs that I cannot split with the X27 and is half the price of the Rock Venom and many times faster.

I see Rock also do a similar kinetic one but at twice the price of the Venom

That looks good, I wonder how it would cope with gnarly, seasoned ash, oak or apple rings?

It would probably struggle but there again the 12 ton might too.

Why else would they build A 22 Ton version.

I bought the Portek for my wife who is a liability with an axe but I was quite impressed with what it can do for the price
