So after several years of hand splitting and renting a splitter I am finally able to buy one. I have narrowed it down to the Huskee 35 ton and the Ariens 37 ton. I can get the Ariens about 200 cheaper from logsplittersdirect.com. Which one should I go with? I was looking for reviews and most of the threads about the Ariens are from when they first came out and would like some recent insight. Would love to do and Iron and Oak, but would could only swing the 22 ton model, which I believe is not enough for my use (I borrowed a Huskee 22 ton last year and I bogged it down several times). Also, any experience with this company? They are able to offer free shipping and no tax, which is how they can beat tsc. I am going to talk with my Ariens dealer to see if they would match the out the door price and am hoping they will since they are also my Stihl dealer and have spent quite a bit there. Thanks!
