it has a honda engine...supposedly the best. as for parts....other than the engine...what can wear out? and, usually if anything does break, most people build their own replacement or buy another brand to replace anything. it does have a two stage pump, but at 11GPM, the second stage must be kinda slow.
for the homeowner who doesn't care if they split 5 cords of wood per day, it's probably comparable to any others in the same price/tonnage range.
the link to their web site isn't available for some reason......?
