Customers are mixed about the durability of the tool. Some mention it's well built, heavy duty, and will last forever. However, others say that it came apart and is not as durable as one may think. The rubber handle splits easily.

"...It is not the fastest way to split wood but it is much lower impact on the body than swinging a sledge or maul...." Read more

"...The wood had not been seasoned long; some ends had not begun to split yet...." Read more

"...They are not all alike. Northern sells the best, slightly heavier duty, better welds, and a superior lock nut mechanism...." Read more

12 customers mention4 positive8 negative

Customers are mixed about the weight of the slide hammer. Some mention that it's heavy enough to do the job, while others say that it is too heavy for them to swing effectively.

"...The ax that came with the house is too heavy for me to swing effectively, so I had been hammering the ax through the wood with a 3-pound sledge...." Read more

"It works great and the slide hammer is heavier than I imagined...." Read more

"...and it will put a great deal of strain on your lower back, as it is pretty heavy...." Read more

"...The only possible downside is the splitter itself is very heavy. But I think that’s why it works so well. I couldn’t be more pleased!" Read more

Customers dislike the stickiness of the tool. They mention that it snags on itself and locks up every few strokes. The internal slide mechanism is a bit sticky at first and it would tend to stick in the extended position. However, it will eventually crack and start to slip.

"...stored on it so better put it in your safest pocket, the silicone grip slid right off making it totally useless and I had to glue it back on, it..." Read more

"...Then it came apart. When It gets stuck and it will get stuck in the wood, i hammered it UP and the weld inside the handle didn't hold and came apart...." Read more

huge, knotty hardwoods with branch stumps attached cut like butter (pic)
I am new to fireplaces and log-splitting. The ax that came with the house is too heavy for me to swing effectively, so I had been hammering the ax through the wood with a 3-pound sledge. It wasn't easy, and it was extremely loud. And there was a definite limit to how large log I could split that way without the ax getting stuck half-way through the log.Compared to that method, using this log splitter is a breeze. First let me say that the wood had not been stacked, but dumped randomly in the mud and exposed to constant rain, so it was pretty darned wet. The wood had not been seasoned long; some ends had not begun to split yet. Many of the logs (which also came with the house) are larger than 15 inches in diameter, mostly cherry and pine. Many are as long as 3 feet. It doesn't seem to matter how big the log is. Many of the cherry trunks had had several very large branch stumps (up to 4 inches long and 8 inches in diameter) attached to them, making the wood extremely hard and knotty. That doesn't matter either; the splitter usually goes right through the knots and splits the branch as well. It also doesn't seem to matter that some of the cross-cuts are slanted; as long as I prop up the log some way (like between my boots) and get in the first couple of gentle drops to set the blade, that log is going to split.If only gravity is used, the log will split; if a little force is added, it splits about three times as fast.When I had first started spitting wood with the ax and sledge, I had assumed that the huge, branching logs were either going to rot in the pile, or someone bigger than me was going to have to split them. But I was seriously having so much fun splitting logs that I would have spent the whole day doing it if I hadn't had to get to an appointment.I will say that, while I did split a lot of wood bare-handed, using heavy gloves is better. Also, there are better techniques, and worse ones. I watched a couple of youtube videos of people using devices like this. It's much better for your hands to forcefully fling the weight down and let go of the weight BEFORE it hits the blade, than to keep your hands on the weight through the entire stroke. Since the tool holds itself upright as soon as it gets set in the wood, usually after one or two gentle drops, it's easy to do that. Logs with slanted or jagged ends can simply be propped up between other logs. After doing it incorrectly the first day, every joint in my hands was swollen and achy. If you are a newbie, I highly recommend watching some videos first.The splitter is loud. I use Mack's wax earplugs, and try to use the tool on a day when the neighbors are using noisy machines.UPDATE: I added a photo to show a log that I should not have attempted to split; the tool is also pictured for scale. I had been having fun splitting logs that were 13 inches long and 10 inches in diameter. I decided I needed a challenge. The first challenge log was 30 inches long and 6 inches in diameter, and had a branch stump that was 10 inches long and 6 inches in diameter. This log split easily; the main challenge was holding the log in an upright position. The second challenge log was 20 inches long, 14 inches wide, a bit damp, and had several 5-inch branch stumps. I realized my mistake once the head of the tool was about 2 inches into the large log. I wanted to give up, but then I couldn't get blade back out. The problem is, unlike an ax, there is littlehope of rocking or beating the blade out because it is clamped in a perfectly square hole, and the handle is perfectly smooth and round with no outcropping to hammer at. I spent an hour using a hand ax with a sledge to open more cracks, but that didn't loosen the tool at all. Then I tried slowly chipping little bits away--that didn't work either. So I was committed to finishing the job with the splitter. It didn't take more force or strength, just a lot more patience and time than the smaller logs needed. The smaller log-split at the bottom of the pic was used as a wedge to hold open the crack in the large log. I needed to use the wedge because the crack was not opening as fast as the blade was sinking into the log, and the handle got jammed against the wood. To use the wedge, I just set it edge-down in the crack, dropped the tool's handle once or twice, pushed the wedge down a little with my foot, and repeated this process until the split was complete. Though I was successful in the end, I'm disinclined to try to split more logs this big! Splitting the halves into smaller pieces should be easier. I think it was also an energy-saver to drop the weight a couple of times, then rest for 15-60 seconds as the log audibly continued to split itself.
