16 Products

SuperHandy is where most people start. Sixteen machines covering wood chippers, log splitters, a stump grinder and a towable leaf vacuum, priced from 180 dollars for a leaf vacuum kit up to 2,400 for a 5-inch towable chipper. If you have a property to maintain and not a business to run, this is the range built for you.

The chippers are the heart of it, eight models plus a 120V electric leaf mulcher. They run from compact 7HP 212cc units handling 3-inch branches, through a 9HP 4-inch model, up to towable 15HP 420cc chippers with electric start at 4 and 5-inch capacity. There is also a combination leaf vacuum chipper and a vacuum kit accessory.

On splitting, four gas models cover 20, 25, 27 and 37 tons, and a 14-ton 120V corded electric model handles indoor and near-the-house work where noise and fumes matter. The 37-ton runs a 389cc engine with a 24-inch maximum log length.

One thing to know before you buy: the 120V electric leaf mulcher is for leaves and light yard waste, not branches. If you need to chip real limbs, choose one of the gas models. Our Wood Chippers collection compares the whole category.

Why SuperHandy

  • Accessible Pricing: The most affordable route into chipping, splitting and stump grinding that we stock.
  • Nine Chipper Options: More chipper choice than any other brand in the store.
  • Electric and Gas: Corded electric where noise matters, gas where the work is.
  • Towable Models: 15HP 420cc electric start chippers that follow you around the property.

How to Choose a SuperHandy Machine

  • Branch Diameter: 3 inches covers routine yard cleanup. Step to 4 or 5 inches for storm damage and acreage.
  • Towable or Wheeled: Compact models stay near the driveway. Towable models come to the brush pile.
  • Electric Start: Worth it on the 15HP machines if you stop and start through a day.
  • Splitter Tonnage: 20 tons for seasoned softwood, 27 to 37 for hardwood and knotty rounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does SuperHandy make, and where does the brand fit?

SuperHandy sits at the entry end of the market. The range covers wood chippers, log splitters, a stump grinder, leaf and lawn vacuums and an electric leaf mulcher, at prices that start under $300 and mostly stay below $2,500. These are homeowner and light-duty machines. If you are clearing your own acreage a few weekends a year, that is exactly the right tool. If you are running a crew five days a week, look at the commercial brands instead.

Which SuperHandy wood chipper should I buy?

Work down from branch capacity. The Compact at $600, the Mini at $630 and the Pro at $830 all handle 3-inch branches on a 7HP gas engine, and the difference between them is build and mulch ratio rather than capacity. The 4-inch model at $970 steps up to a 9HP engine. Above that you are into towables: the 4-inch towable at $2,100 and the 5-inch towable at $2,400, both with 15HP electric start and a trailer coupler. Anything you tow needs somewhere to tow it from, so only step up to those if you are moving the machine between sites.

What is a mulch ratio, and does it matter?

The mulch ratio tells you how much the machine reduces what you feed it. A 15:1 ratio means fifteen wheelbarrows of brush come out as one. It matters when the constraint on your day is how many trips you make to the dump or the burn pile, not how fast you can chip. The SuperHandy Pro and Compact chippers run 15:1, the leaf vacuum runs 10:1 and the electric leaf mulcher runs 17:1. Leaves compress far better than woody brush, which is why the leaf machines post higher ratios.

Which SuperHandy log splitter matches my firewood volume?

Tonnage should follow the wood you split, not the biggest number in the range. The 14-ton electric at $1,060 runs off a 120V outlet and handles seasoned softwood and smaller hardwood rounds up to 20 inches. The 20-ton at $1,160 and the 25-ton at $1,700 cover most home firewood work. The 27-ton at $1,800 and the 37-ton at $2,300 are for green hardwood, knotty rounds and anything up to 24 inches. If you are unsure, tell us what species you are splitting and how green it is, because seasoned pine and green oak are completely different jobs at the same diameter.

Is the electric log splitter or leaf mulcher powerful enough for real work?

Within their limits, yes, and the limits are worth knowing before you buy. The 14-ton electric splitter and the 1800W electric leaf mulcher both run on standard 120V household power, which caps what they can draw. That gives you no fuel, no fumes, no pull-starting and quiet enough to run near a house or inside a garage. What it does not give you is the sustained grunt of a gas engine on green hardwood or wet, matted leaves. If you work near an outlet on manageable material, electric is the easier machine to live with.

Is the SuperHandy stump grinder enough for my stumps?

The Compact Stump Grinder Pro at $1,000 runs a 9HP gas engine with a 13-inch cutting blade and 6 hardened alloy teeth. That is well suited to occasional stumps on a home property, particularly softwood and anything under about a foot across. For large hardwood stumps, or for grinding stumps regularly, the extra teeth and engine size on a dedicated machine will pay for themselves in time saved and wear avoided.
