Pros & Cons
Pros
Everything about this shredder is quality / top notch. Couldn't be happier. If i was to give it a thorough critiquing, there are some design features i would tweak a bit.
As a homeowner with a modest sized lawn that is heavily treed, it is the right size for our mulching and chipping needs. It handles 99% of the organic material that falls onto the lawn. The fine quality of mulch makes the hassle of unclogging it and a... Read More
One improvement i suggest to patriot is that they make it easier to clean out clogs. I find adding the leaves into the hopper requires some finesse - you have to add the leaves slowly or it will jam. When processing leaves, it really helps to stir the... Read More
Iit is quieter than a gas engine. It is also the quietest of any i have had. I wear ear protection when i mulch, but it is not nearly as noisy as a gas powered machine.
The patriot csv-2515 is a great chipper shredder for yard clean up and leaf shredding. There is a single chipper blade that requires sharpening every 30 +/- hours. Recommend to buy an extra blade for rotation and a sharpening stone.
Cons
This chipper is very underpowered with a dinky 1. It creates as many long slivers (2-4 inches) as it does chips. The percentage of slivers keeps decreasing each pass through the chipper, but it is tedious and tiring.
Feeding down through the top quickly causes a jamb. The catch bag is ok, but as it starts to fill it can back up and seriously jam this unit.
Highlights
Quality
The unit is heavy duty and pretty well made
It is a very well built machine welldesigned and clearly meant to last for years of heavy use
Screws that allow access to the chipper blade become frozen and makes resharpening an ordeal
It didnt last a year before 2 of the cutting blades broke and the plastic shell shattered around the bolt holes probably from t... Read More
Price
This is one where the expense is worth it to get something that works
It’s a bit pricey and i haven’t sharpened the chipper blades yet

Packaging/appearance
I was very impressed with the packaging of the motor unit

Box was marked that it weighed 112 lbs
The great packaging that made it difficult to get it out of the box also protected the machine beautifully during shipping
Competitiveness
I bought that way back when troy bilt machines were actually being built in troy ny instead of china
I compared with other machines this price is average
34green is best when chipping 34 but more important is a sharp blade
