It's weird that there's no reverse feed on this... The bigger, more industrial ones, like the Vermeer 6 inch chipper, has a reverse feed, so if something gets stuck, you can use the reverse feed to take it out.
You gotta compare apples to apples. This is a 3in maybe acre or two home use machine that requires prep and patience that comes in under a grand after taxes. The machine you're describing is an entire different level of capacity in workload as well as price. A three day rental on a 6in vermeer in Tennessee will buy the 338 champion. The champion is a good machine but it's a sub grand machine, you get what you pay for.

I wish!

Specially for up to 3 inches diameter
1k+ I was not aware they were so expensive.
Some are less but have a smaller engine, so I opted for this one
Free mulch :-)
I should have a bunch when I'm done!
