Mike's Recommendation
Our Best pick is a special purchase that offers a lot of bang for your buck.
The Cub Cadet LS27CC 27-ton log splitter is the same as the model Cub Cadet LS27CCHP. Same ram, same cycle time, same frame and tow package. The big difference is the more expensive 5.5HP Honda-powered Engine- and the price tag.
Logsplittersdirect.com is able to offer you the same quality machine with an upgraded, reliable, Honda-powered engine for the same price as the model with a Cub Cadet-powered engine: $1699.99.
The closeout opportunity on this model is limited and they will sell out fast. Order yours today!

My Honda powered ls27cc splitter
I received my splitter about 2 weeks ago. The trailor that delivered it could not back up my driveway so we loaded it into the back of my pickup and I assembled it in the pickup bed and got it on the ground with ramps and my loader tractor. The only damage I found on the unit was a crease in the honda's muffler cover which was very minor.
The splitter was fully filled with oil and ready to go after adding gas. I have split approximately one cord of heavy red oak to date...18 to 25 inch diameter and very green. The vertical feature is really nice and very quick.
The splitter will come to a stop when encountering big knots but will then power right on through. Everything about this machine reeks of quality.
I am well pleased with my purchase and would definitely recommend Log Splitters Direct to any one. I particulary liked the comparing of three splitters in the good, better, best catagory's and the reason for each by their splitter expert.
I plan on ordering the splitter cover as my next purchase.

Long Time shopping for best deal
Surprised to see the splitter assembled and full of engine oil and hydraulic fluid. Engine in advertised photo was a horizonal shaft but mine a vertical shaft.
Has split everything I have thrown at it. Automatic return doesn't stay in return mode all the time.Overall happy with purchase.

LS27CC Same as Troy Bilt
The Cub Cadet is an excellent logsplitter. Able to split bigger logs in the horizontal position than specs say.

Life just got easier-
With high energy costs I cut and split fire wood to feed a sometimes very hungry woodstove.
This unit so far, exceeds all my expectations in quality-performance and power. It was shipped in an almost completely assembled stage- has far higher quality parts than similar big box store models (metal fenders,a boat trailer like wheeled jack stand, light kit for towing to name a few).
It appears it will handle the test of time well ! Highly doubtful there is a better unit out there for the money..

Awesome splitter
From start to finish, this splitter is tops.
It arrived, mostly assembled in a wood crate. Even already had hydraulic fluid added!
Removing from crate and assembly took less than an hour.
Honda engine starts like a charm -- and runs so smoothly.
The splitter's power is absolutely amazing, cutting through my pine logs like butter. I just finished splitting logs from an old stand tree -- massive diameter. No problems.
It's still early, of course, but I am completely satisfied -- and know my firewood splitting next year will be MUCH faster and easier with this baby at my side.

From macho to mellow
For years I thought splitting fire wood was the manly thing to do. But , after trauma and arthritis rendered my shoulders in capable of swinging a maul I decided to purchase a hydraulic log splitter.
I had no idea what size or type I needed but was definitely sure I wanted something bigger than my neighbor's electric hydraulic splitter. I choose the Cub Cadet because it had a Honda enging. I was not disappointed.
After delivery and a modest amount of time 'assembling' (put the tow bar on, set the cylinder and moving one side of the log carriage) and checking the oil and hydraulic fluid, and adding gas, I started my new machine literally with one pull to prime and one pull to start the engine.
I have been splitting fir, hemlock, cedar and some maple bucked to eighteen inch lengths with diameters of up to thirty inches with no trouble except for moving some of the heavier logs into position.
It is a remarkable machine.

Great service in helping me determine what to buy.
Outstanding job in meeting strict shipping requirements!
Assembly was easy - buy you will need to add hydraulic fluid!!! Splitter worked like a champ, no issues at all...
