Under $750 covers electric splitters and smaller gas models with force ratings that handle most firewood for a typical home. Electric units are quiet and need no fuel but are limited to modest log sizes, while the cheaper gas models give more force at the cost of noise and upkeep.
Look at the cycle time, since a slow ram turns a cord of wood into a long afternoon, and at the log length and diameter the beam will take. Check whether it works vertically as well as horizontally, how heavy it is to move, and whether it has a wedge height or guard that suits your splitting.
