A low cost chipper for dry prunings that still takes nearly 1.8 in branches. Check the warranty with the seller before buying.

For light, occasional cleanup of dry twigs on a tight budget. Spend a little more on the FD1503 for bigger branches and finer mulch.

The value pick among small electric chippers: 1.8 in capacity and a 14:1 ratio for little more than budget models. Good for regular pruning in a suburban yard.

A light, inexpensive chipper for dry twigs and small branches in a suburban yard. Buyers with a lot of green wood should look at heavier models.
