Pros
- A slow turning silent mechanism is far quieter than the usual high speed blade chippers, so it is easier on neighbors
- Cuts waste to about a twentieth of its volume, so a pile of prunings fits in a few bags of mulch
- Collection bag included, so chips go straight into a container
- Push button start with no fuel or tune ups
Cons
- At about 39 lb it is heavier than most small electric chippers
- Branches near the 1.73 in limit go in slowly, so big storm cleanups take a long time
- Costs more than blade type 15 A chippers with similar capacity

For yards where a light, easy to move chipper matters more than fine mulch. The GS70015 is the better buy at the current Amazon prices.

For property owners who want gas class capacity and leaf shredding without engine noise or upkeep, and will pay for it. Casual users are better served by a $150 chipper.
