Replaced my aging flail topper with the MDL heavy duty verge mower and no looking back. Great product, and they looked after me with a few spares I wanted.

Very impressed with this splitter. Better specifications than any other machine i’ve seen in this price range and extremely well built. Also nothing much to go wrong unlike other over-complicated machines! I bought a chipper from MDL around a year ago and that has been a brilliant machine so when I wanted a log splitter I came back! Thanks

Replaced an old splitter with this 37 ton machine. everything is oversized and overengineered which gives confidence. seriously impressive power and easy enough to tow on the quad, despite being rather heavy.

Replaced a trusty but aged splitter with this and its been the right choice. No log is safe with this thing – I’ve had rounds that would have not even been dented with my last splitter go through this like they’re not even there. The power on it is amazing. Very happy with it and the staff were great.

Me and a friend clubbed together to buy the 37t machine. Been ideal for us both, and we sell some to neighbours on occasion. No troubles so far, and we can’t fault it. Didn’t realise how much we needed it as been using an electric one previously which was just a toy compared to this.

Super heavy duty without a doubt. I was quite taken aback when it arrived because it was bigger than it looked on the photos and videos. Changed the handle on mine so I can operate using one hand.

top machine with no complaints there, but delivery service was bad – arrived with handles damaged. mdl offered to exchange but we settled on a deal to save hassle. Its only a splitter but still disappointing with it being new.

Jolly happy chappy here. Nothing stops this splitter, absolutely nothing. 10/10 for service and 10/10 for the product. Special thanks to Charles for sorting out a minor issue we had with the spare wheel I ordered with it.

Bought on the back of using a friends one so i already knew what i wa getting and its a tool and a half. Can use it folded upright on the bigger stuff, but its quite heavy to tilt over. Enough force for any log even knotty pieces.

Had mine for nearly 2 month now, and it’s been phenomenal to be fair. Goes through material so well and I’ve never had it struggle or strain, nothing. Loads of power off the big sized ram it has on there. Pleased with the investment.

No stopping this thing. The hydraulic cylinder is almost comical in size and splits absolutely anything and everything without hardly the slightest concern. The guys are good to deal with, good kit.

Hats of to MDL staff. The splitter itself is an absolute monster of a machine, and its filled over 50 dumpy bags to date without any concerns. Its power makes it very pleasing to operate, as it just sails through any log I’ve put in it

Brilliant machine, but arrived on a wagon too large for my access road. MDL were told when I placed the order but transport company weren’t informed.

Model 37t Megga Split with diesel engine. Having diesel on the farm it made sense. A bit smoky when it first starts up, but other than that its great. Literally blows away our old splitter, and splits whatever you want. We had a huge mature oak that blew over about 3ft in width, and it tackled it without any issues.

Pleased with the machine and all the power it seems to have. The amount of logs I can get through in a session is crazy when I get going. I went from a smaller splitter on my tractor, and this is quite an upgrade.

Great machine with no troubles on the power front. Saw the videos on youtube and thought it looked the business. Bigger when you see it in real life which is no bad thing. Can’t fault it.

I really don’t think you can beat this splitter on power. It can really handle some heavy duty logs, and then some… Never seems to struggle with anything which makes the ‘chore’ of splitting logs quite a pleasure actually.
