STIHL GHE 355 chipper - shreds by a thousand of cuts 

Very useful thank you. I have got slightly smaller branches and amount to mulch so it should work. Thanks again.

Great review, living in the UK I bought the Viking GE 355 exactly the same as STIHL GHE 355 but half the price it comes with STIHL blades the two things to keep in mind with this chipper perseverance and blockages. I know it’s a safety feature but it could do with a quicker release system to open to clear blockages.

extremely useful review

Great video and thanks for this honest review. I was thinking of buying the smaller brother ghe 260 but it seems they are not much better than a 200-300 chipper and cost more than twice as much + sharping the blades.

I have a 6hp Forest Master petrol shredder. Its quieter than the Stihl in my opinion and provides more power at roughly the same price. It will mulch leafy branches up to 50mm diameter.

Thank you for the video. I'm going to buy the three phase 375 model in January. Just need a three phase socket now but I can do that easily.

Fantastic review...very helpful....many thanks! Not sure if I want to buy a machine that needs all its blades sharpening for every 4 hours of work :(

I have this garden shredder too

Szeretem a stihl termékeket de ez a termék nem győzött meg arról , hogy megéri az árát ennyiért benzinmotoros Hecht 6208 as gépet lehet venni.

I just got mine earlier this week, not the same model I think it’s the previous model, been using it and got soaked with grass & weed juice.😂 I have to say I’m disappointed, a lot of mucking around to get it all the way through & finding the correct spot. I was close to buying the Hansa but it’s like $5k and I don’t have that much waste to do constantly, it’s more the initial cleanup then ongoing maintenance. It’ll do but if I could do it again I’d buy something else.

does it not self feed? I would rather be getting the next bundle ready to put into the machine than pushing the current bundle in.

1.what are the signs that blades need sharpening? 2. do the vertical blades need more sharpening than the horizontal chipping blades? 3. hansa 3e is now 2000W-please comment. 4. after 1 year use what is your opinion

nice video. just wondering how did you sharpen the blades and was it difficult?

Would you have preferred to buy the most powerful electric one GHE 420?

On croit faire confiance à une marque connue, mais en fait le produit est très mal étudié. Dans le sens végétaux, le broyeur se bloque tout de suite dès que l'on met des végétaux. d'où obligation d'ouvrir l'ensemble pour tout enlever!! En ce qui concerne les branchages, ce n'est guère mieux, car déjà le diamètre de broyage est plus qu'optimiste, et il faut arriver a positionné la branche a l'endroit du couteau, sans quoi ça ne sert à rien, on ne fait que frotter sur le disque le ralentir et l'engin cale pour un rien!!de plus il peut y avoir des rebonds très dangereux, il ne faut jamais enfourner les branches en se mettant devant la bouche, car parfois celle-ci rebondit très violemment, seuls les couteaux horizontaux fonctionnent et il faut démonter tout l'ensemble pour les affûter et en plus ils ne sont pas retournables , les autres vu leur forme c'est très dur de les affûter avec une affûteuse genre Tormek une seule solution, même retraité il faut prendre son temps ce broyeur n'est pas à hauteur de ses prétentions et encore moins de son prix plus de 800€, quitte a voir un broyeur électrique ce n'est pas la peine de payer la marque Stihl Vicking, ce produit est loin de remplir ses fonctions.

I don't see a very big difference with the ghe 150 witch is very cheaper

We think we trust a well-known brand, but in fact the product is very poorly researched. In the plant direction, the crusher immediately blocks as soon as plants are added. hence the obligation to open the whole thing to remove everything!! As far as the branches are concerned, it's not much better, because already the grinding diameter is more than optimistic, and you have to be able to position the branch at the place of the knife, otherwise it's useless, we just rubs on the disc, slows it down and the machine stalls for nothing! Moreover, there can be very dangerous rebounds, you should never put the branches in the oven by putting yourself in front of your mouth, because sometimes it bounces very violently, only the horizontal knives work and you have to dismantle the whole thing to sharpen them and in addition they cannot be returned, the others given their shape it is very hard to sharpen them with a sharpener like Tormek only one solution, even retired you have to take your time this shredder does not live up to its claims and even less its price more than 800€, even if it means seeing an electric shredder it is not worth paying for the Stihl Vicking brand, this product is far from fulfilling its functions.

Looks extremely slow going...most small shredder/chippers are...even the small petrol ones.

Questo biotrituratore è un ravatto

Any idea why it would sometimes stop?
