I have the 27T in order. I looked at the 22T and you'll be happy. Did you check your hydraulic fluid level after cycling it a couple times when it was uncrated?
 
Measure the circumference of the pile at the base. The pile below had a circumference of ~90' at the base. It was 7' tall in the middle and measured 27'x30'. I'm roughly halfway through it and have a hair over 7 cords split/stacked so far. I'm thinking I will have ~14 cords when said and done.

JRHAWK - Holy cow that is a lot of wood

Laxin - Yes, I did. I have run several cords through it at this point.

I am still in the process of stacking the pile. I have some of the bigger stuff to buck into a few pieces and split.
 
Well I finally got it all stacked up. It only amounted to 3 cords. In addition, about 25% of the round pile was punky rotten wood, so that I obviously didn't stack. I spoke to the supplier and advised of the amount of punk and lack of expected cordage (it was advertised as 5-6 cord), he said he would send another load out, no questions asked.

There is a total of 4 cords stacked here. About 1 cord I had from a previous free scrounge.
