Maybe the Huskee brand sold by TS is different than the Speeco. (I ""assumed"" it was the one sold by TS.)
This model : 28 ton, It has a 16 gpm pump - 4-1/2" cylinder & a
12 second cycle time.

I know when splitting the cradle beam is real nice to center the round & really handy when horizontal splitting so the round don't roll off.
A 28 ton with all the pressure on the cylinder mount on Bearcat & Yard machine is a couple factors I'd consider a "con".
Didn't someone here have the weld fail & oil go everywhere on a troybilt?
I looked at heavy duty built, wedge design & liked the cradle beam.
Engine, pump, valve, hoses & ram "O" rings may need replaced/rebuilt over time, but that's all maintenance in my thinking.
I&O was on my short list, but couldn't get one here with out extra $$ shipping.
For my choices here when I bought, I went 22 ton Speeco.
Now HD & Lowes are about the only source for splitters, Ariens, Swisher, troybilt are the choices now.
I'm always kicking the tires when I see splitters, so far for my choices, I'm pleased with mine when comparing.
