It looks very like the one used by a friend that we visited. An El
Cheapo pseudo-professional monstrosity, which made a hell of a racket
and needed unjamming every few minutes.

You should ask yourself why it is only twice the price of a Bosch
2200, which is a vastly simpler construction (hence much cheaper to
make) and a much lower specification. Also, if that Web page is
displaying correctly, it claims to be able to chip 26 cubic metres
an hour - even at a very low aggregate density, that is several
TONS an hour and the best part of a metre/second feed rate at 75 mm
diameter and 50% packing density!

Lots of us on this group can witness that the Bosch is a good machine.
That device looks like sucker bait. Do you REALLY need to chip
branches of firewood size and/or cubic metres of material a day?
