    I was hoping you were going to do this video. I think a lot of folks were like me at first. I thought these two were the same machine and people were calling them different names until I researched. Great comparison, Bob! Well done, sir.👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

    Great job Bob! I spent a lot of time doing my own comparison before this video. This simplified the comparison between the two making it an easier decision for folks. Waiting for my 28c to be delivered. Think it might be the one behind you in the gun metal. Looking forward to bringing her home!

    I've had both, my 28pro was pre-covid built very solid machine. I had 300 plus hours and no problems with it. I traded it in June of 22 for the 28c and with in few months the hydraulic pump started leaking. The cycle time was way off, much slower. I contacted w.r. and they did send out a new pump at no charge. Ok, fixed that problem. On October 23, at 150 hours the log lift cylinder starts leaking. Contacted w.r. , their response was 'sorry out of warranty' they said 'we can sell you one' but with i declined. I took it to local shop and had it resealed for $75. The technician told me that it was a cheap cylinder (china). So now, my push cylinder started leaking recently at 168 hours. For the cost of the machine i am very disappointed! A cylinder should last longer than a couple hundred hours. I guess buyers beware...

    If the 28PRO was available with auto-cycle when I bkught my first Wolfe Ridge splitter, would've bought that instead of the 28C I have now.

    • @BacktoBob1
      @BacktoBob1 4 місяці тому +1

      The 28 Pro is an awesome machine even with OUT the auto cycle. BUT, I will say auto cycle is a game changer.

    I have the 28Pro C. Good machine, my only comments for improvements - go back to the standard 2" hitch instead of the pin style. That small retaining wire cable is bound to break over time causing loss of the pin and cotter and its not as easy as just throwing a lever down like a standard hitch. Also, that newer style cartridge filter is pretty difficult to find a replacement out there. Very few options that I could find.

    I picked up a used 28Pro at the firewood frenzy 2 years ago. Have a out 400 hours on it. Little concerned about the cycle time as it is now my bottle neck. Not sure if I could have a bad pump. Thoughts on a trade difference in $. Take care.

      Hey Woodstr, we can get you a new pump to make her good as new. Shoot me an email at wolferidgemfg@gmail.com and we can get you fixed up.
      We can also do a trade in on the machine as well
