It does the job really well. It's best when the material is nice and dry. Wet material, even a little amount, bogs it down and clogs the wide mouth screen at the discharge port. Over 2 days, this machine never stalled on me once. Not once. And I got 4 bags of awesome mulch for free, using the bag that came with it which is probably the size of 2 bags store-bought mulch. I grab a sheaf of 6 foot tall switchgrass in one hand, so maybe 3-4 inches in diameter, and feed it slowly into the blades, holding it until there's only about a foot and a half of the length left, then let the rest get sucked into the blades. This avoids the possibility of the grass wrapping around the blades. Shorter grasses, like prairie dropseed and autumn moor grass, I sprinkle in and it gets shredded without any trouble. I had about 15 stands of switchgrass piled up. Some of it was wet in the middle after being rained on. I spread it out and let the sun dry it out quick. There were some wet leaves mixed in which bogged the motor down a bit but I don't think that's a dealbreaker by any means. Feed it slowly and steadily and reap free mulch. I stopped at one point to clear the discharge screen after it got clogged with the little bit of wet material I did attempt to send through. I also used it for a plant called amsonia hubricthii that shreds into a fibrous cottony material, but it gets stuck in the blade bin corners. I opted to burn the rest of that plant material. Also shredded dead annual and perennial flowers. It didn't come with a push tool like it says it does. It's sturdy and lightweight enough to move around easily and fits in a corner of my garage. Assembly wasn't too bad but I had to figure out which size wrench I needed to tighten the bolts (5/16th) and those nuts that have plastic in the center (10mm). The picture for attaching the wheels is misleading, the sequence of pin, washer, wheel, washer and cap is wrong. Took me 10 minutes to sort that out but I think I got it right. It should be washer, wheel, washer, pin, cap. I have 3 tools now that I use to make my wildlife friendly gardening chores a breeze: a B&D leaf vac/mulcher with backpack collection bag for oak leaves (you gotta get the backpack style), and it does shred wet material fairly easily. A Ryobi cordless battery grass shear that works on everything but woody plants (I love this one, cuts through plants like butter and the battery lasts forever), and now this shredder mulcher. Right tool for the job is key. Everything gets recycled and stays on the property. I feel efficient, capable and proud of a job well-done. I don't have to move huge piles of plant debris into heaps on the curb and wait for it to be collected. I don't have to buy heavy, expensive, unsustainable plastic bags of mulch or have mountains of it dropped in my driveway for shoveling. Ugh (been there, done that). For reference, I'm a 65 year-old female and capable of some relatively heavy chores (5'6', 145 pounds) but prefer to make these chores something I don't dread. Review: Functional for the Job -Outcome Matched Previous Photos - 2 Years Update After 2 years, my unit is still working. I use it for dry leaves, small pencil-sized twigs, and acorns dropping from the deer without problem. As long as you have the patience to feed the machine in small bundles, I don't expect any issues. I use an old broom handle to stir the leaves, which sometimes sit at the opening. I stir atop the leaves not to the depth of reaching the blade. After use, I dust off the unit and store it in a shelter. It's not industrial, but suitable for compacting 11-13 bags in half. November 2023 1. Before assembly I lubed the cutting blades and tightened the preset screws. 2. I wasn't clear on the diagram for wheel assembly, and one of the wheels fell off after assembly. I don't think I have the pin for the wheel applied correctly. Later, I inserted the pin, similar to a bobby pin for hair, and twisted the ends together, which seemed to work. 3. It was weird that the top insertion tube was the only portion indicated for bolts and backing nuts. The base only had the bolt. 4. Once assembled, the wheels have the same floor depth as the back legs, which doesn't allow the unit to roll without dragging the rear legs. I will research if I can change the wheel for something bigger while maintaining stability. The machine is not that heavy, so I chose to carry the unit to the place of use, but this is not my choice for long-term patterns of yard to storage. 5. I did not shred on the 11:1 ratio as estimated. My shred was 4-5 full leaf bags to 1 full shredded leaf bag. Although the mulch ratio was less, I reduced the number of bags at the finish, which was the ultimate desire but due to the machine size I hoped for better output. 6. I worked in a sequence of filling one leaf bag and shredding, which facilitated the incremental feed and deterred the machine from clogging. I chose this unit versus a general leaf mulcher because I also have many pencil-sized twigs that fall. I did not have an issue shredding as long as the unit was fed in small increments. 7. The unit sits low to the ground, leaving the collection bag at a diagonal instead of sitting at a full vertical. The slant position supported a 3/4 collection fill before the shred began to back up in the collection bag. I also milked the shred particles further down into the collection bag after each batch of shredding. 8. The unit blew out a good amount of shreds during the collection, so I had to intermittently clean the pile of particles from under the machine. Eye, mask, and hearing protection are necessary because the shred dust will blow back on you. This unit is not quiet. The sound kept setting off my Apple watch to reach above-normal sound levels. ## Features - SPECIFICATIONS - This All Electric Leaf Mulcher Shredder is designed w/ a durable Heavy Duty Steel Upper Feeding port & Body.

The first test I did, was to see if it would shred some of the 7”x5”x1” cardboard blocks used as packaging in the box it came in. It shredded them with no issue. **Q: Will it handle wet material or dry material only** A: Works best with dry leaves. Have not tried wet, but may clog more. Would have to feed wet leaves a little at a time. **Q: I have a garden, will this mulch tomato vines, Brussels sprouts stems and onion tops. And sage brush** A: If the material is dry. If still green, it can jam up the cutter. **Q: Where is this product made?** A: china ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This will shred ornamental grasses into mulch *by G***N on April 12, 2022* I use this to shred all the ornamental grasses I have in my landscape and I have lots of it.

I had been using my Toro blower/vacuum which did a great job chopping the leaves but even a small stick would clog it and I would have to stop too often to clear it out. This chops them just as good but much easier, faster and can chopped the smaller twigs along with the leaves. I have a favorite $40 tool that I use https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00RD1EWTY?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title to scoop up the piled up leaves.... a snow shovel! Yes, it works great to feed the leaves slowly into the hopper. I used the handle end to give the leaves a little nudge if I happened to drop too many in and it keeps you a little further back for safety. I received the Super Handy mulcher yesterday, put it together today by myself in about 40 min (64yo female, not mechanically inclined) and it was easy. Only thing the instructions did not explain was the clips that holds the wheels on has to be spread out. I had several piles of leaves ready to go and I can't believe how fast I got it done. It is kinda loud but tolerable. It is sturdy, easy to roll around and made with what seemed like quality steel. I used a brick to hold the top of the bag (that comes with it) down on top of the output shoot. Some powdered leaf debris does escape out the sides of the bag when it's getting full so I will probably empty it when it is half full going forward. Just put some chopped up leaves with some fresh cut grass and a bit of vegetable scraps to get those microbes active, in your compost pile or tumbler, wet it down a little and keep it damp, toss it with a pitchfork (or turn the tumbler) every couple days and you will gave black gold for your garden/flower beds in no time! You can do this! My method worked so well I just had to share! Get your heirloom seeds and get growing people!😊 ## Frequently Bought Together - SuperHandy Leaf Mulcher Shredder Electric Waste Management Heavy Duty 120V AC 11" Inch Cutting Blade 0.5" Inch Cutting Capacity for Leaves, Grass, & Clippings - Gardzen 2-Pack 53 Gallon Dustpan-Type Yard Waste Bags, Reusable Heavy Duty Collapsible Garden Leaf Bags, Stand-Up Yard Waste Bin for Leaves, Lawn Debris & Grass Clippings --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/238109699-superhandy-electric-leaf-mulcher-shredder-yard-waste-leaf-shredder](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/238109699-superhandy-electric-leaf-mulcher-shredder-yard-waste-leaf-shredder) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-08*
