Decided I chose the ALF2800 after some back-and-forth with the Bosch AXT25TC because of the price and the reviews (even those of the nearly identical sister unit LHF2800). As described above, the structure is simple. The quality has to deal with the time course only prove the first impression is measured by the price but already very good.
I too have the shell is not tightly screwed to the frame, and can save space so keep him (essay in the container). Because of the weight and the vibration operation is not a problem.
The operating noise I find very unobtrusive. One can well incidentally entertain - no comparison to the "normal" knife shredders. My neighbor has not realized that I had the machine all morning running.
Slightly disappointing I find the harvesting results. He has already pulled the piece, while he has crushed the branches of the Christmas tree perfectly 1cm thick fruit tree shoots - The 0.5. Overall, I would have wished for an even finer and tend harvesting results. Perhaps the adjustment was not perfect (because of course I tried different settings). I think that the distance of the knife to the roll could be smaller in order to achieve a finer result.
Otherwise, he moved reliably everything. What matched up through the opening, he has also worked without grumbling or constipation. As described, the chopped material accumulates under the ejection and "pressed back in the roll", long before the large container is full. A slight tilting of the device or the distribution with a branch through the slits, has quickly taken care of Remedy and am very much disturbed.
Rather annoying I find the on / off switch combination. Wearing gloves, the operation is limited, and if I have time off in an emergency quickly, which could become a problem. The apparatus being constructed admittedly very safe and a contact with the roller under normal use is hard to imagine.
Was also mentioned of unfavorably designed safety contact on the container, which can quickly become clogged with shredded material.
Conclusion: A recommendable device with a good price-performance ratio. He makes a good quality impression is powerful and quiet. Small objection I have. In the construction of the switch and the safety contact on the container Because of the non-uniform Häckselergebnisses, and that's the main task, I prefer from a star.
