There are a wide variety of log splitters you can buy in the market today. You can buy these in a number of styles and designs based on your needs. You could choose from different sizes as well. The come equipped with power packed features which have made log splitting very easy. It often happens that people don't know which log splitter would be perfect for their needs. It's important you make sure that you purchase a product that suits your needs and not spend extra money on a machine which would exceed your requirements. Choosing your product largely depends on the size or diameter and the type of wood that you are splitting. Another factor that comes into play is how long you have been storing the wood which has to be cut. You also need to make your decision based on the number of knots in each log.
In this article I am going to classify the kinds you can choose from so it becomes easier for you to make your pick.

1. Small Compact Electric Units and manual units - First lets start of with the small and compact units. The 6 - ton and the 8 - ton machines are great if you are looking at cutting less than a cord of wood a year. You could go through more but it could mean quite a work out. These are ideal to carry along on camping trips as they are very portable. You could also opt for the electric units such as the 4 - ton and the 7 - ton machines. These are usually used in homes and residences where home owners cut small average sized wood of 1 - 2 cords a year. These emit no fumes and require no gas which makes them quite convenient to own. They don't make too much noise either. These are ideal to use in your basement or backyard.
2. Residential Units - These are usually designed to last a long time and cost much less than the other options so that most homeowners can afford them. They are built for homeowners who cannot afford their own log splitters. They come equipped with pneumatic tires and garden tractor pin hitches. You could also opt for 12 and 16 ton splitters which are road worthy. These are available in both electric and gas motors. They can handle logs that are 20 inches long and 24 inches in diameter. They would weigh anywhere between 250 to 300 pounds. These are also used for commercial purposes as well.
3. Heavy duty commercial and residential unit - These units are also road worthy and are fully towable. They have a 26 inch log opening. They can be used to split all types of wood and can cut logs which are up to 30 inches in diameter. They come with a slanted wedge design which allows you to tip the wedge and penetrate the wood allowing you to cut larger logs. These would come with standard high speed trailer tires with a 2 inch coupler for towing.
These are the 3 most commonly used machines in the States today. I suggest your do some research online before you go ahead and buy one. There are a number of great deals you may find. Try and find the best warranty as well.
Overall remember to buy one which would suit your needs best.
