I have been a Mackissic distributor for 25 years and can tell you this story has huge holes in it. The WHITE B&S engine hasn't been available for at least 10-12 years. The $1500 price tag mentioned in the article also supports a sale date of 1995-2000 as it now sells for $1900 or more. This chipper hasn't been available with a 7-hp engine since even before 1995. This is an old machine, not new. Whenfuel sits in an engine for months (or years) it turns gummy and creates catrburetor problems as described. Mackissic products have the highest satisfaction rating of any of the 450 engine-powered products we sell and you will find nothing but great reviews no matter who you ask. The folks at Mackissic are our the best of any of our 40 vendors . . .
In our 25 years, we have sold THOUSANDS of Mackissic products and I don't ever recall a single complaint. There is a loose cannon on every ship.
If this guy contacts me and tells the truth, in writing, I will give him a new engine, no questions asked.
You can't go wrong buying a Mackissic product. American-made, old-school, time-tested quality machines. I stake my reputation on it.

You're right. The photo does speak volumes. It's best to study the RR's before posting. The photo clearly shows cobwebs - suggesting it hasn't been used. The photo clearly shows almost unworn hammers - suggesting it hasn't been used. The photo clearly shows original green paint on the hammer chamber - suggesting it hasn't been used. The rest of the photos also suggest this machine is mint, so mint that it hasn't been used. The RR also quotes the owner saying it wasn't used, and the owner happens to be telling the truth. The machine hasn't been used because the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder machine didn't work and hasn't from day one. Thank you.

Here is what my rebuttal ACTUALLY "started with." ""Why? Why do you waste bandwidth posting multiple links to your ROR in rebutals to your ROR? If a person is reading this ROR, links to this same ROR serve no purpose whatsoever."" This is true. If someone is in the process of reading your ripoff report, your rebuttal with multiple links to the SAME REPORT serve no purpose other than to waste bandwidth. Further, if you can't be honest about what is posted above your rebuttal, why should anyone believe your complaint? You're a tool. Next time you're in Ohio, stop by and say hello to Rita.

""That is like saying you shouldn't use a chipper shredder because you can do the job manually (as I unfortunately have had to do)."" I suggested you SUE THEM IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT. If this is a warranty issue that they won't make good on - SUE THEM. That's what the courts are for. After you prevail, you can purchase a different engine for the d**n thing and have some money left over. In other words, you come out ahead of the game. Do you even bother to read the rebuttals or are you too busy posting the same links to the same report to even notice? You're earning your way into being just like another tool, Rita.

Why do you waste bandwidth posting multiple links to your ROR in rebutals to your ROR? If a person is reading this ROR, links to this same ROR serve no purpose whatsoever. You're acting like an idiot by posting all these links to this ROR. If your engine was truly defective (without any tinkering by you) then perhaps you should file a claim in your local small claims court. After you prevail, you could then use your award to purchase a different engine to mount on the chipper.

Since fail to clearly post relevant numbers and failure information asked for, one can only surmise that the truth would work against you and your very old machine. Failures happen, that is why there is a warranty period. However, you shot yourself in the foot with this ridiculous statement: "Also note, as a homeowner you can't let this machine sit running unused through tanks of gas in your front yard to diagnose it, as it's totally deafening and you'd be thrown out the subdivision." So, somehow the machine is quieter when you are using it to do work but not to let sit and run? I know they are not which is what makes that statement laughable. You really have no case and I suspect this is more of an operator error causing the problem and not the machine. I am sure MacKissic and Briggs and Stratton have already called the shop you took it to and got the true story on the case and that is why they are ignoring your nonsense mailings/posts/whatever you are doing to slander companies that has no obligation to you outside the stated terms of the warranty. Dropping the ignorant routine probably would have gotten you a more satisfying resolution if one was even needed.

So, somehow the machine is quieter when you are using it to do work but not to let sit and run? I know they are not which is what makes that statement laughable. You really have no case and I suspect this is more of an operator error causing the problem and not the machine. I am sure MacKissic and Briggs and Stratton have already called the shop you took it to and got the true story on the case and that is why they are ignoring your nonsense mailings/posts/whatever you are doing to slander companies that has no obligation to you outside the stated terms of the warranty. Dropping the ignorant routine probably would have gotten you a more satisfying resolution if one was even needed.

I am sorry you are unable to read the information properly that I sent to Ripoff report. It is far too hard to try to understand the report updates when thay have " strange stuff in it that I didn't post. Quotes were on the screen when I pressed the send button. For some reason Ripoff Report suggests that I sent ", but I explained that I spent considerable time to ensure 1/ they weren't and 2/ that the quotes were in Ripoff Report editor format, so that they couldn't be converted into even stranger characters than the " that appeared.

.. and I am not knocking Briggs and Stratton engines either. I have other older ones and they start up fine and run, even after long periods of not being used. I do knock the Briggs and Stratton PA / Pennsylvania sales rep that did nothing to resolve the situation, and that's where I begin to question the company, and that's what I evaluate for future purchases. Briggs and Stratton did the opposite of what I expected Briggs and Stratton to do in this situation, so that leaves me to question what they would do in any other situation in the future. Consequently, I purchase other engines because of Briggs service and the nightmare I've had with this machine. I've had a very rough time with this Briggs and Stratton engine, and I expected Briggs and Stratton to go above and beyond. What did the Briggs and Stratton PA / Pennsylvania sales rep do. Absolutely nothing. It's the company that counts. Briggs and Stratton and Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company both fail my evaluation. Products are generally good, but the company staff don't do the right, ethical thing. Thank you.

....someone should arrange a tete-a-tete between this guy and our infamous "Rita". They have so much in common. Endless meaningless, confusing, incomplete dialogue, and an inability to respond to others on this site, some actually trying to help. . By the way, Mr. Organic: That 'Briggs" engine is strictly stone-age technology. Virtually all small internal combustion engines are, and have been for some time, either over head valve or overhead cam. That side-valve Briggs was always a hard-starting turd and will be forever. I have a similar Briggs on my old power washer and it WILL NOT start initially without starting fluid. They go from "not enough fuel to start"-to-"flooded and won't start" in three pulls without even firing. Get an engine built in this century.

You add to the story (new or old machine) and withhold important facts when someone asks you for information and yet, you saturate this thread with your useless diatribe. You obviously need help, but not only with your shredder.

You must feel good helping your Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder customer start the machine that had sat for a while. I actually challenged Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company a year and a half ago to resolve my machine's problem, as I had a use for a machine like this at that time. I put a lot of faith in Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company in the hope the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder could be used to do some processing, but the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company wasn't up to it. In fact, when I contacted them, they did something much less than any help you provided your customer. Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company totally ignored me. That was their choice, and it was the first indication of how Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company helps a customer that's in a situation like this, where the machine has never run properly from day one. They had the choice to understand the situation, to understand this was their Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder customer, an enthusiast, a home gardener, and they had the choice to go above and beyond, to make this situation right. Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company chose the easy route. Ignore this Mackissic Mighty Mac problem. Thank you.

as they are stamped in the housing. And you still haven't said what the alleged problem actually is. Just vague inuendo. There are plenty of homeowners who have had these units and not encountered any issues after they have sat. I just fired one up last year for a customer and it has been sitting at least 5 years.

The nature of the problem, taking a few tanks of gas to create, and the inability of the experts working on it several times to repair it, coupled with the machine being used very infrequently for homeowner use takes the issue outside of warranty anyway for any homeowner. It was a huge frustration. Also note, as a homeowner you can't let this machine sit running unused through tanks of gas in your front yard to diagnose it, as it's totally deafening and you'd be thrown out the subdivision. Shouldn't you be able to rely on a repair? The machine is old, and I didn't and don't hide it. The model number: Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder Model 12-PT. It's not Model SC-703 or Model SC-705, Model 9-P, Model 12-P, Model TPH-12, Model SC800, Model SC1650 , Model SC183, Model SC262 , Model TPH122, Model TPH184, Model LSC800, Model LSC1100. The problem the machine has is the same problem it had when brand new before and after all the services, and there is overwhelming evidence to support this, and it will provide the very same symptoms, presented to them many times, if started and run again. It's a matter of how Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company, who they themselves describe as struggling sheet metal manufacturers, treat their enthusiast and customer that utilized their dealer and distributor for the machine, repairs and accessories. Thank you.

Lack of good reviews and sales information for Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder when I was purchasing: I'd see chipper shredder reviews and chipper shredder comparisons and details and various sales information in various organic gardening magazines and organic gardening books. I think it could have been my subscription to Organic Gardening magazine or Rodale information that allowed me to discover the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder, although it could have been another source such as Mother Earth News, Fine Gardening, Horticulture, Garden Design, Country Gardens or one of many organic seed catalogs. I never really found a good real life source of information for the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder, as it's a larger piece of equipment than most friends or home gardeners use, and subsequently most magazine chipper shredder reviews and magazine chipper shredder comparisons tended to be more of a, "We have the machine for the day, it's green and solid looking. It starts and is loud. It chipped and shredded a few items for us.". They're not real in-depth reviews from people that use them regularly describing problems they have with them. They don't even provide you with the full details behind what they tell, such as the reality of loud is: "It's loud, in fact deafeningly loud. Even with their provided hearing protection, it's far too loud to work beside for very long". I find that Ripoff Report is a good place to search for reviews. It shows some real things/problems that happen to company products. It shows if a company has worked in a manner to help and solve a problem for a customer, or the opposite. These are the real reviews I would want to know about, such as my real life experience with a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder and it's Mackissic HQ.

Mackissic customer service - We Want Your Money: When someone purchases around $1,500 worth of Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder and receives nothing but metal that never worked properly, and the Mackissic company hasn't solved the problem, Mackissic really isn't trying to help the customer. Couple that with the fact that the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer did major work on the engine, which could very well be what generated the problem, and at the very least turned the machine from a pristine new machine into a (not factory) reconditioned one. That same Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer that totally scammed and ripped off the customer for this unneeded work. There was no speck of dirt in the carb as they said! The Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer so desperately diagnosed the problem as something outside of warranty, so that he the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer could SELL a service to take more money from the customer. You read in the 1st posting that I used our life savings to buy this expensive machine. You read about your Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer scamming the customer out of nearly another $100, that we simply didn't have alloted for this, but we were put in a corner and forced to find the money. In this case where their Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder customer has never had a properly working machine, and Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company can clearly see it is the case, the best of their several ludicrously low offers offered last year was: "a new replacement engine at a reduced cost". They want me to BUY - spend more money!!!! The entire Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company and dealer system seem to want to scam the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder customer out of money. It seems to be the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company priority. They want me to PAY for another Briggs and Stratton engine. Should I PAY more for the privilege of owning a machine that never worked? If I was going to invest money, why would I invest more of it in a company(ies) who's product didn't work or a company that doesn't help with a problem doesn't do the right thing. A company that asks for more money to resolve a situation. Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company seems to have the philosophy: Our machine has a problem, We'll take this problem as an opportunity to sell something/gouge you. Why would I want to pay any more money towards a Briggs and Stratton engine? Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company, think about what you're suggesting for just a minute. The engine didn't work, 2 services have failed and the customer has been ripped off too. Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company thinks it's a good suggestion for the customer to pay more money for another chance at this? Think long and hard about this Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company. Why would you want your customer to go through these terrible problems with your machine, and then why would you want your customer to PAY money to repeat it? If you think even harder Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company, and think about it from the customer point of view, think about why I would want to pay any more money to Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company when they treat me like this / suggest things like this. Mackissic views this as fair, the best it can do. I'll show you how it's not fair. Mackissic, show me your written pricing schedule that tells you exactly what to charge a customer that purchased a brand new Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder that didn't work, that was ripped off by the Mackissic dealer for more money and that had more bad service provided by the company Mackissic forwarded the problem to. Show me that pricing schedule, show me how whatever price you come up with is fair, and while you're at it, show me the ways that show you deeply care about your Mackissic customer. You seem to have be viewing this problem as trouble to Mackissic, or just to yourselves (HQ) at Mackissic. I see this problem completely the opposite to the way Mackissic sees it. If I hadn't purchased a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder, I wouldn't have had the problem. I see it that the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company, and everything about it, have put me through a lot of trouble, and it's in Mackissic's interest to work to resolve the issue well. Am I the only customer focused one in this report? I'd want a happy customer. I'd want a repeat sale. I'd certainly want to keep an enthusiast happy (and you saw signs of an enthusiast a year ago and you even see one here on this Ripoff Report). If I was correcting the problem the way Mackissic thinks is right, I wouldn't be here on Ripoff Report or contacting Mackissic. I'd instead be off to the bank to get lots of my own money to pay for repairs myself. I see this problem totally opposite to Mackissic. I see that owning this Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder has been a nightmare in many ways, and I think Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company should be going out of their way, well above and beyond to make this problem right for the customer. They should be viewing this as "our product really caused our customer some serious problems, and we want to make this right". The big problem for a homeowner with this type of machine (Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder etc) is that you only use it a short amount of time, and only 1 or 2 times a year, so the lack of quality in the Briggs and Stratton engine may not kick in until after the warranty runs out.

What does this report mean to me? What does it mean to me regarding the purchase of future engines. This report indicates a NEW engine was produced and shipped to a customer "in a defective state. A state that needs a major engine overhaul (after already having 2 overhauls in my case) to complete the manufacturing process to make it work", and the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company's Briggs and Stratton upper level PA region representative wants the customer to retain an engine of this quality. An engine that never worked properly. Why would I want to buy these Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredders with a new engine, when, based upon my experience, it could very well end up needing to be re-manufactured just to get it to run properly. Note the cylinder head maintenance is not supposed to be every 2 hours, and should be more like hundreds, or not at all. This machine had a carpet of coking after only a few hours running. A small 2 cycle motorcycle can go 15,000 miles before requiring an overhaul to decoke. This is an engine so bad it needs to have its cylinder head removed after every 2 hours to remove heavy combustion deposits (coking). The service procedures instruct the owner to complete this task themselves between 100 to 300 hours. If I'm shopping for an engine for a chipper shredder, I'd certainly not buy one with Mackissic's brand of enthusiasm, caring and good Samaritan style attached to it. What does this report mean to me regarding the purchase of future Machinery? What does this report mean to me regarding the purchase of gardening equipment. It suggests to me that I should purchase items completely manufactured by a single maker, such as a Honda engine on a Honda machine to eliminate the issue of a company disassociating itself form its product's engine, and ensuring I'm purchasing from a company that'll still be around in a few years. I have purchased many machines since and I have never purchased another Mackissic or Briggs and Stratton because of this.

Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company. With regards to Mackissic The report is not about the part of the machine that their company manufacturers. This part appears to look fairly solid and appears to work. Obviously I'm in no position to provide a long term user review about the machine good or bad, as I haven't used the chipper/shredder part of the machine long term, but I do have some real experience with it, probably vastly more than a journalist's review. Although it may look good in the photo, the paintwork when new was/is very rough/poor, and a chipper feed attachment welded attach point fell off (poor design / not very strong). This problem is not about the Mackissic manufactured part of the machine, it's about the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder machine as a whole that Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company deals in and promotes. The problem is with the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company HQ Office that supports it. When you read this keep in mind that this Ripoff Report states that the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder portion of the machine without engine is, in general, good. If Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company has driven a customer to post a Ripoff Report and he didn't say negative things about that part of the machine, I think it's clear you're reading comments from a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder enthusiast, and when one of these gets treated badly by Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company it shows the mentality of the company. The, "If we can get out of it, we'll take that route" mentality, that really taints the whole company and its product in my opinion. I thought I was buying something special, something made in the USA. I thought Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company was a US company that cared. I had the impression that I'd purchased a product from a big company, but I was told by Mackissic that the reality is far from that. They said the reality is that they're a small sheet metal manufacturer struggling against foreign imports.

What is a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company dealer then? I was presented with the impression that a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company dealer was a place I could trust. A place closely associated to Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company. Even on the Mackissic website today (and it's been there for a while) we have this: "Opportunities available for Dealers, Distributors, and Rental... Call Us for Details!!", implying that dealers are special and are only appointed if they meet Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company requirements. Can I trust my Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company dealer, and does Mackissic? Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company disassociated from the dealer when I brought a problem regarding the dealer to Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company. Both times I brought up this issue with the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company they did nothing to correct the dealer's time waste and theft. Isn't it strange that the symptoms led the trained/skilled Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer to a dirt in the carburetor issue (non warranty issue = money from customer), but the same symptoms led the home gardener / mechanic, after studying some small engine maintenance books, directly to the problem. First time, heavy coking under the cylinder head. Isn't it interesting that the trained/skilled Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder dealer went straight for the money?

Disassociation and Association. When I contacted Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company about the problem with their machine, Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company preferred to "Disassociate" themselves from their 1/ Dealer and 2/ their machine's engine. When they had a customer buying and they were selling, they had a close "Association" with their Dealer and their machine's engine. When I brought the issue of the dealer totally ripping me off to Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company, they did nothing to resolve that total waste of my time and nothing to make up for the funds that were stolen from me by the Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company dealer. When I brought this issue to Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company again a year ago, Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company again did nothing to resolve that problem. Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company seems to be trying to disassociate itself from the engine after the sale, whereas before the sale it's what's sitting on the promo machine, and it's what's on the machine in the brochure. It's all one item before the sale. If Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company wants to disassociate from Briggs and Stratton or indicate that you have no pull at Briggs and Stratton, then why would I or anyone else want to buy a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder with an engine you want to disassociate from after the sale and from a company that you have no pull or say at. Why would I look for / buy a Mackissic / Briggs and Stratton products and receive the lack of 'pride' in them like I've received, when I can buy something like an 'all in one' Honda that is assured to run to boot, and Honda won't run away if an engine or another component fails. They won't disassociate themselves, as it's all a Honda. Does Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company have no pride? I phoned you, clearly indicating myself as a Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder enthusiast. In that call, I discovered that I had much more enthusiasm for and pride in the product than the company's own HQ staff.

The photos are now displayed. They are large and don't need to expand any larger (as I'd said in the 1st posting). They show with clarity that the machine hasn't been used. If the machine had been used any differently than I've described, I would not be writing here on Ripoff Report. I would not feel right doing it. I purchased a new machine and both companies let me down, and have let me down several times and they have not solved the problem (or the Ripoff Report). Other than the completely valid reasons why we're here on Ripoff report, there is also the "gardening friend", "enthusiast" angle to this issue. I'm a gardener and when a friend has a problem, I'm there to help. In fact I just stopped to help some dangerous looking hoods that had left the road and crashed in a car these weren't friends and I wouldn't want them as friends and I debated helping them, but they had left the road so I did the right thing and stopped to help. It's interesting to me that often a customer isn't classified as a friend, or someone they should help. In my case, the gardener enthusiast isn't a friend. Does this Mackissic Mighty Mac chipper shredder company even understand home gardeners?

Ed and Co at RipoffReport.com are very busy at the moment working on system upgrades etc including the photo system. Consequenty they've told me that they aren't posting photos at present. I don't know what type of format or the location they will appear in the ripoff report yet, but I expect it to be an improvement. This means the photos are on hold (possibly the report) for a few weeks.
