Thats a good price, but I'd want to know what the hp is. I have a 1/2hp LEM and it works great for 3-5 deer a yr and i double grind and mix with pork. Problem is that its noisy. I think my neighbors wood chipper is quieter. One thing to consider is parts/accessories and warranty. Well, i guess thats a couple things. Lem, cabelas, etc will have parts/accessories easily available.
