A lot of machine for the money. It was as good or better than was represented. I ground some stumps here around the house to test it out, and it works excellent. I‟m extremely satisfied, and just called to report, and order some spare cutter teeth. Jonathan… Full Tree Service-Mercy, we have ground tons and tons of stumps with our old, early model stump grinder. It has outlasted three tractors. We had to up-size the driveline due to progressively bigger tractors, and now on our German Fendt 110 H.P.!! It will really move some wood. We actually sold the stump grinder, but the new owner has been kind enough to just let us keep using it. As soon as he comes and takes it, we will be getting a PRO100 or PRO150 stump grinder for the Fendt. Jim… Stump Grinding Operator - For two years we tried to find out how to get a hold of you guys, after another local tree service obtained one of the M50E‟s and we witnessed how fast it worked. He would not divulge where to get one, and threw up a road block to our finding out easily. I bought a cheaper brand in an attempt to suffice, and found it inadequate for commercial applications. The teeth were astronomical in price, and dull after about four stumps. The M50E is many, many times faster and slicker. I can’t even put a number on it, but overall it is TEN TIMES the machinery. We‟re so glad we finally found you all. Ben… Old Farmstead Restoration - Heavens, we have been through thousands of stumps. Our conditions are brutally rocky, and tooth maintenance is critical. Still, it is our most profitable machine, and just keeps on ticking. We are doing lot and land clearing, stump grinding, and restoring the old New England pastures, hay ground, woodlands, and farmsteads. Steve… Tree Service - Great stump grinder machine. Indestructible. Don’t hesitate to buy. I bought mine sight unseen, and was thrilled with that gamble outcome. PRO75/PRO75T Les… Stump Grinding Service - I used to work for a company making PTO Grinders. Yours is much better. It‟s powerful, fast smooth, I really like it. It contains the chips well. Strong, good PTO Drive Shaft, Heavy Duty overall. No trouble with it. BEST CUTTER I HAVE EVER RUN. Also it‟s stable and smooth for the tractor, and doesn‟t move around. Others I‟ve run are rough, and shake, and move around. The backfill blade is really handy to move the chips around. The telescopic extension on the stump grinder is really nice. And another thing I like is how close you can get to obstructions, etc. I can grind right up to the edge of buildings, foundations and such. Elannia… Stump Grinding Service - I love my grinder. We were originally looking for an ash pan, but so glad we bought the Miller PRO75. It’s the best, most awesome stump grinder you could ever imagine. I‟ve learned how to really make it “howl”. Everybody that sees it in action, marvels. I like how close I can get to foundations, etc. It contains the chips really good, and leaves such little clean up. I would recommend it to anyone. Like I said, I‟ve gotten really good at operating it, and was wondering if you‟d like some video for your web site. Also, I found the company extremely honest, forthright, and supportive. Even though we bought the stump grinder used, one time when some pockets oddly cracked, the company acknowledged a metallurgical defect and immediately replaced the parts free of charge. Then, since we bought the unit used, and didn‟t have the proper manual, and missed a couple of grease points, the drive tubes got gaulled up, and wiped out the carrier bearing. Although they are a manufacturer, and not a repair shop, we took the machine to Millers shop, and they restored it for no labor charge, and provided reduced priced parts to help us get back to square one, and up and running, and making money. With a manual, and proper maintenance, only teeth, and an occasional set of clutch discs have been required since. Micco Land Clearing… Land Development - I love that stump grinder. I use it a lot. I upgraded from the 48 H.P. Kubota to a 75 H.P. Although it ground excellent, and I was satisfied before, now it goes through stumps like a hot knife through butter. I have the tractor loader and grapple bucket, it‟s the ultimate tree machine. With our sandy soil, we have a lot of blow overs, and root balls. The Miller raises high enough to carefully grind those kind of situations…much higher than any towable type grinder. I charge three times the rate for those. With the tractor bucket, we can clean up if the customer desires, and that adds 40% revenue to the job. Whenever anybody sees the rig in action, they say oh my gosh…that thing‟s a monster. I see a lot of cheapo units down here, especially on skidsteers, but yours is a far far superior, heavy duty, truly professional piece of machinery. We average $150.00 per hour grinding stumps, and it is the most profitable investment I‟ve ever made. Mike… Full Tree Service - Well, of course you know I‟ve since went with the PRO150 but, buddy, I really used that PRO75T stump grinder, and just keep it around. I really worked it hard, I suppose, for 5-6 years. Other than minor repairs, it has been an excellent machine. I‟ll tell you how much I used it, I wore completely through the intermediate plate in the housing just from chips circulation through there. I just patched it with some 3/8” plate. It‟s been a real money maker. You remember “Punkin” I brought up there to buy a PRO75T stump grinder also…he just can‟t believe it. He says, I should have done this years ago. Buddy… Stump Grinding Contractor - You know I’ll put this stump grinder up against any of the competitive machines out there. As you know, stump grinding rates are very competitive here in Texas. A tractor mounted one is so much faster than a towable or self propelled grinder…it‟s the only way to make good money, day in/day out. And of the tractor mounted ones, the Miller is by far and away the best. I‟ve run them all, and yours is way faster, smoother, and very low cost to operate. Now, you have to know how to operate it, and keep it greased for maximum life. It is a very high performance, precision piece of machinery. So many times we have gone onto a job, or storm site, and just embarrassed other folks there with their cheap (and sometimes not so cheap) lesser stump grinders.
