I’m very happy with my HM 126. It was a learning curve, but if you read the manual at start slowly it doesn’t take to much time and your sawing like a pro. I saw lumber every day.

This was a great first sawmill. It allowed me to learn and be productive at a great price point. It was extremely durable. As a beginner, I put it through the ringer and it handled it like a champ. Great product!

The Woodland Mills HM 126 works very well once assembled. However assembly is a bear. Particularly trying to place the three door catches on the mill. The catches are located in very hard to reach places and the room for fingers, wrenches etc. is almost non-existent. Coupled with the tiny sizes of the nuts and screws putting the hatch fasteners on was a nightmare even with help. I've had the HM 126 since about Nov. 2019 and I like the way the mill cuts. However I am suddenly noticing that the clutch seems to be slipping. I can get about two feet into a log and the blade stops inexplicably. I stop pull back and start again and it does it again. I've since had a knee replacement and have not been able to work with the saw since January 23, 2020.

Love the one pull start Koehler engine but learning about the importance of everything must be level and stay level over multiple logs for quality boards.

It's too good... i have been milling for friends and coworkers every weekend and a couple days a week. I didn't consider the ramifications of telling people that I bought a portable sawmill. Thanks for the phone support correcting the blade tracking. I was surprised someone called so fast after the order and appreciated the service. The 126 trailer package is well made, dependable, and exactly what I needed. No regrets, except telling people that I bought it

I've been extremely happy with the performance of my hm126, it handles hard wood and knots just as well as soft woods. It's very fuel efficient and starts first pull every time even in the cold. The only thing I do not like is sometimes after replacing a blade, the tracking can be a pain to get right. Other than that my only regret is not having more logs to cut.

The HM 126 XL Woodlander is great! The mill is very well built. With the trailer makes it very strong, easy to move and level. I would recommend this model to anyone. I have plans to use it a lot this summer, all my friends have plans also. I would recommend to anyone thinking of buying one, get the trailer with it. Without the trailer with the leveling jacks, it is very hard to set up and get level.

It exceeded all expectations! Easy assembly and cut greats. The only negative is that the assembly instructions could be updated and detailed better. My only regret is that I would’ve got the HM130. Ive cut about 2000 bdft so far a mix of pine, poplar, cherry, maple, white oak and walnut. Cuts everything I’ve sat on the bed so far with ease.

I have been working my new Woodland Mills HM126 for a couple of months now, and I am quite pleased with its performance. I am a complete newbie to milling lumber from logs and am learning at a hundred miles an hour. I purchased this mill with the 9.5 hp motor on it with one set of the extensions. I am very happy that I spent the extra money for the bed extensions and regret that I never spent the extra money for the 14 hp motor. If I was to do it again, I would certainly spend the difference for the larger motor. Please don’t get me wrong, the 9.5 works very well and starts on the first pull every time. It however limits the speed at which you can produce product. My review on the HM 126 is all positive and I love it. I really wished that I had purchased this mill years ago. I am quite certain that by the time this mill is a year old, I will have more that paid for itself in lumber.

Love it! Having so much fun sawing logs into useful lumber to build a fence and deck.
