I got mine after 7 months and I’m telling you it was worth the wait, all fun and straight boards!
George Horodeski –
I’ve had my Little Blue for three years now, and absolutely love it. The more I used it, the more I appreciated the design of the components. This little saw works great, and easily handles anyting you put on it, even when you need to do some creative chainsaw work to get a slightly oversize log to fit through the mill. All around great saw. It trailered easily from St-Denis-de- Brompton to our home in Saskatchewan, a distance of over 3200 km.
I will also give full marks to the people at Vallee. They were great when we picked it up and were there when we needed a few extras. Keep up the good work!

Romeo Dubreuil –
so I`ve had the mill for 9 months and I love it cant say enough good things about it. I did get the brigs and stratton 24 hp motor… glad i did. I have sawn up about 10 thousand BF for a 3 stall garage and will be doing another 5 thousand for all the sheathing stock out of pine. most of the wood was hemlock i had cut up and it cut it like butter. love the power up and down feed for the saw head cant imagine cranking that every time. it has allready paid for itself and i look foward to doing small timber frame sheds and cabins for sale next year when i retire
Thank you vallee

Look like a good mill!, three weeks behind so far on delivery for mine so I will let you know!🤷♂️ but so far it’s cost me 3/4 of the month I had excitedly set aside to get to know it, and not looking good for next week! So in short, their logistics could use some work!
