What a killer deal on a great tool! April 1, 2008 In over her head (The Heartland of America!) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought mine last week and have been using it for about 4-5 hours a day since. My arms are killing me, but if I had to do this with a shovel and rake they'd hurt even more! I have a 'new' house and wanted to create a garden area. That happened so fast that I decided use the tiller attachment to 'blend in' my soil ammendments. Then I decided to tear out the existing lawn area in preparation for seeding. I thought I'd need to rent a large unit, but this one is doing a great job. I might add, I'm on 2/3 of an acre! Mind you it's spring and the ground is still damp and soft, but I'd highly recommend this unit for anyone out there looking for a tiller attachment.
Reconditioned tiller June 1, 2008 P. May (Texas) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased this tiller about a month ago, and I finally used it. It was in like new condition and it works extremely well. It is much easier working peat moss in the flower beds than a shovel.
great June 4, 2008 GoPens! (Virginia) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was debating purchasing this product for the past year. All the reviews I read were very positive. Last year we laid down newspaper and mulched the entire garden. Not easy work. Still had weeds to pick, not as many as without the precautions we took but there were still weeds. This tiller does exactly the job I need. It fits right between the rows of plants in our garden. I've used it twice so far to weed the entire garden. Only takes me 15 minutes now, once a week. Amazing. I actually think this might have too much power for just weeding, but that is ok by me. I would feel comfortable using this to extend our flower beds if needed. I would say that our garden is established so the dirt has been worked before. The attachment is quite heavy, but I think that helps it do the job correctly.
I would highly recommend purchasing this to save time in a veggie garden of good size.

An excellent value. This little tiller works. I have a big tiller but wanted a smaller unit for tight areas. It works so well the big tiller may be on its way out. I couldn't be happier.
Tiller attachment really works June 21, 2008 Mike (Iowa United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The unit arrived in great shape, even though the box looked a bit wimpy for the task, but I attached the unit, fired up the engine on my Ryobi 4 cycle trimmer and it took right off. My wife uses it for the most part and she says she likes it. The weight is a bit intimidating at first, but actually works in your favor when you're using it. You may need to learn to let it do the work. Don't try to drag it around, just guide it. It was powerful enough to even shave away at hard ground, but works perfectly on softer moist (not wet) soil. So, if your garden is hard as a rock, water it some and then let it dry so it won't clod up, but the unit pulverizes nicely. We haven't had to sharpen or replace blades, but it seems pretty straight forward. The unit appears to have an auto clutch that prevents it from turning while under no load, which is nice. As soon as you engage it with the ground, even at an idle, it does want to start turning. Good unit.
