Customer Reviews for Sun Joe - TJ604E - Green

Staked out 18' x 7' rectangle (for 50 foot fencing surround) = 126 sq. ft. for a vegetable garden at the back of the yard for next year. This Sun Joe 13.5 amp is very powerful...only bogged down a bit on thick roots and on the couple of big rocks I discovered (and had to dig out with a shovel). Since we did it on lawn, a lot of the 'creeper' grass wound around the shaft, but we just unwound it every couple of minutes (unplug it first!). I tried 2 different concrete blocks to weigh it down more (wrapped in cardboard, so as not to scratch the tiller handles)....16" x 16" x 1.75" = 37 lbs....and 12" x 12" x 1.75" = 17 lbs. It helped the 'jumping around' a good bit (obviously the heavier block held it down more), but after the first shallow pass, I took the weights off, and it worked just fine as is (bouncier though when you hit roots). It unearthed a few big rocks, one of which was jammed in to where I had to use a heavy hammer and metal spike to bang it out....then bend one tine back about 3/4" (even if one were to break off, I believe there are 24...wouldn't even notice). The second pass over the area, with tines at lowest setting, pulled up more rocks and hit more roots....I had to bang 3 more tines back into position after this, but it was no big deal. This little guy chewed up everything. The hardest part is done...now just touching up, or tilling in fertilizer before planting. This thing is lightweight (17 lbs), fairly easy to handle and move around, powerful.....and I can see this lasting for many years to keep the little garden in shape. You'd be well-served to buy one of these....no gas/oil mixing....no carb cleaning....no yanking on cords....just plug it in and go.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i bought this big one to use where my dogs have dug holes. Piles of dirt packed hard over the summer and I can use it for a garden too. I also bought the smaller version for my flower beds. NO MORE WEEDS!!!

I was very hesitant to get an electric tiller as thought it wouldn't have much power. Boy was I wrong! I have a gas tiller and this electric tiller seems more powerful to me. It certainly did a great job on the tilling I did. Ran into lots of roots and some rocks and this machine just kept on tilling. Good price and very good product.

Don't know why I waited so long to purchase one. Our garden isn't very large and in the past, did fall and spring prep work by hand with various garden hand tools. Arthritis in my spine started to get worse this year, so decided to buy the TJ604E to do the fall turning of the garden. No more back breaking work for me! It was very easy to use and had the job done in no time flat. It was so easy, I am actually looking forward to spring to prep the garden for planting! Highly recommend the TJ604E.

Perfect for my garden. Heavy duty and yet compact. Ideal for a home garden. Wish I had this years ago.

This is very powerful and capable of tilling your backyard or garden. Take it slowly and let it dig deep or you can go back over where you tilled. Once you do the length do the width. I did a 440 square lawn with ease. It makes it a thrill to till!

Have had a larger gasoline powered tiller in the past but as birthdays accumulate (69) and garden got smaller I found the need to down size a little. This tiller was just the ticket,easy to handle and use,less noise,less maintenance and all the power and capacity I need. Great purchase
