I just assembled it. I sold my Mantis at the last Garage Sale. I am so tired of messing with gas and oil. The Mantis is a tough little animal, and I used the heck out of it. This Tiller appears to be very well made and, in my retirement years, will be more than capable. Had my shoulder replaced, and no more rope pulling for me. Going to use it this week and if it is less than expected....I'll be back! Don't think you will hear from me though.
This is a great device, works great, really digs deeps and gets the job done. really impressed with how much power this thing has. I would recommend this device to friends and family!
Haven't used it , just tried it out. It rips up the ground better than I expected, will take a little getting used to in order to control it well, and has plenty of power.
