A Great Investment for my Garden! [Posted on 2007-08-08]
Now that I have tilled 7 small beds around my house, I wonder what I ever did without this thing. It's powerful, lightweight, quiet, easy to control, and makes quick work of our concrete-like Dallas clay soils. Complaints of bouncing are easily avoided by following the directions to pull rather than push it.
The only negatives I've experienced are: occasional tripped circuit breaker (when I run it too hard for too long), tines are a bit thin and can be bent on rocks/concrete, can only till to 6-8" without heroic measures (but that's still great for flower beds), and the handle is a bit long for a 5'4" person such as me. As for electric vs. gas, gas would give more freedom of movement, but be louder and require more maintenance. Electric is the clear winner for me, even despite the extension cord.
I strongly recommend this for small urban landscapes where a big tiller is not practical.

I bought this tiller about 5 years ago, and although I don't use it much anymore, and it's sat unused in my garage for a year or more, I had a small tilling job the other day and it still works perfect.Mantis 120-Volt Electric Tiller with Border Edger #7250-02-02
small but powerful [Posted on 2007-10-25]
I owned this tiller for 9 months. We already consumed vegetables (tomato, pumkin, squash) we grew in our backyard with the help of this machine.
Pros: powerful, lightweight but duable, easy to handle, overload protection.
Cons: expensive, not only tiller machine but also attachment if you need such as aerator. one star less is for the price.
One Terrific Tiller! [Posted on 2007-12-04]
For small around the house/yard plantings (shrubs, small trees, flowers) & for edging around trees, shrubs, & beds this tiller is about as handy as they come. It is lightweight, easy to use, & reliable for anyone willing to follow the directions for using it. I recommend it highly!
