Great little tiller [Posted on 2008-04-21]
We just started a little garden this year, but this tiller did a great job digging up all the soil and pulling up all the rocks. It's a tough little machine. It did surprise me when we watched the training video that you have to walk backwards with it, but it's not too awkward to operate it. I would recommend it to anybody with a small garden.
One design problem [Posted on 2008-04-27]
I am sold on the Mantis and this is the 2nd one I have owned
The only problem I am having is with the off on switch, While tilling I am finding that my handkeeps shutting off the tiller.If the positions were switched to on off or moved completely the problem would be resolved.
Thank You

No Mantis in my butterfly garden, I guess. [Posted on 2008-04-27]
I bought a new Mantis from our local hardware store today. I was so excited, as I am doing quite a bit of work in the yard this year and was ready to prep a butterfly garden. Here's how it went:
The Good =
1. It was light, as promised.
2. No problem starting up.
The Bad =
1. No-go on the tines at ALL. We read the troubleshooting section of the owner's manual, followed the directions under "tines won't engage," with no results. That puppy was NOT going to go.
The Ugly =
1. We were in the parking lot of the hardware store to make an exchange or return (depending on if they had another one available) when the man who runs the power equipment rental aspect of the store called across to us, "Trouble with that one?" My husband and I walked it over to where he was and explained the fact that the tines would simply not engage. The man told us this: "Those things are infamous for giving people problems where the drive shafts are concerned. We used to rent them out here. Had five of 'em. But you go look on our shelves now and you won't see a single one. I just said I wouldn't rent them no more. The drive shafts kept going out on 'em. The folks at the register won't like me for telling you this, but I wouldn't recommend that to anybody. We've sold brand new ones and the drive shafts just go completely out in no time. You just give that to me, and we'll go in and get your money back." And that's what we did. He's dealt with a substantial number of these machines and apparently had more trouble with them than not, so I'll be looking for something else.
Very satisfied with Mantis tiller [Posted on 2008-05-03]
We are very happy with our new Mantis tiller. It is light weight and easy to use.

This tiller I should of bought years ago. I have a raised bed garden and couldn't use my big tiller any more for the last 8 years I have been digging it by hand. The Mantis brought my raised beds back to life. Would recomend it to everyone.
