Just got this today, went to the garden and about 2 or 3 pushes through dirt and middle digger breaks off! Sheared right at the bolt. Wasn't even being hard on the unit. I would suggest folks steer away from this one. I'm going to buy a Garden Weasel instead.

Nothern Hydraulics has rude and incompetent customer service. I ordered the sod buster and it never came. I got billed and customer service insisted there was no order. I had to resolve it with a master card dispute.
I did eventually buy a subsoiler/middle buster at my local tractor store and I love it.

A bummer, the tines were to small, should have been 7 1/2" in length and were only 6" long, web site did not disclose specs just stated that they would replace the original BCS tines ---- well it let me poking the dirt until I got the correct ones from the BCS shop a couple of bucks more but at least they do the job properly --- don't be to cheap!!!

The ACE Trading-garden Tool Apex GT0721F Rotary Garden Cultivator is exactly what I was hopeing for. I like how it is made of steel instead of plastic, and it is very versitile, by being able to remove blades, it can be customized to the need at hand. It comes with a very short handle, very usefull if you are on the ground, but if you want to stand up, and use this you are going to need another longer handle. I used a simple wooden broom handle.

Fiskars 9866 Telescoping Rotary Cultivator Review

I purchased this from Lowes. Tines are aluminum, but rest of unit is constructed from hard plastics/flimsy metal. The handle telescopes and is extended when in use, using a plastic twist-lock to lock the handle open. Tines break up dirt fine, but if you exert any 'elbow grease' i.e. downward pressure on the tool, the upper-half of the handle slowly collapses/slides downward. Needless to say was returned.

Garden Weasel Gold Garden Claw Cultivator 91306 Review

Garden Weasel Gold Garden Claw Cultivator 91306
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a handy tool for cultivating small areas, but it is not appropriate for anything more than a medium sized flowerbed. The handles work well to gain leverage, but you will feel it in your muscles if you attempt to do too large an area!
The fact that it isn't powered lets you get into areas you wouldn't want to go with even the smallest of tillers, and it does a great job of breaking up the ground to a depth of a couple of inches, which is perfect for flowers.
For larger projects, use a mini-tiller, and use this tool for the detail work and the smaller beds. Both tools are a good combination to have at your disposal.

Garden Weasel Review

Garden Weasel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am probably taking my life in my hands by reviewing this item and angering the millions of Garden Weasle's fans, but it just doesn't do it for me. The only way this works in maintenance mode is if the soil has been tilled at the beginning of the planting season and virtually pulverized. If you work your soil and ammend it with add'l peat and topsoil this works o.k. Unfortunately, I don't do anything that labor intensive in spring and usually have a hard time using this. It is an enormous physical struggle to work this contraption through the garden. I suspect that anyone who works their soil before planting will find this does a satisfatory job. I unfortunately probably don't do as much prep-work as I should and find the results lackluster at best.

BCS Tiller Tractor 732 340CC Honda #8C1V0580 Review

BCS Tiller Tractor 732 340CC Honda #8C1V0580
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
While I don't personally own this tiller, I too have rented it on several occasions for use as a tiller. I have no experience with the other attachments. This tiller is a beast to be sure, but I've never experienced any "runaway" problems with it. This is largely due to the fact that it's a gear driven machine and "running away" is virtually impossible. It has two speeds and neither will make you trot.
The tiller has a selectable differential drive allowing for very easy turns at the ends of rows, or locked in for better traction in the mud. Nice feature. It does a fantastic job cutting through sod and even cutting a new row, I rarely have to till the row more than twice to get the soil where I want it. I use this for the heavy work and a little Honda FG110 for weeding and maintanence.
The BCS is a rock-solid performer and pretty nearly indestructable . There's a reason equipment rental businesses rent these out to the general public, after all. My only peeve with them are their prices, both initially and later when you buy add-ons. True, because it's a multi-usage system you'll save money in the long run over buying single purpose machines if you collect the add-ons, but the initial price is still a jaw-dropper.
All things considered this is a superb machine and I highly recommend it to anyone doing some serious tilling.

Power Paws went together very quickly and did a good job on my garden. You have to be careful not to let the PP "hop" on you. You need to pay attention to the angle you hold it in relation to the ground, but you should catch on quickly.

Troy-Bilt Pony Electric Start 16-Inch 250cc 4-Cycle Briggs & Stratton 1100 Series Garden Tiller Review

Troy-Bilt Pony Electric Start 16-Inch 250cc 4-Cycle Briggs and Stratton 1100 Series Garden Tiller
Average Reviews:

I have used my Pony Troybilt for 2 years now and I am very dissapointed. The quality of this machine is very sad.It starts fine and tills in a straight line just fine. But welds in several places have cracked with only moderate use and the battery did not even last for one season. It is a single speed machine w/ a very cumbersome reverse knob and it becomes quite difficult to get it turned around. The ergonomics are lousy now. You will need plenty of flat, level space to make turns and good upper body strength. I had a larger Troybilt tiller many years ago and it was great, but now I think after the company was bought out, they are just living off the old reputation and it is very over priced for the quality of the product.

Mantis 1322-00-02 Tiller Tine Detangler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The tines on the Mantis are fairly closely packed, and it is inevitable that you will wind some fibrous roots around them while tilling. The Detangler works great at picking them out without bruising or scratching up your knuckles on the tines. It has a vinyl wrapped handle to make it somewhat grippy, and fits easily and comfortably in your hand. A must-have accessory.

Mantis 7250-15-02 3-Speed Electric Tiller/Cultivator with Border Edger and Kickstand Review

Mantis 7250-15-02 3-Speed Electric Tiller/Cultivator with Border Edger and Kickstand
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased the Mantis based on the reviews of the model without the kickstand (that one had nearly 40 reviews at the time but cost $100 more). You have to watch the prices on these as Amazon constantly changes the price (put one in your cart and the price will likely chage from day to day or week to week). From what I tell the one offered here with a kickstand and the one without are the same (except this one includes the kickstand...a nice bonus).
I'm using the Mantis to till an area where I had an above ground pool. I am well pleased that this thing performs better than I could have hoped for. At first it bounces until it gets it's teeth into the ground then it just eats down to about 9 inches pulverizing the soil and the bit of sand I couldn't remove. It chitters on rocks but the tines seem no worse for the rock contact. I've learned when it's hitting a rock and sort of let it work around the sides of the rock. Sometimes it just kicks the rock behind it.
I should mention this thing makes almost no noise. You can easily work at dawn without waking neighbors. It was also easy to put together; however, the kickstand was a bit of pain to install as the bolts are hard to get to (the main body is in the way).
I give this 5 HUGE stars. I love this thing.

Atom ATTILH6 13-Inch 6-Tine Honda 25cc 4-Cycle Gas Powered Tiller Review

Average Reviews:

We needed a small ,light tiller. This fit the bill. Easy to handle and starts easily. No mixing gas. We weren't familiar with the Atom brand as it's an Aussie import but the website provided a lot of information. The Honda motor is small but turns the tines very well. Digs better than I ever expected. Leaves the ground like powder. My husband likes to run it backwards! Says it digs even better.
I was very skeptical of buying this type of tiller and waited a few months to write a review to see if we liked it. I have found myself quite happily surprised with this purchase. I would recommend for small gardens and for someone unable to use those big heavy tillers.

Mantis 1622-00-02 Tiller Tines
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wore all the tines off my tiller tines over the course of the last 2 years. They did not break, but when they are less than 2 inches long from the hub and straight, they don't dig very well. After installing new tines, my tiller was back to new again. I used it to plant 6 apple trees, 2 pear trees, 5 peach trees, 2 plum trees, 18 blueberry bushes, and 7 lilac plants with no problems. In a couple of weeks, I will plant about 30 rows, 100ft long in the garden all with the new tines. They make preparing the ground easy work. If your tines are worn, I highly recommend new ones.
