Summary: I love it!
Comment: We are avid gardeners and creating beds the old-fashion way using a fork was back-breaking. This little tiller is the does the nice edging and the tilling!
In cold weather, the 4-cycle engine fires-up after a few pulls. When warm, a single pull is all that is required. It weighs about 20lbs and is easy to maneuver. The changing of times to the edger attachment takes less than a minute.
The tines are super strong! We have very rocky soil and to my surprise, the tines have lasted this long! Tilling has never been so easy. Mantis has created a product that almost every gardener can use. We are more than satisfied with it!

Summary: Bad Choice
Comment: I used the tiller 1 time. After that time it sat for 1 week. All the oil leaked into the cylinder. Mantis would not repair or refund. Honda did not know how to fix. Mantis said they would send a new tiller but never received. Suggest not dealing with Mantis products because of poor customer service.

Summary: Tiller review
Comment: Was happy with the ease of assembly and clear insructions. Engine started fairly easily and is quiet. I had used an old Mantis before and the new 4 stroke Honda is a nice improvement. Works very well on good garden soil. It doesn't have the power or weight to take on rocky soil or too many tough roots. Overall a good product and a labor saver for my modest garden.

Summary: Quieter, less fumes, no need to mix oil/gas
Comment: Overall, I love this tiller. Compared to the 2 cycle engine, it seems to be much quieter, and the emissions are less. (Direct comparison in the dealership, in addition to what I read). I have other 4 cycle machines that take regular gas, so the convenience of just adding gas is nice. If you have a lot of 2 cycle machines that all use the same oil/gas ratio, and you keep a can filled with that, than you will probably be happier with the 2 cycyle Mantis (it's significantly less $)
As far as its function, it turns over a 12x4 raised bed for the garden in a few minutes easily, much nicer than doing it by hand like I used too! I can get all my beds ready for spring planting in less than an hour. It is not powerful enough to till established sod or thick vegetation, so if you are looking to start a new bed, consider renting a BIG monster tiller for the task, or using the lasagna gardening technique.
