Summary: Great workhorse
Comment: Just got this machine. Well, I got one close to this. I was planning on ordering this one from Amazon but found a clearance priced unit at Lowes with a 6HP OHV engine for a lower price and I was able to take it home right away (No shipping and waiting)
Got it home and it started right up. Extremely pleased with its performance. It tore right through my grassed in areas where I am starting a garden and flower beds. I was amazed at how quickly and how good of a job the tiller did on the soil. I dug out a 30' x 15' garden and over 100' of flower beds in just a few hours with no problems. The soil is ready for planting.

A few things, it is not as easy as the ads show. it is hard work to wrestle this (or any other tiller) around whilst digging. You will get a workout and if you are lacking upper body strength, you might find it to be too much. You might also consider the model with a reverse gear for added maneuverability. The rear tine design is miles ahead of using a front tine model however. This was a pleasure compared to a front tine.

A few specifics to this machine...
You have to pull a pin and slide the wheels on the axle shaft and reinsert the pin to engage the gear drive. Not the hardest thing to do but something to be aware of. The machine is very slow to transport unless you leave the wheels disengaged, shut off the engine and just push it. Also, if you chose to use the engine to transport the machine to where you are working, the tines will rotate as the wheels move. There is no way to have the unit propel itself without the tines spinning.

All in all, its more than I was hoping for. I was considering a Mantis 4 stroke but for less money, I was able to buy the correct machine as I would have been expecting way too much from a smaller tiller. Dollar for dollar, I couldn't be more pleased with the performance.

Summary: Troy-Bilt Tiller
Comment: We ordered this product back towards the 1st part of July. After several phone calls it finally arrived the 1st part of August. The add said it would ship within 3 days. When I uncrated the product I found the air filter housing had been broken, the choke lever was in the bottom of the crate. I tried piecing it back together and finally called Polsteins Home & Beyond. I was told that they needed to talk with their manager and would try to ship a replacement part to me. I waited and never heard back. I tried calling again but was put on hold for over 15 minutes then the phone call dropped. I sent an e-mail. I heard back within a day that they reviewed my complaint and would send me the information via e-mail with instructions on how to return the tiller. It has been two days and I still have not received anything from them. So if you are asking if we are satisfyed...no by a long shot.

Summary: Well Worth the Money
Comment: I purchased this to replace a tiller with reverse. I really had my doubts about it, but it really turned me around. I tilled the area I had for a garden in about 3 hours the first time and it is now taking me about 2 hours each time. I would recommend this Tiller to any one it is great.
