    This was a great product for the price. Handled the tilling of our lawn before replanting, and tilling of our garden boxes. It was a great easy alternative to buying a full roto-tiller new or used for our small job. And stores in a pretty small space after the handle is folded down.

    So far works great 👍🏻
    As long as the ground is already broke up, it works great to pulverize the soil. Works good to keep grass down between rows.

    Surprisingly Awesome
    We were about to rent a roto tiller for the $60 a day and I thought before I do that, I should see how much they cost. Well then I saw this one, and my hubby said, no don't get an electric one, and then I read the reviews and they were stellar, so I thought why not. Well we were so extremely surprised at how well it worked. It is powerful and easy to control and will save us a lot of labor. Cause who wants to dig out 500 sf of grass. Anyway, we were very impressed with it.

    Light weight has plus & minuses. Sometimes more weight would help dig deeper, but easy to move when putting away. Plenty of power , cuts thru roots well, mixes soil very well, digs plenty deep with second pass.

    Absolute Beast
    I had low expectations for a $200 electric tiller. I was wrong. I tilled a 12x12 garden full of weeds in 15 minutes. It chewed through cedar roots and spit out rocks. It actually gouged rocks that were 3 inches. The blades didn't bend at all and it didn't slow down. Then I tilled a 20x10 patch of grass that I was going to re-sod. It took a little more effort but my Lil mule didn't slow down or overheat. I tilled for an hour and a half straight and she didn't stop once. 200 bucks well spent.

      Lasted couple hours, past warranty, now landfill!
      I bought mine in May 2020. I use it in a small vegetable garden. It takes me about an hour to till it. So, I used it in 2020, 2021 and 2022. I started to use it this year (2023). It worked for about 5 minutes and now it looks like the motor is burnt out. I read the manual when I bought it and it says for a 100 ft extension cord it should be 12 gauge so I also purchased a 12 gauge 100 ft extension cord so as not to stress the motor. Motor is still toast! So it basically lasted about 3 hours. In my view it is pretty much a disposable appliance. I wouldn't count on it lasting very long. I was satisfied with the way it operated but very, very disappointed in how long it lasted.

        Love it! Decided to give this a chance, and just like the reviews it definitely gets the job done- roots and all! Highly recommend, easy to assemble, and operate.

        Powerful little guy! I was pleasantly surprised tilling an area that had bunches of palm roots. A little hard to clean those that wrap around the blades, but worth the work.

        reason I'm not a sunjoe happy customer.
        I used the tiller in an area that I used to till with a mini gas tiller.The tiller has plenty of power but the tines kept getting bent from the rocks. I live in Arkansas and there are rocks every place. Although I was able to straighten them a few times they are now beyond repair. My main complaint is after tilling about 100 feet I have a none usable tiller because sunjoe does not have replacement tines. So it was a waste of money. I will now try to get my old tiller working again until parts become available.
