Customer Reviews for Troy-Bilt 9 in. 25cc 2-Cycle Gas Cultivator with SpringAssist Starting Technology

it broke within 30 minutes. I am packing to return it.

Works great so far. Starts easy and is light weight and easy to handle.

Spark plug was bad. Had to replace it before it would start. Still hard to start.

Very easy to use and is just the right size for my yard.

More power than you think.

I only got it to run 1 time and after that it went start.

What can I say? It's a troy. That says it all.

We have a large tiller to do the heavy digging. This was like a precision instrument to go between the plants.

I am satisfied with the performance. I have a small garden and the tiller did the job required. Would purchase again.

Worked for a garden bed and then died

Was a snap to assemble. Mixed fuel, primed and a started right up. have not had it in garden yet so don't know how well it works. have had super luck with other Troy-Bilt tools.

For a small cultivator, it met all my expectations.

Had hopes for this but as others have commented it is not an easy start. I followed directions exactly with fresh gas + oil/fuel mixture. After multiple tries to start, it finally did and had to warm up before running. The next day, I tried to start it and nothing happened. It never started. (yes pressed plunger the required 10x). The motor looked pretty standard, but the tines seemed thin compared to others. I returned the item and HD gave me no issues with the return. This is what I like about home depot, they will accept returns with the receipt during the return period. Since I had to order this online from HD site and sight unseen, this was important. Perhaps others have better luck Good going HD but Troy-Bilt I wonder. I had a troy bilt tiller in the past and it ran like a charm for many years.

As light tiller, It works good. Do no try to use in tell weeds or grass they will rap around the tines, real trouble. It is a light. I like and pull or weed eat the weeds before tilling

We used this to till my wife’s garden for over 6 years. It finally died this week. Something jammed up in the cylinder. Looked at a lot of others to replace it. We are now reordering this unit and expect to use it for another 6 years. One good thing about this unit is that it is easy to start. This is important because my wife is the primary user and she has a hard time starting gas engines. If you want this machine or any small engine to last this long you need to use ethanol free gas only. That is the only fuel that is use for all of our farm equipment. The only complaint that I have about this machine is that it is very difficult to get the cylinder head apart. If I could get it apartI could put this one back to work. Again great machine. Jim

Tiller would not start. Replaced Carb, Plug, fuel still wouldnt start. Took to small engines mechanic and determined internal failure recommending to throw the tiller away and replace. This was a well maintained tiller and it didnt matter. Waste of money.
