Excellent value for money without compromising on quality and efficiency
This item is a god send! Without it I would have been digging up my garden for weeks whilst breaking my back, all so I can lay grass seed for a new lawn! But since having this rotavator my soil gets churned up in minutes saving myself a whole world of aches and pains. The turning power is strong and makes easy work out of hard compacted turf and mud. I have quite a long garden but managed to dig up all the turf within an hour, and what is more the speed of the blades is proficient enough to fine down the soil so it isnt clumpy, making little work for a rake and seed scatter. This is by far the cheapest Rotavator on the market but it doesnt compromise in quality or efficiency, which means this is amazing value for money. A must have for anyone wanting to grow a fresh lawn. You wont regret this purchaseVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Hardworking angry little machine
This wonderful little machine has some very good reviews online and its easy to see why. We had an approx. 100sqm new-build backyard to rotavate. It was in a terrible state as the builders where unable to do any tidying up or rotavating before handing us the keys due to Covid-19. With no We could have spent over 1000 pounds getting a professional to sort the garden for us but we decided to take on the task ourselves and get our hands dirty. We ordered this on a Wednesday night and it arrived by Friday morning. By midday on Saturday we had finished half the garden. Again, this was a parcel of land that was really more of an abandoned building site than a family garden, full of embeded stones of all shapes and sizes and the occasional piece of debris. This machine was able to deal with all the stones. Although one or two got stuck in between the blades. When this happened I simply unplugged the machine and pulled the stone away, with some considerable effort one one occasion. Sadly one of the blades broke after hitting perhaps one embedded boulder too many. Other than those incidences, and another annoying incident involving those angry little blades and the power cable (just make sure you follow the instructions and rotavate in the forward direction only, and pay attention to where the cable is at all times), there was no real negative experience. All in all, we were able to completely rotavate and rake the backyard over the course of two or three afternoons, working at a leisurely pace. The yard is now ready for a layer of topsoil and turf. I've never done any garden work before now, but this machine has really encouraged me to at least try everything myself

Brittany piece of machinery
Had a Aldi best buy but after a lot of work the motor finally dropped off. So was looking for another cheap one. Seriously best thing I could of bought.

Hope to have it for years to come.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great labour saving rotavator
This machine feels like a bit of a wild animal at first but you soon get the hang of keeping it under control. It's power easily dealt with some very heavy clay sub-soil and turned an area that was almost impossible too dig into one of loose finer grade soil. I am really pleased with this rotavator as it has saved me a lot of hard hand digging and will continue to do so as we cultivate our large garden.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Back saving little gem
This tiller has handled everything it has been thrown into, no problem churning through the heavy clay soil or compacted lawn I through at it. Not completely easy to use but so much easier than a spade and fork. It will bounce around a bit while getting used to it on the first pass of the ground, but does such a great job preparing the ground for planting. So happy I bought this machine it has made my gardening tasks a world easier. 5*Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The best gardening tool I own.
This product is absolutly 1st class. I have a large garden and each year takes me at least 2 days to turn over 3 beds... back breaking. A friend recommended a tiller/rotavator (something I had not given much thought to previously). Had a look online, lots of models from £40 - £400. Found this product from Iforce, MarketZone, price was £69.99, so thought I would take a chance. Product arrived within 24hrs (3 days ahead of projected delivery date). Very easy to assemble, clear instructions. I wasn't expexting too much but how wrong I was. Tried it on a small bed area first (this normally takes about 4 hrs to turn over), this product did it in 10 mins! instantly ready for planting. To say this is a relativly cheap product with only a 800w motor the results are incredible. Takes a little time to get used to when first using it but it's worth it. I really enjy my gardening but I do hate the yearly turning over of soil, now I can get the whole garden done in a day. Clear the stones and swigs from the area first and then away you go. Can't recommend this product enough!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great little rotavator!
Great little rotavator for a medium sized garden. Even after the very dry weather it cut through the soil easily. As others have said takes a little while to get the hang of it but once you do it does a really good job. Easy to put together, compact which makes it easy to store. Great price too.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Does what it says...lightweight, easy to clean, compact for storage.
I purchased a new 2HP 2 stroke cultivator and had to buy the oil and petrol plus a can. Within 20 mins the gearbox jammed and had to send back. Decided to try an electric, less hassle if I don't cut the cable while using. This is simple to use, easy to clean and works. It takes about 30 mins to get into a flow, and I did find backwards created the best results. Maybe the blades are backwards!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

It does what it says on the tin i bought it to do my garden borders sorted them in 15 min 60 meters .400 wide. you need to take care it is a powerful piece of kit and you have to make sure that the power cable is well cleare it would be easy to trap other than that good kit worth £70 just to do the borders onceVerified purchase: YesCondition: New
