I just purchased the Mantis tiller after reading many reviews of it, and other machines. It really is amazing at how much this little tiller can do, especially considering it's size and weight. It started right up, and has a great feature of being able to idle even when you are not holding the handle. This makes it easy to do something else really quick and not turning off the engine every time. My vegetable garden is fairly extensive and was also quite filled with weeds. To the point where i couldn't even tell some of my plants from the weeds. Very embarrassing. I really tested the Mantis out and it only got clogged twice. Otherwise, it dug right into the soil and turned it over with ease. This is much easier to use than most other tillers due to it's size, and also it's handle position. It was great to get right in between the rows! The only issue was it's a bit akward to pull it towards you, but maybe I'll get more used to it the more I use it. Overall, I'd highly recommend this to any gardener!
