Great machine!
I purchased this over other brands due to the reviews. I now feel comfortable paying a higher price for the Mantis. Easy start, easy to use (best going backward as noted in previous reviews). I was leary using it on sod but it did a great job attacking it and doesn't get tangled very easily (will get some of course). I used it all summer edging, tilling and removing sod. So far, so good.
Waited years to buy
I thought about buying the Mantis Tiller for several years. I ordered the video and watched it each spring. I was hesitant about spending the money on something I would only use once in a while. Last spring I finally decided to buy the Mantis. I figured I use it to get my garden going, it wouldn't meet my expectation and I could send it back for a refund. Well, this tiller is everything they say it is. I wouldn't part with it and I've used it many times during the year,I even aerated my lawn.
All the way to Hawaii
The Mantis is a great tool for my medium size yard but you can not beat Amazon's free shipping. Cost of shipping to Hawaii can cost more then the product itself.
Mantis tiller and attachment

Also purchased the Thatcher and aerator attachments. Also did a fantastic job. Boy did the Thatcher bring out the dead grass. Make a bigger job than... more info
