Pro's:
Has enough power for my uses
Heavy enough to sit on workbench without sliding about
Price was very competitive
Has dust extraction outlet
Runs fairly quietly
Con's:
Assembly was a bit poor and bolts holding belt guard
to body dislodged requiring dismantling and reinstalling bolts.
Product does what was intended and carry bag is handy to store anywhere. Found useful in the bush and at home so have no problem recommending this item to others.
Purchased this tiller as I need to take some pressure off my back, and reduce the amount of digging that I do. It arrived promptly (about 4 days), and took about an hour to assemble, add oil etc. I have now used it on a number of rows in the vegetable garden. It certainly tills well, and has sufficent power. However, it does require a degree of strength to 'steer' it (because of it's weight, and propensity to run away when not fully pushed into the ground), and it uses pins that very inconveniently have to be inserted, removed and reinserted into the wheels to allow it to free wheel. The next main test will be how long it lasts .. obviously I can't comment on this as yet.
Have not had a chance to use yet. Box had been picked up by fork lift. Oil has leaked from machine and continues to do so. Parts found on the ground in the street after falling out of holes. Multiple large holes in box. Some external water damage. Booked for delivery. Did not come. Box marked fragile and this way up. Not treated fragile and laying against the arrows. I think you would prefer no photo as machine covered in oil. Not happy yet. Much cleaning to do and inspect for damage before oil replacement, oil I had already paid for.
After unpacking this disc/sander I was disappointed with the sub standard finish of the castings particularly around the housing of the disc. It seems they don't have much of a quality control system in place at even a basic level. I almost packed it up and was going to send it back but I decided to try it out and shape some wood I had lying around and I must admit, surprised. The motor is quite powerful at 500 watts and it easily sanded the wood I presented to it a various pressure levels. It did not stall at all. It also is not that noisy. The tolerances on the slider bar leave a lot to be desired but quite usable and overall not too bad. It is a shame that they could not get the castings right or at least reject the ones that don’t come out of the mold square and proper. I may be a bit picky, but 90 degree angles on the base corners should be 90 degrees not 80 degrees etc. Overall, I guess at the price I paid, compared to the competition, it has a more powerful motor and does the job easily and was significantly cheaper. I just throw a rag over it in my workshop so I don’t have to look at it when I am not using it..

Side sander on such a slant it locked on first run, and is useless.
