Has anyone got one of these? How do they perform? How light are they to
use?

I saw an advert in the Garden News and wondered if it was worth getting
at
£50.



waste of £50........they will hardly scratch the surface.

You've either never owned one or have incredibly hard compacted soil. I
have an electric Mantis tiller. It copes well with weeds, digs comfortably
to a depth of 10", produces a lovely tilth, weighs just 9.5 kg, and I'm
absolutely delighted I bought one last year.

yes, I compared it to my FI's £350 B&S petrol which breaks through anything.

So if you buy this £50 model you have to dig over compacted soil
first.........
