I took delivery this morning of this electrically powered machine and after
giving it a go I am very impressed with it on my light soil.
Ok it does not go very deep but the top 8" of the bit I tried is a delight,
nice fine tilth to sow on, and quick too.
The area I covered in 10 minutes (2m by 3m) would have took me half a
morning to get similar results. It took me longer to rake it even. Can't
wait until the soil is a bit drier to do the whole lot.
I can't imagine it being much good on heavy soils though as the motor was
under some stress(well it sounded like it) with mine.

All in all I think it was £50 well spent. Time will tell.

BTW nearly forgot.
Took 1/2 hour to assemble, but straight forward to do.
