I have just moved house and acquired a roughly 1000 sq metre garden, which has been untended for over 5 years. I would be grateful for any advice - especially any based on personal experience - on the kind and, particularly, the brand of garden machine which is most likely to be effective and reliable (and reasonably priced, if possible!)in breaking up, preparing and maintaining the ground, for vegetable plots and borders etc.
Many of the brands available in the UK are difficult to find here (SW France): some which are easily available are Kubota, Al-Ko and Sterwins, so I'd be interested in any comments on these.
Many thanks for reading this.
