I picked it up on a Friday and took it back on a Monday. I used it for about 30 minutes. I think most people would do MUCH better with a four pronged hoe. There may be a place for this if you are doing a brand new bed and want to break up some clods ... but for weeding it was a bust.

It's kinda heavy but if you aren't going to cultivate the whole garden it'll work. It does a good job. I don't know how long the battery holds it's charge. If I use it enough to find out I will let you know.

I found this to be a good product for small yard work. It cultivates the flowerbeds good. You can go down in the dirt and then go over a couple of more times and get deep. Pulls weeds well as it cultivates.

I love love love this cultivator! It does a great job loosening up the clay soil where I live. It makes it easy to get the weeds out by the roots. I cannot believe how easy it is to use. If I could rate it from 1-10, it would be a solid 10. It is a great tool and does a great job. And it's not too heavy to work with. And I really like the battery being interchangeable with other Black and Decker tools.The price is pretty good too. I would definetly recommend this to anyone thinking about buying it.

Can't handle the engine type rototiller, so looked for alternative. This answered my prayers. Light weight and does the tilling I can't. I am a73 widow with arthritis. So far, so good if it lasts, it is a miracle.

Completely worth the money. Has a little trouble with hard packed, rocky soil - but so does a shovel or even a monster tiller... Just water the ground... I have a small garden plot and am stunned at how quickly I was able to prep for planting! For a first time gardener, I am ALL about making things easy, so I don't lose interest. This gadget totally helped! Good luck finding one of these at your local hardware stores. No idea why they don't have tons in stock, but it was worth the snail mail wait!

I recently purchaed this to try and cultivate my yard. The soil is very hard and rocky and I wanted an easier tool than the manual cutivator to use. This worked perfect, it loosened the soil so I could pick up the larger rocks and throw down my grass seed right before it rained. This would also be good for people's flower beds, it really loosens the soil great and very quick!

I really like this product. It is very lightweight and easy to put together and take the battery in and out. I think it is quite woman-friendly because I am quite intimidated by power tools-especially those that are gas powered. I bought it to till a small garden and it has done the job well. However... 2 drawbacks. 1- The battery has to be recharged quite often- it can only be used about 30 straight minutes. 2- Clots of dirt get caught quite often in the tills and you have to stop and remove them by hand. Other than that, very cool.

This is a good product for lightweight work in small areas. Don't expect it to replace the what a regular tiller would do. It's a fun toy to use.

I have raised garden beds and very good soil,so the dirt/soil is easy to work up. The electric cultivator worked really well. we spread on trhis years fertilizer and worked it in with this cultivator. It also performed well on some weeds that grew during the fall. The only thing I would like better would be to make the cultivator blades 6 inches long so it would go a little deeper. We already have our onion and garlic planted as well as our peas.Very pleased with the product.

With economics in mind, this Black & Decker cultivator is a real bargain. Besides being lightweight and easy to use, it is a handy garden tool that works close up to existing plants and helps prepare the soil for new plants. I found it to be so much better than any gasoline or extension cord cultivator. I would buy it again and recommend it to all.

I bought this cultivator for my garden which is almost 100% screened loan. The unit runs in a back an forth motion not in full 360 rotations. Unit is slow and is strained on weeds and crabgrass. I was very disapointed with this unit. I will probably return it in the very near future.

This is a great machine for people who like to garden. I have clay soil and it breaks up the soil in my planters very well. I put in 3 new planters during my vacation and it loosen the soil to make planting much easier. I used it to break up the soil to spread new grass seed for my yard. The battery holds it charge for a long period of time without loosing power. Not much to assemble. Battery charges overnight, first charge. Other charges don't take much time at all. Very surprised but delighted. Light in weight. Metal cultivators. Love this machine. Helps to get the weeds out of the planters. Worth the money I spent on it to lessen my work load. Makes the garden really look neat and well cared for.

I am a longtime Black and Decker user. When I found out they had come up with a cultivator/ tiller I had to get one. I have not been disappointed. In my line of work I am always needing to till small areas to plant grass seed. It is perfectly suited for the task.

Great on small gardens as well as larger areas, Easy to assemble and adjust for operators height. Battery pack easy to assemble and remove from product Does a great job on cultivating and weeding. Just wished I had it years ago. Makes cultivating and weeding much earier. As with any power tool, wear the proper shoes and clothling. Make sure battery is properly charged and what I do is remove the battery from the cultivator after each use. Keep the tills and equipment clean.
