This is the real deal. It weighs 100lbs. The outside tines are turned it so you can get right up next to the row. This tiller would cost $650 bucks in Harrisonburg, VA. The Briggs engine has gobs of low-end torque. The best on the market for tilling between rows. It's not a sodbuster even though I think it would do it. It's truly commercial grade and you see the flag. Husky got out of the tiller business, ( don't pay any attention to that pic above) and MTD pretty much makes the rest of the junk. So it's down to Merry or Maxim. I have a Merry to take care of the sod and was looking at a Merry Mini for 1200 bx which are sold in Harrisonburg. Then I spotted the Maxim mini online for half the money plus the outside tines are turned in perfect. I ordered one through the local farm bureau for 650 half of the money for the Merry. Then SLE is letting them go for almost a 3rd. The only thing missing is a bottle of Jack. Bought a cargo trailer off of SLE last fall and had it delivered to Bridgewater, VA, and still saved 500 bx over a local comparable model. SLE treats you right.
