What Customers Are Saying
The product has received mixed reviews. Some users found it easy to assemble, lightweight, and powerful for its size, able to handle tough soil and roots effectively. They appreciated its adjustable features. However, many reported issues with starting and keeping it running, especially when not level. Some also found it underpowered, especially at lower speeds. There were also reports of mechanical failures like drive train and tine breakage. The product may work well for some users but may not be reliable or durable enough for all, especially those with challenging soil types or larger gardens.

I purchased my YardMax model YT5328 from Lowes because they had the Lowes'est price of anyone else. I assembled it in about 30 minutes, put in the supplied oil, gasoline, and started it up in just 3 pulls, let it run about 10 minutes at idle speed, and then went to work with it. Very happy with it so far.

I was skeptical but it has gained my confidence
I was reluctant due to some bad reviews about not being able to start and shutting off when the angle of the motor changed due to some limit switch. I have had it shut off if I raise it up to high when turning, but it starts back up. It can be a bit finicky to start but low throttle and full choke and it fires up. The oil reservoir is a bit unhandy and the fuel cap is a bit tricky to get back on. I have busted up new ground and ran it through the garden to till out some weeds and it worked well ...

Have used this model for 2 years. Nearly impossible to start and when it does start difficult to keep running unless you use the choke. Went to use it today and cannot get it to run. Sad that it has these problems since when it does run it does a very good job. Wound not recommended to anyone.

Great Tiller
Easy to handle and lightweight. Once the settings are the way you need them it can practically run itself.
Dear Tommy, thank you for your feedback.

Off to a bad start
It has some features that I like but they are overshadowed by the issues of getting it started and keeping it running. Have been unable to use it. Really disappointed.

new tiller
The tilller was bought for a small garden without a lot of rocks. It works fine for that purpose. Would be nice if it had a reverse but it does not.

Great tiller
Our garden is 20' x 25' & it did a great job, since it was a new garden had to do it 3 times but it did the job.
