I am impressed! I was skeptical
that this little 20 lb machine could do the job. No more!
We got it a few days ago and I put it together. We had
some tough jobs for it and it worked so much better than
I thought it would. I won't be borrowing the neighbor’s
big tiller anymore and they might be borrowing my Mantis!

I admit I was skeptical for some time, as to how well
a tiller so small would do in hard clay. I was amazed
by the fact that it actually does a BETTER job than my
big, back-breaking tiller, and with little or no effort!!!!
Pulverizes the clay into a nice powdery soil without those
annoying lumps!!! Believe me, my back is as grateful as
I am!! My heavy tiller has already found a new home. Thank
you, Mantis!!! (wish I hadn't waited so long to try it...)

"I am a contractor, hands on,
love to do the work. For years I have worked inside the
home and always when it came time to landscape, I'd move
right outside to get involved. I've always worked with
either my 8hp Troy-Bilt or rented a front tine tiller
from a local yard. I have read about the Mantis for years
and finally purchased one last fall, what a change it
has made in my approach to the job. I'm nearing the end
of a complete regrade of a yard, front and back and have
barely pulled out the Troy-Bilt, I have done almost everything
with my Mantis. I find I can't wait to get it started.
I have created raised beds, tilled existing beds, graded
the lawn area and tilled in the fertilizer with energy
to spare. And the getting into corners doesn't even require
a shovel anymore! Thanks Mantis, I don't have enough good
words to say about you."

"When
the Mantis arrived, we tried it out on a vegetable bed
and it worked just fine. Then we gave it the 'big test'
on a portion of barren hard-packed yard. Wow, what a job
it did - turning the soil and chopping roots with ease!
What a pleasure to use - no sweat - no strain - no pain!
Never again will we have to rent a tiller, work like crazy
to get it back on time, leave a big deposit, need two
people to put it into and out of the car, get bounced
all over and wind up with sore arms and headaches."
Ruth & Patrick E. - New York
"Finally the day came, I gassed
up my new Mantis, pulled the starter cord three times
and away we went. I've been a Mantis lover ever since!
The more I use it, the more I love it. Our garden is about
30' x 30', so space is tight. When I get to the end of
a row, I can pick it up, over and into the next row I
go. Not like with a big tiller, where I'd be driving out
into the yard, making a big swing and chewing up all the
grass just to turn around!"

"I traded a 6-hp Troy-Bilt Tiller
to purchase one of your Mantis Tillers. Best investment
I ever made! We have more than 60 rose bushes and a 70'
x 30' garden which was hard clay and stones. No more!
With your tiller, I work in all the leaves, grass and
manure. I have beautiful soil and no hard work. Plus the
best part…no weeds between the rows!"
