Mantis Lawn and Garden products Biography
Over 40 years ago, Mantis introduced an innovative product that would revolutionize gardening around the world – the Mantis Tiller/Cultivator; part of the Mantis lawn and garden product family. Before that time, garden tillers were big, bulky, heavy pieces of equipment, and tilling was not easy. Once it was demonstrated just how powerful and versatile this new Mantis Tiller was, even the most skeptical gardeners were won over. What competitors dismissed as a “toy” was nothing less than a lightweight, powerful, digging dynamo. The Mantis Tiller made tilling and cultivating accessible to millions of people who were unwilling or unable to tangle with old, behemoth rototillers.
No Mantis biography is complete without highlighting the 20 lb. Mantis Tiller/Cultivator. This lightweight, compact, and versatile small tiller does the work of tillers twice its size, tearing through the hardest soil in minutes. This tough little tiller has been empowering gardeners around the world since 1980. Built for a lifetime of usage, this tiller became the model for the products that followed. We’ve spent four decades creating compact lawn and garden products packed with big performance and we continue to improve on our product engineering, innovative design and high-quality manufacturing. After all, this is the Mantis standard. Learn more about why Mantis products are best in class.
