Strengths Easy Starts, Engine has the power to rip ground.
Weaknesses Very poor machine balance, you break your back more than break the ground! Rattles a lot. Doesn't take much to stall engine
Overall Was a BAD purchase, I feel I wasted a lot of money! I prefer to use my old tiller then this one. I will never buy another CabCadet product.

Strengths Easy Starting, Tough, Well Built, Amazingly Easy To Control, Shift Between Forward And Reverse Tines. Easily breaks up sod and hard soils.
Weaknesses Only average belt life.
Overall Great machine used in a rental fleet past 4 months. Two tillers total with no major problems as to date. Outperforms our Troy-Bilt at half the price.

Review By : Anonymous on 6/30/2008
Price Paid : $700.00
Years of Use : 3+ Years
Implements :
Purchased From : HARDWARE
Strengths The choice of forward and reverse tines,
Weaknesses For the long list:
Eats belts like grazy at least 1 a year
Does not break hard ground (clay) have to use reverse tines and push for all your worth to make it move,
After three years of service have to put $300.00 into new parts in gear box because they use a heavy grease for lube in stead of a heavy oil, set up tine shaft bearings and tore up case half.
Overall Don't waist your money!!!!!
BUY A TROYBILT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
