I'm delighted after a month and over 50 holes dug. Super easy to set up and use. It's powerful. I've learnt that patience in using smaller size augers first, saves some torque wrenching - especially in stoney ground or with roots.
Have currently dug 150 holes with medium sized auger 15 strainer post holes one meter deep it's working well so far past. Post hole diggers that I have owned in the past the gearbox has worn out on them so only time will tell if that happens to this one
Is pretty quiet and easy to start, runs really well, as good as the centrifugal clutch is it does kick in a bit early for me so really like just hang an uninterrupted dig, small rocks can stop the rotation but I’m saying that it beats becoming a human helicopter
better than expected very good
Runs well for its size
Perfect for our lifestyle block. Done dozens of fence posts, retaining wall posts and smaller work - a huge time and labour saver. Easy enough for an able person to handle. Starts easily as all the Hyundai engine seem to. Be a bit careful in wet soil to go slower and let it clear out the diggings (hold it up if you have to). Went a bit fast once and it corkscrewed right into the ground and I ended up having to dig it out.
Good motor as could be expected but that's really the only selling point here. Poor engineering makes auger changes fiddly . Poor welding finish makes the front edge grab my shirt . Lightweight control switch. Have to adjust choke to get best performance. After 2 months use it feels like the motor has less torque .
This was the only borer I could find with a 100mm auger, to plant root trainers in very hard clay. Have done around 100 so far. Hugely impressed. Easy start and easy for one person to handle.
Great tool been fantastic so far easy to use
Heap of grunt and always starts 2nd pull
