My garden is full of clay and it was consolidated after a long, dry summer and the rotovator worked great. I had to go through it 3 times, but it worked.

Very substantial piece of kit. Powerful enough to make light work of the garden areas compacted over many years. Heavy enough to be awkward at times to manoeuvre in tighter spaces.

Starts well, easy to use even for first time novices but best of all it does the job rather than skimming across the surface like a light one would.

This machine has saved me weeks of work digging on my allotment. I will definitely hire it again. Although it drives itself through the soil, you do need to have some strength as it is heavy. The machine is quick in reverse gear, so you have to be mindful you're in a safe environment to reverse.
