These get good reviews, and I can see why. Started 2nd pull out of the box. I augered over 150 holes planting trees, and auger ran great.

I needed this auger to place wood and steel fence posts in hard clay and soil in the foothills of Colorado. This is a very nice, compact and powerful little machine. I used 4 inch and 6 inch augers. For steel posts, the 4 inch auger worked much better than just pounding them in. I could get the posts straight and more securely positioned. The engine started just fine, exactly according to the instructions. I found it easy to set it on a sturdy bucket to start it. Once started, one pull gets it restarted after the auger is attached. No problem with power; it just digs and digs unless you hit a big rock. I did a lot of research before buying this product and find myself very satisfied. I would buy it again.

The media could not be loaded. This is my opinion after using this tool -- This is an amazing product. I dug 31 holes over a 6 week span. Sadly, 30 of those holes hit rocks which required me to also purchase a jack hammer. This is a great tool if you are only digging in clean dirt, clay or otherwise. You do not want to try or think this will just plow right through rocks or concrete, it won't. When you do work like this, you need a tool that starts and performs. This tool does that. In fact, I left mine running most of the time even if I set it down to clean out the hole with the post hole diggers. Yes, you will still need post hole diggers to clean the holes out. Originally, I purchased the 6" auger and then an 8". It was much easier to just dig with the 8" auger. Most of my holes were between 26 - 30 inches. I would absolutely buy it again. My video is using the 8" auger.

I received this with a 10" auger and set it up eagerly. I'd seen online videos of augers that drilled in seconds... so I get is powered and head out to a spot I needed to bore and 5 minutes later my heart sank. I barely got 2 inch deep. Maybe I wasn't throtling enough being my first time to use, but am I mean to rev it to super hi like with a chain saw? Most chains saws cut when revved up to full. So maybe I was being too delicate. But if not, then the engine is rather weak. I'll try it again tomorrow. This time I'll rev it up real good and it had better work or else the rating remains the same or goes down one. Otherwise the engine is nice, small enough to carry around, but requires a second 'man' to hold it while you start it up. UPDATED REVIEW: Managed to rev the engine to max and that seems to be the point where it gets it's power. So rev it up good. Then avoid clay or black cotton soils. Those can be hard to drill. Managed to get a large hole dug in a few minutes, but the soil is not lifted out, so I have to scoop it. I blame it on the soil. So this is a great tool... but more power needed to handle clay and black cotton.

This allowed me to plant 300 trees in two days. The tank lasts quite a while, it isn't too heavy, and it's easy to operate. I did have one issue with the engine starting. When I filled the tank it was a warm day, everything was fine. The next day the temperature dropped by about 40 degrees. I couldn't get the damn thing started; seemed like the engine wasn't getting any gasoline - and it wasn't. Turns out that the gasoline had shrunk with the temperature change and the negative pressure was preventing anything from getting to the engine! Just had to open the cap to equalize the pressure and things were fine. After that, starts every single time with just a few pulls. I love this thing. It saved me an incredible amount of time and effort compared to using a planting bar... Never, ever again!

well-made we bought this for drilling 4" holes to feed trees [hundreds of holes]. This unit has plenty of power for that purpose, and is lightweight. It is mostly welded [bolts shake loose]. A few tips; If it keeps losing power/dying, first loosen the gas cap-if you hear a hiss, that just fixed it-the air vent is funky. if you hit something hard while drilling, don't fight it. Use a steel digging bar to smash through , then remove the debris and keep augering. to quickly pull dirt out of the augered hole, use a Shop Vac-just knock the dirt out of the filter periodically. if you are small, use 2 people. good luck!

This is a powerful little powerhead that one person can use. If you've never owned an auger before, take in mind that you'll need to buy a bit for it that is the exact size for the shaft, because each manufacturer has their own size shaft and it is near impossible to find an adapter to fit a different manufacturer's bit. Don't just buy a bit on Amazon that says this is what other people bought when they bought this powerhead!!! I learned this the hard, frustrating and expensive return postage way!! If you're looking to put 4x4 posts into the ground, I recommend an 8" bit. This powerhead will dig right down through the hard Kansas clay and will greatly lessen your work time! Depending on the bit you buy, you'll also need to keep in mind that the bit will not always draw all the dirt out of the hole, so you should also use a manual post hole digger to pull out the excess dirt.

I bought this machine to help loosen the ground prior to planting a hedge. The depths of holes were about 18 inches in soils not too hard.The machine did OK for the first 20 holes and then,it seems that the clutch is stuck.This means,as soon as the engine starts,and even with the throttle at the lowest,the machine starts to spin,making it impossible to use.This is only the first day of usage.I am planing to return it.
