  • Works as it should. I’m very happy with purchase
Best Buy I’ve ever made. As many have stated it can kick you if you hit stones or any other hard material. You have to take it slow, hold the handles carefully and pull up each time up to clear the dirt out and other materials like stones otherwise it paid for itself already in my case and I’m very happy for this purchase. Well made and if you’re careful easy to use and a very good price. ... show more

  • Excellent Performance; Great for Backyard Projects; Worked Far Better than Small Rental Auger
I was truly surprised just how well this inexpensive electrical auger worked. The auger bit that comes with it cuts through the ground exceptionally well. I also used their 10" and 12" bits, which worked exceptionally well also. This auger had much more torque and power than the small gasoline augers you buy or can rent from a big-box store. Also surprisingly, the auger bit on this cuts into the ground much better than the bits that come with rental augers from the local orange big-box store. As in, it was a no-contest on how well the Xtremepower bits cut through the soil. That really surprised me too because the bits form the big-box rental department look mean in comparison. Only safety negative I have is that if you hit a root or rock, it will not shutoff. For a safety I have a helper hold the cord taunt but night tight from behind and to my right. This way, when you do hit a rock or root, if the unit begins to twist in your hands, it will simply unplug itself and stop turning. This worked exceptionally well in the areas where I have dead tree roots under ground. (Note that this is good advice for any cored power tool of this nature, I would never tie a night in the cord to keep it plugged in. You *want* something like this to come unplugged if the cord is pulled!) ... show more

  • Worth the money. Saves you time.
For the money, you can't beat it. I've done a few holes with the 6" that comes with. Does great. Medium to large roots will stop it. No big deal. I had two 6x6 cedar post I wanted to do to build an outdoor swing. I bought the 12" bit/auger made by xtremepower for this auger. It handle the 12" bit surprisingly well. My yard is nothing but clay soil. I had my Sawzall and 18v pruning shears ready to cut the larger roots as I came across them. The smaller roots can slow or stop the 12" auger fairly easy but I didn't mind. Just cut them with a Sawzall then start auging again. Beats an old school post hole digger and shovel. My 6kw portable generator has no problem running this auger. Never trips the breaker even when it binds up. ... show more

  • So far, so good. With a few caveats. Would DEFINITELY purchase again, though.
Recently moved to almost 2 acres of land, none of which has been fenced in. Problematic for our 4 beagles. I have grown weary of taking them on walks 3 times a day in 100 degree heat in the Texas summer. Time to build a fence (and doggie door). Got quoted anywhere from $800 to $2000 just to dig holes for fence posts. Have rented a gas powered auger with less than stellar results. Working one of those monstrosities yourself is next to impossible, without Hulk-like strength. And at current rentals upwards of $200/day, looking into purchasing this seemed a good option. Alarmingly light, when pulling out of the box, compared to its gas-powered cousin, I had my doubts as to how it would stack up. So far, so good. I can go at my own pace, digging as many (or few) holes as I want in a given day. I have over 100 to do. At around $160 or so, purchasing this new, at a fraction of rental seems like a no-brainer. It IS indeed every bit as powerful as the 1500w motor advertised. Couple things to consider. Some of which have already been covered: 1) This thing has NO reverse gear. You WILL get stuck on occasion, unless you go slow, a few inches at at time, and pull up while engaging the engine. It will clear the soil, and give you the chance to dig deeper. Having said that, with no reverse, if you aren't careful, your hands, arms and shoulders will bear the brunt of the force when it stops. The auger will stop, but the motor won't. Wear padded gloves. Especially on your left hand. Trust me, your hands will thank you later. 2. You'll need a at least a 14ga extension cord that can handle the wattage/amperage this thing puts out. I bought 2 - 100' 14ga extension cords so reaching the back of our property wouldn't be an issue. Depending on how many holes you dig, or how far away from a power source you'll be, make sure to have enough cord to accommodate your needs. 3. It is slow. Probably designed purposely, but wasn't expecting it to go so slow. High torque/slow speed. So, get a wide stance, brace your arms, but keep loose and watch out for debris. 4. Which gets me to the last point. This will not cut through roots, rocks or anything of substance. Its for dirt. If you hit any of those things, it will bind up on you and kickback or get stuck. Refer to 1 & 2 above. A rock bar or shovel (sometimes a hammer or saw) will do the dirty work of clearing your workspace. Knowing all that, cutting into just about any soil is a breeze. Once you get the hang of it, you can knock out a 24" hole in less than a minute, under ideal conditions. For me, it is worth every penny so far. Time will tell on its longevity. I suspect those that complained "it died on the 2nd use" or whatever, probably used a smaller gauge extension cord, and burned up the motor. Once I'm done with it, I can sell it, and still make out pretty well, cheaper than a rental overall. Or maybe rent it out myself. LOL Good luck and if I can do it, I'm betting you can, too. Now, get to digging! ... show more

  • Totally awesome by surprise!!
After having my relatively new 2cycle (HF) auger crap out on me.. with 20 holes to go.. and wasted half a day tinkering on it , I happened on this electric auger. Being a little skeptical, but overwhelmed by the idea of being able to just pick it up and have a usable tool, I went for it. I have a small 80cc firman generator that worked just fine. I threw it on the tractor along with the auger, and took off. I WAS BLOW AWAY BY THIS LITTLE BEAST!!! It munched through roots, and dug into gumbo (a thick clay soil that’s either gooey or super hard ..smoking tools in a heartbeat)… This little auger made my day so easy!! Really.. I don’t want to work harder.. the ergonomics are good, and I was less fatigued due to its lighter weight! My post are 200lbs, so any cut on labor is a blessing. And do you know what the next best part is??? I know that if it sits for a year.. it’s still gonna work!!! I am delighted with this purchase!! And I hope it does as well for you!! I have a feeling I will be digging more holes just because it is so darn effective! Quality: good, Power: good, ergonomics: good. Auger bit: good, sharp. I do hope this tool makes you as happy as it did me. ... show more
