Gets the job done
Style: 209 cc
Starts on the first or second pull of the rope. Everything one could expect for a rear tine tiller Very powerful; ease of operation. I especially like the forward and reverse operation without tine rotation or just put it in neutral and easily move it around. This tiller changes tune and gets down to business when the ground is hard .Best tilling machine i have ever owned.

runs great!
Style: 209 cc
Ive had this tiller for two seasons now and it still runs great. starts on the second pull, every time. tills great in "forward" but not as good in "reverse." still good to have the reverse option to clean the tines as needed. My foam handle grips are starting to get some UV degrading, so keep it in the shed or at least out of direct sunlight so yours will look good longer.

For Amazon's price of May 2019 with free shipping, this is a super deal
Style: 209 cc
My YT4565 was a non-starter out of the box. When I pulled the rope it wouldn't even sputter. I thought I would have to return it, and was pretty disappointed. But, since I didn't want to box it back up, I followed a tutorial on FamilyHandyman-com called 'Small Engine Start Up Tips'. My neighbor was going to come over and look at it so I thought I'd give it the old college try at doing my best to start it on my own, before he got there, that way I could really utilize his expertise instead of just get basics. After doing several of the Family Handyman steps trying to figure it out, it finally fired. I think when it fired I had taken off the black plastic thing that is under the air filter. This seems to be a sort of S-shaped 'intake' for the carb. Once as per the tutorial I had sprayed WD-40 into the carb, at some point it finally fired. If you have a complete non-starter you can put WD-40 in where the spark plug goes, and it should fire. This will tell you that your plug is good, and also that the flywheel system (sorry, not too smart on small engines but am learning) is properly generating a spark. The shifter is hit and miss. You have to stay patient. Keep trying, but don't try to force it or you might break it. It's like sometimes where you want to go on the shifter isn't 'cleared' by the transmission until after several tries. Then suddenly there will be an internal thunk and it will suddenly go. I think most of the issues with it are due to the transmission itself, not the shifter design. Sometimes you can jump from Forward in Transport mode, clear over to Forward Rotating Tines on Till mode. This is the entire length of the gear options, but sometimes that is what you are wanting to do, so if you do it by luck, so be it. XD ha ha Sometimes if I was in Neutral in Transport mode, it was hard to get to Forward which is just one slot to the left. Sometimes I could do it by hitting the shifter handle slightly with the palm of my hand. But sometimes I'd jump past it. The point is to don't lose your temper and keep trying. It may take several tries but eventually you'll get to the gear you want. That said, the transmission itself seems pretty capable. And as some others have posted, *slightly* lifting the clutch (the 'drive bar' is what I'd call it) towards the handle sometimes helps it to shift. Reverse is great, I accidentally nosed the tiller into a 3 foot deep ditch at the edge of the garden while tilling, and in Reverse Transport mode it moved back up and out of it just fine. Tilling is great also. Not too hard to maneuver. You just lift up the rear tines to do a 180. You don't even need to stop them rotating if you don't want to. I am happy with this purchase. The Craftsman over at Lowe's for $300 more didn't even have forward-rotating tines as an option, which you really need if you want to till in leaves. In my view the tricky shifting is the price you pay for an otherwise solid machine, at a great price. (I got it for $560 with free shipping.) Have noticed the price has jumped considerably on here in the past few weeks, I assume due to Amazon themselves no longer selling it. (Update 2019-10-27, so about my fourth use of the tiller): Recently had the tiller stop working... it was making a squeal and the engine would rev way down, if I tried to pull the clutch lever up to the handle to get it going--it wouldn't move or do anything at all except quit. Turned out the belt was a bit loose, you tighten it by turning the sleeve up where the cable attaches to the clutch lever. You loosen the nut a little away from the sleeve, then turn the sleeve (so you seem to be tightening the individual strands of the cable even more) 'til it gets up to where the nut is. And now it works again... I love this tiller!!!

Price for POWER
Style: 209 cc
I'll just start off by saying that I live in Colorado where my soil is not necessarily the best - more like rock/sand/clay. I wanted to work on my yard sections at a time without the worry and rush of renting a piece of equipment. Got to say, setup was easy. Solid unit of destruction - fluffed my dirt up 6.5" no problem. The only thing I had a problem with at times are the concrete chunks that the new construction trades left behind in my ground. The tiller obviously found those chunks - it's not meant to break through those pieces like a hydraulic tiller can - but listen - all you do is put the tiller in it's opposite direction of what you were doing and it will just spit the concrete back out and you can throw it in a pile. Don't keep going until you choke the tiller out, that's not smart with any mechanical piece of equipment. If you want to tear through hard ground and start a new lawn like I did - you need a rear tine tiller. Live in hard soil environment? You need a rear tine tiller. Briggs motor - as much steel as possible - 2 year warranty on all parts. I'm happy. You will be too!

Spend the extra and get a real one
Style: 209 cc
Let's be clear, I wanted to like this machine, it had the features I was looking for. I had originally purchased a Cub Cadet on Amazon and when I received it the Honda engine it was advertised with was not on it. It cost about 300 more than this one and to not have that engine was a deal breaker, I returned it. After trying to resolve and find a decent tiller with a Honda engine it came down to I needed one and the reviews for this were halfway decent so I took a gamble. Bad bet, should've went with my instincts. It is a made in China low quality piece of merchandise. I have less than 25 hours of total use on it, have blown 3 inner tubes and one tire already. Wheel bends all out of shape removing tire, cheap, cheap, cheap. Have replaced throttle control, snapped right off, carburetor was replaced, typical Briggs engine problem with all their engines, hunts all over the place, the main reason I wanted a Honda engine to begin with. Every Briggs engine I have ever owned does this, not a matter of if but when. Spend a few hundred extra dollars and find one made in USA with a good Honda or Kohler engine at least, you will thank yourself later. I have already spent more on parts than the money I saved. Just not worth the time, trouble or effort. It continually keeps falling apart, the nuts, bolts all come loose, the metal is cheap, cheap, cheap. Bends and will break. It's a rototiller, needs to be heavy duty. The good points are that customer service is good, provides parts in a timely manner and the actual tiller portion and gearbox seem to be fairly decent. Only reason it gets two stars. Buyer beware, don't be cheap on this bigger ticket item. If you do decide to purchase this item replace the tires before even putting it to use, they are absolute junk and will leave you high and dry in the middle of your project. Get a good 4 ply R lug tire, put some decent tubes in them, not Chinese crap it comes with. Fair Warning!! Update 5/3/2020 It is not even 3 years old yet and now the transmission is shot. This thing wasn't even hardly used much. Very disappointing. Heed my warning.

A Rip Roaring Little Machine
Style: 209 cc
Does what it should for me. Fired up first pull, right out of the box. Ripped right through a tuf area in the side yard. Spit out rocks like a rock monster. "Hard for any tiller" . "Be sure to run in low speed in rocky ground"If a big ole rock hangs up the tines, pop it out of gear and change directions with the tines. (pick up your big ole rock) and resume your track. Needed Miner adjustments after the punishment it went through the first week. The Rev. & Fwd. without tines turning; is truly a blessing to have also. I Like it, so far so good If you get one; may I bid you "Happy Tilling" GET ER DONE!

Awesome machine

I like everything about this tiller. Starts on the first pull every time, love the fact it has counter rotating tines when the ground is really hard it doesn’t try to take off on you. This will be my 3rd season with it and I have experienced 0 issues

Probably not the machine for those who can't turn a wrench
Style: 209 cc
Package arrived in good condition and on time. If you are not mechanically inclined I would suggest you avoid this product. Out of the box the belt tensioner would not disengage the drive or tines upon release of the handle. Upon inspection tensioner pulley bracket was bent and rubbing the housing preventing it from disengaging. The tensioner cable bracket was also loose allowing the belt to slip. After fixing these issues tiller works as it should.
