    I received mine a few days ago. Was heavier than expected but that seems to be due to the ruggedness of the lower end including the motor. Need to fully loosen the knob holding the lower handle in place before trying to rotate it as it has ratchet type bumps that hold it in place, not just friction fit. Tried it on my recently planted vegetable garden. Easy to use & control & quite fast. I really liked the job it did of quickly fine tilling the ground near the plants to let water soak in. Also tilled general garden ares to get rid of the many small weeds that had become to sprout. Very happy with it. Time will tell if it last but my bet is that it will be good for a few years.

    KNOW BEFORE TOU BUY, AMAZON WILL NOT ACCEPT A RETURN ON THIS ITEM. Even though it is not useful at all. Not sure what other people are doing with it, but it barely mixes up loose soil, much less actually tills the ground.

    You'd be better off taking your kitchen hand mixer to break up soil than this thing.

    I have a 25$ hand tiller that works better. Now I have an expensive grass comber and the company cares not because they have their money and 鶹 is even less good than temu, shein or wish, but double the price. They are outsourcing sales to the same companies you find on the other sites, but with major markups.

    Don't buy this. And shop the cheaper sites. They have better return policies as well.

    1.0 out of 5 stars So underpowered it is nearly useless for ther intended purpose
    Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2025
    Verified Purchase
    I bought this product "Sun Joe TJ599E Electric Garden Cultivator, 6.3-inch, 2.5-Amp, Adjustable Shaft" to perform small-scale tilling operations on my three small raised gardens, hoping that its small size and light weight would make it easier to perform the tasks of soil-loosening (tilling) and the mixing in of compost and mulch. The majority of reviews I read on 鶹 made me think that this product could do the job, however I was still mindful of those other reviews that stated the product had insufficient power.

    The product was apparently shipped directly from the seller (Spreetail), not from 鶹's own warehouse. As it happened, it arrived by FedEx just as I had finished spreading a couple inches of peat moss across the tops of the three gardens, on top of the first few inches of garden soil that I had already loosened with a garden spade.

    I inspected the product, read the few pages of the manual that were in English (unusually, they were fairly well written in clear English). I adjusted the handle and the telescoping 'boom' or shaft, and connected the power cord. The trigger requires that the user press an 'unlock' safety button, which I did, and the product's motor ran and the 'tines' rotated as expected.

    But when I lowered the tine head to contact the top of the peat moss/soil, the tines immediately stopped, although the sound and pitch of the motor did not change perceptibly, as if a clutch had been released. I raised the head a few inches and the tines resumed rotation. I worked for perhaps five minutes, experimenting with how much down pressure could be applied and how deep the tines could be in the loose soil before they would stop, and the answer was that I could have stopped them by holding a pencil in their way. They essentially had enough power to rotate in the air, but not enough power to do anything useful.

    I called the "contact us" phone number listed on the user's manual, and was rewarded with 20+ minutes of loud, raucous 'music' before somebody came on the line. She seemed to have no actual knowledge of the product, and seemed to just be looking things up. After I described the problem, she seemed nonplussed (unperturbed), as if people call about this problem all the time. She suggested that I could have them send me a replacement unit, or return it to 鶹. By this, I concluded that they are quite aware of this issue. Nothing was offered in regard to applicability of the product to my application, which I had described to here.

    So, I initiated a return/refund request through 鶹, but had to send the unit back to the seller rather than to 鶹.

    Besides the product not working adequately, I can offer the following observations:

    - The plastic parts are cheaply made and had mold-flashing along the edges; one rarely sees such roughly made plastic parts these days.
    - From the sound made when I rotated the times by hand (easily done, by the way, and with the power cord disconnected), it seems that a set of gears (probably plastic ones) connect between the electric motor and the tines' shaft.
    - The telescoping handle worked adequately and did not slip back under use that way that some other reviewers have reported.
    - The left-hand handle (the other handle, with the trigger, is clearly designed to he held by the right hand) has a cheap and roughly designed angle adjustment. A knurled knob needs to be backed WAY off, and then the handle tugged forcefully into a new position before re-tightening the knurled knob.
    - The tines are only something like 2~3 inches long, so (power aside) this product can't be used to till deeply.
    - This product is variously referred to as 'tiller' and a 'cultivator'; those terms don't mean the same thing, and the design of the product makes 'tiller' the more appropriate name. The user COULD pull the tines between rows of plants to do some 'cultivating' (removal of weeds), but the description of the product's operation in the manual seems to be more about 'tilling'. In order to 'till', this product would need to have a much more robust drivetrain, even in shallow soil that is free of heavy clay and such.

    So far great garden tool have used for two large garden beds - way better than pulling weeds by hand. Read the instructions before use and you shouldn't have any issues. Came in a timely fashion and no assembly was required. Not too heavy and easy to use. Only had to shut down once and pull a few tangled weed roots from the rotor. Happy with it!!

    Just used it today. Rain finally stopped. I am pleased with this tiller. Need to be careful with the extension cord. I had been working with a battery operated tiller. This tiller has more power than battery operated tillers.
