Rotovator purchase advice

beer enigma · 2009-10-30 15:17:37

I have an area at the end of my garden - 50ft x 50ft that I use solely for vegetables etc & after a couple of years heavy digging have decided to invest in a rotovator. Trouble is, I have no idea what to look for - size, power etc & just wondered if anyone has any advice ? cheers Andi

I use a mantis tiller on a plot of a comparable size.

It's light weight and easy to use.

It's got a 25cc honda engine, so a reasonable amount of power.
