## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is horse power rating of motor**
A: There's an easy way to calculate the power of an electrical motor. First you multiply the volts times the amps to find the total power in watts, in this case 120 volts times 13.5 amps equals 1,620 watts. Next, you figure in an average 85% efficiency for electric motors to get 1,377 watts. (It's fair to assume this low-cost AC appliance uses a typical AC induction motor which is probably more like 80% efficiency, and the manufacturer doesn't claim anything better, but let's give them the benefit of the doubt since there are some electric motors that exceed 95% efficiency.) Then, you consider that you'll always be using this while plugged into an extension cord. Let's say it's the typical $30 14 gauge, 50 foot cord that's common (but be aware that longer or shorter cords, or higher or lower wire gauge, will change this) and factor in another 3% drop in power, so you have  1,335 watts at the machine.Now, 1335 watts is about 1.8 horsepower. If you're comparing this to the popular Mantis 16 inch tiller, with a 4-stroke Honda GX35 gas engine, that has 1.3HP at 7,000rpm. So on paper, this is 38% more powerful, but there are lots of other differences. It has a very different tine shape, but of course caring for a gas engine and getting virtually unlimited portability, vs. a maintenance-free electrical motor while tied to a power cord, are also big differences. TL,DR: This is more powerful in most cases than its gas competitors, and that's important but it's not the only consideration.

**Q: has anyone compared the 12 amp model to the 13.5 amp one? is it worth spending the extra money to get the 13.5 amp tiller?**
A: Our soil here in Montana has a lot of clay and turns rock hard when dry.  I have the 13.5 but to keep it from dancing all over the place I put a fifty pound lead weight on it to hold it down.  With the extra weight it does a great job

**Q: Is 13.5 amps too much for a 15 amp circuit?**
A: You will be fine on a 15A circuit.  Recommendations from the manufacturer are 14/3 (14gauge 3conductor) extension cord for up to 50ft and 12/3 extension cord for up to 100ft.  Total length should not exceed 100ft however I'm sure a 10/3 extension cord would be fine for more than 100ft but a 10/3 extension cord would be very expensive.  Please be aware that the tiller pulls the most current with the tines are digging deep in the soil and the motor is bogging down and under extreme strain it's possible it might pop the breaker on a 15A circuit.

**Q: Can tines be removed for narrower tilling area?**
A: yes, but...the tines are an assembly of 3 held to the shaft with a through bolt.  If you removed one assembly you could till with just one side, but the tiller is still over a foot wide and the empty shaft is still sticking out even without the tines.  this is a powerful machine, I would look at a lighter, narrower tiller if you want to do a more narrow area.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Product - Excellent Customer Service
*by B***B on April 19, 2025*

Wonderful machine and the company and it's distributors stand behind their product and offer excellent customer service. Over the years I have purchased a couple Sun Joe products and have always been happy with them, so when I needed a new tiller, I went with Sun Joe and I'm glad I did. This machine has a lot of power, yet is not unmanageable. It has various settings to allow you to dig deep into the soil, or just scrape the surface for things like seeding. I was using the tiller on the deepest setting to dig a vegetable garden from scratch. The tiller dug deep down on the first pass and totally turned the turf, mulching it up as I went. Then "BOOM", I hit a rock, and then another one, in all honesty, the tiller took a pretty significant beating but kept on working. Apparently however, the beating took it's toll, and eventually, the tiller assembly sheared off. Again, it took a beating before getting to that point. I notified the distributor SpreeTail through Amazon and they were extremely responsive. I admitted to them that I had hit some rocks, but they didn't seem to care. They immediately started the process for me to return the tiller free of charge and they replaced it with a brand new one. In all honesty, I think my tiller endured more than the normal wear and tear covered by the warranty, but within a week of sending it back, I had a brand new tiller. I will be much more careful with this one, starting at a lesser depth so that I am not surprised by big rocks buried deep underground that the blade encounters full on. Bottom line, I recommend this tiller and Sun Joe products without hesitation. This thing is a power house and gets the job done... Just be more careful than I was and should have been.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tiller is worth the money especially if you can get a discount on it
*by K***E on September 7, 2025*

Wasn't sure what to expect after reading the positive and negative reviews but once I received this tiller, it worked really well. I was able to completely till my entire 1200 sq. ft front yard with no issues and pretty quickly. The tilling action worked well going forward but worked even better if you walked backwards with it. I will say you have to keep a firm grip on it as can get away from you but thankfully has an automatic shut off if the button is released. This tiller had no problem in my GA soil type which was pretty compacted. Noise level wasn't too bad and it was pretty easy assembly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s worth it!
*by A***N on July 16, 2025*

It’s powerful and cut right through the dirt. I was pretty surprised that it was better than most gas operated tillers. Obviously the only reason for four stars is that there isn’t any really cord management and you have to watch your cord like a hawk to make sure you don’t go over it. Otherwise, the tiller works great!
