 Troybilt Pro-Line FRT May 10, 2009
By T. Young
I received the tiller in timely fashion, assembled it easily and was amazed when the Honda engine fired on the first pull. When the transmission is disengaged it is easy to roll back and forth to the garden.
I had previously had my new garden plot broken up, but a few passes back and forth had it looking like a powder puff...smooth, no clods, and really ready for planting.
All in all, I am pleased with my choice of tiller, even though it was a bit more expensive than some others I could have bought.

Satisfied Customer May 02, 2011
By Luke MacDonald
Pros:
1.) Honda GX engine lives up to the hype. Very easy to start, quiet, and fuel efficient.
2.) Tills already cultivated soil into fine powder.
3.) Reverse option is a great feature.
4.) Perfect size for fitting between rows, but still big enough to tackle large jobs.
Cons:
1.) A bit too light for easily busting new sod (but I knew that before I bought it). Just a word of warning. It can be done, but takes time.

This teller is a 12" forward rotating tine. The machine is a superb rototiller that doesn't need to much more than a modest engine speed to accomplish a job. .the Honda motor is nice adaption and works as well as any Briggs and Stratton design.
Be advise to follow the proper procedure with tilling as trying to do too much at one pass will cause you to loose control, albeit once you have started correctly this machine prepares the ground fabulously and justifies it elevated price.
I suggest while assembling to apply anti-seize to bolts that you will disassemble in the future for ease but this is your choice as the manufacture does not suggest this.

 Runs fine, leaks transmission oil Sep 09, 2011
By Gary
Tiller assembly was easy, Honda engine started first pull. Had to adjust belt tightener items on both belts to prevent squealing and to keep reverse belt from coming off idler. The major issue is that the transmission leaks like a sieve out the front shaft seal. Not sure the factory even installed the seal. Will take it to an authorized shop to repair this under warranty later in the gardening season. I suspected something like this as the transmission was very low on oil at delivery. Probably leaked out during storage and shipment. Not counting this seal, the tiller is exactly as I expected.
Troy-Built Pro-Line FRT tiller, Honda engine Feb 12, 2012
By drmike54
I just received my tiller which was ordered on January 8. The delivery company sent the same guys that had come before to deliver a chair and were very nice, but the delivery company kept trying over and over to deliver on a day that I could not be home. The machine was fine, although the shipping box was in pretty bad shape. It had a heavy layer of dust on the machine and box, indicating to me it had been in storage for an undetermined time. The only component to assemble is the handle bar assembly, which was uneventful. Upon the addition of the enclosed engine oil, and of course gasoline, the tiller started after 2 or 3 easy pulls on the starter cord. The transmission was full of lubricant, unlike some of the other reviews I have read. I only took 8 passes through the garden since it was below freezing the day it arrived, but I will say it easily passed through clods and rocks leaving almost powder in its wake. I have not tried to break sod yet and the only complaint I have is that there is no throttle control on the handles. I fully expect to be further delighted with this tiller when the growing season arrives.
