Description: Attaches quickly and easily to all Mantis tillers. Includes rubber tire wheel and a sharp steel slicer blade. Cuts neat, crisp edges where your flower beds meet the lawn. Lowest New Price: $44.95 Reviews:Does what it says.I recently purchased the Mantis Tiller Border Edger and to those who said this is not worth the money I disagree. It does what it says it does, make a border and works as an edger. However if you want to make a straight edge that is deeper and cuts through the weeds replace the cutter wheel with the regular blade and leave the wheel on and follow the edge you cut first you will get a nice straight line with the weeds dug up. So all I can say is that it worked for me.
Border Edger is not a Lawn EdgerThis border edger is not intended to be a lawn edger. Please make sure you are buying the correct tool for the job. This attachment does a wonderful job of cutting a border between your lawn and landscaping. I also use it to make that "first cut" on the lawn edging to dig out the dirt that accumulates over the winter so I can use my trimmer to edge the yard. The blade does not spin fast enough to actually cut grass/weeds in your lawn edging along sidewalks etc... SatisfactionThis tiller was a great surprise to me. Having a small area, I thought It would be OK, However it passed my expectations in what it has done.
Horrible edgerI am on Amazon shopping for a real edger after using this piece of garbage. Border edger is junkThe Mantis tiller is a fine machine, but the edger attatchment blade is poorly made. I've used it to edge behind the curb in my front yard to keep the grass from growing over the curb. The blades become bent and then the tiller will "bounce" or buck up into the air. You have to turn the Mantis off and take a pair of vise grips to straighten the blades back into alignment. Repeat this process several times and the tips of the blades break off. This attachment is a real disappointment. Not worth the trouble. |
