Pays for itself first use. I was surprised how easy it was to drill a 10 inch hole. It is just like butter, once in a while it will pull you over if you are not holding on, but this thing works similar to a two man auger. My 6 month fence just blew down with this CA rain storm and high winds. The reason it blew down is because I didn't dig it deep enough. No problem, I am 4.5 feet down with an extension, easy as pie, 7 holes in 10 minutes. Would have taken me days to dig those. Had the mix a little strong on oil side, just added straight gas to the tank and problem resolved very easily. 30 to 1 is already heavy on the oil side, that is what they recommend. When you start it, the bottom doesn't spin at idle, good. You have to press the gas to get it spinning, and starts slow. Just digs a hole so fast and easy, I can't believe I didn't get it before.I saw where a different machine broke at the neck, I don't even see how that can happen with this machine.Con, it is a little heavy. I would say when you are deep and 10 inches, it has to be about 100 pounds. I would bet that is necessary though.Update: I have used this too many times to count over many years now, still 5 star. Every once in a while I put oil mix wrong and it is hard to start, just add straight gas comes right around.

Drilled through Texas clay and rock like butter. I had to drill 55 30" holes to put up a new fence.The tough part is that I had to do it mid summer in north Texas when the clay us as hard as concrete. Engine started up right away each time. The 8" Auger bit was great and cut through roots and rock great. The oil ratio is a bit funky but it us 20ml of oil goes into the 20oz bottle provided. Go slow and brace yourself. This machine is very powerful, I avoided revving it too high because the one time I did it jerked my shoulder bad. Also if you go too quickly in clay, the auger bit's heat and blade can actually glaze the clay at the bottom of the whole and cause it to just glide on the surface. I just took a breaker bar and chopped up the surface a bit and the auger did a fine job.i wanted to test how much faster this auger would've than hand digging. It took me nearly 1 hour to dig 1 hole with a manual post digger, with this beast it to 90 seconds (if no roots or rocks where encountered). Love this machine. Great investment

This unit is exactly what I was looking for. Simple to start up right out of the box! And let me tell you what, middle Tennessee clay and rocky ground (small rocks) didn't stop this machine. Well, it may have stopped the drill bit, but not the machine! BE CAREFUL! This little thing has some serious power and torque. Hit a root or large rock and the bit will stop spinning, but not the top of the unit, it will continue to spin and yank you around like a rag doll!! Very powerful for 55cc!! Works wonderfully, just be careful! 48 post holes, 2.5' deep in one day - not bad for an old man.The reason for the 4 stars is that my unit arrived with a crack in the trigger unit; the trigger assembly is plastic. I did notify the company and they immediately shipped me out a new handle, but the damaged product that arrived delayed my pasture extension by one week. Sheep weren't too happy so they get the other star :)All in all this is a great unit that met and exceeded my expectations for the task I bought it for. Great machine for the money!

The previous reviews of this auger are correct. The company is a Stark auger not an ExtremePower auger, it has plenty of power, starts easily, and use a 6" bit. The manual is terrible, the start/run sticker is on backwards, very easy to assemble, and very little fuel usage. I've used it regularly for almost two months for digging post holes and some yard things. The auger itself is really good. You'll need a manual post hole digger with this as well to get the dirt out of the drilled hole as the bits I've used only remove about 1/2 the soil it has drilled through.Before you buy... Think really hard about how big of hole you want to dig. I'm putting in 4"x4" posts and thought an 8 inch bit would be good. I'm 6'0", 245lbs, and not an ounce of fat...ok, maybe a tad bit of fat. I started it up, got a firm grip, started drilling and hit a rock and was promptly swung around like a daddy swinging his daughter around at the park. Don't let the size fool you, this thing has power, and if you hit a big rock or really rough spot you spin unless you have a good grip and good footing.... if the bit stops in the ground the auger continues rotating with you taking the brunt of it. I realized really fast that an 8" bit was way too big. I just don't see anyone being able to use a 12" unless you're drilling into soft sand or goose down or use two people. I went to a local store and got he 6" bit and it works great and if I need a bigger hole I just use a manual tool to spread the edge of the hole a bit. You can still get two bags of cement into a 6" hole. with you post.

This product is a very high powered auger, it starts well, runs ok and if rock free will drill a clean hole rapidly. Shame it doesn't have extended handles for 2 operators as it has quite a kick when the bit stops and the head doesn't. It is advertised as coming complete with 6", 8" and 12" auger. Mine arrived with none, eventually an 8" bit turned up long after the job I needed it for. Good luck adding gear oil as there is no type, grade, quantity or instruction on how to. The toolkit does not fit the fill port. Whomever translated the instructions into English needs to be on stage.
