Good Afternoon, I am looking for the best option for a tiller, I understand this will very from person to person.

The tillers I have found so far in my area is as follows:

Note: All options are in Clean, well running/operational condition.

-A used BCS 716 with 18” tiller. 6.5 hp. 18” tiller. $1650

-A used Cub cadet rotor tiller 6 hp $475

-A used Troy Built Tiller for sale Troy Built Tiller Horse. 5 hp B/S motor. $600.00

V/r,

Just look at the tines, they will tell the entire story.
Yes, and how well it starts and feels in YOUR hands. Is it cumbersome and vibrates?

I find rear tine easier to operate especially in hard soil.

Dont waste your money on a front tine tiller, I have a troy built horse and is is a very good tiller . I dont use it anymore because i have 2 tractor tillers.

I've seen some fugly tillers that went for way too much. Tines tell the story, always.

I believe any of the 3 should be fine. It also depends on how much tilling activity you plan on doing. How much tilling and what type of soil?

Get yourself one of the old TroyBilt Horse tillers. the ones that look like this. They till up hard soil and are virtually indestructible. I have one I bought about 20 years ago and it still starts. You can get them for under $500 and pass them down to your kids.

Troybilt horse models are hardly indestructible! We went through one and had to buy a second before I gave up and bought a tiller for my tractor. I've seen MANY leaky and blown Troys!

To the OP, buy the BCS!!! You can thank me later...
