Power tillers: HM tests five machines that take the dirty work out of digging
Article Abstract:
The Mantis Tiller/Cultivator ($299), Hoffco Li'l Hoe ($274), Husqvarna T255R ($649), Ariens RTT4018 ($1,069), and Honda FR800 ($1,649) are tested and compared. All the tillers have their good points. The Honda provides the most power, but the Mantis and Hoffco are adequate for most gardens.

Easy trimmers: HM tests four hard-working gas-powered machines with a decidedly light touch
Article Abstract:
Four gas-powered grass and weed trimmers, the Weed Eater Featherlite ($75), Homelite Z725CE ($170), Echo SRM-2110 ($270), and Husqvarna 225RJ ($320), are tested and compared. All have good features, but the Homelite might be the best choice for small areas, and the Echo for large areas.
