Recommendations
Before buying a cultivator, you should first decide on the expected list of works and their complexity. It makes no sense to overpay if soft soil is to be cultivated. However, overloading low-power equipment on complex soils is also not worth it.
The most pressing moment for gasoline versions is the quality of the power unit. Low volume motors should run at high speeds. Without proper cooling and quality of the material of the cylinder head, such engines quickly wear out, so when choosing a cheap model, pay attention to the type of power plant with the possibility of buying spare parts on the market.
