Necessary Feb 18, 2010 My original purchase of the Mantis tiller did not include this product. I spent quite a bit of time pulling grass and weeds out of the tiller. This product is indispensible. Very necessary. Works great. I no longer have to stop tilling to clean the tiller before continuing my work.
This item and the detangler should be included items. Dec 21, 2009 One would think that this product would be something that comes included in the packaging of the Mantis Tiller itself along with the detangler. It's like buying a new car and paying extra for the windshield wipers...

Not as helpful as I had hoped... Jun 29, 2009 I still have to remove the tines to clean out the weeds. Pricey for two plastic cylinders!

a must have Apr 27, 2009 This product is a must have for the electric mantis tiller. These weed reducers should come with the tiller but since they don't, you should purchase. It makes cleaning roots out of the tines much easier.

Necessary 'accessory' Mar 18, 2009 These reducers really work. Apparently the tangling of weeds and small roots in the area covered by these things is what causes enough strain on the electric motor to cause it to stall and the reset button to pop out. That won't happen if you install these things - at least mine has not stalled out since I put them on. I would not recommend using an electric Mantis tiller without these things. And don't use your electric tiller for long periods of time (15+ minutes) - set it up in the shade or in the wind on the kickstand and handles to let the motor cool down. Overheating is never good for an electric motor.
