Lawn Lad is an unknown quantity at this point
We bought a Dingo 222 back in 1997. I absolutely love the machine. I think my payments at the time were around $450.00 a month for four or five years. That machine gave me cabilities that I didn't have before. People laughed since I was one of the first in the Cleveland area to buy one. Now they ask to borrow/rent it.

I'm in the market for some used implements since I don't need to pay $3,000 plus for a trencher or auger unit that we'll only use on occasion. But buying them used might be worth it to have them around in case - might find more uses for the machine. I am going to demo the soil cultivator for lawn seeding jobs.

We work in the suburbs where the homes are generally no younger than 60 years old and approaching 100 years in some cases. So we do very little installation for new houses. Most of our renovation or installation work is on existing homes where removing and replacing, or renovation/augmentation is the order of business.

Does anyone have the soil cultivator? What do you think of it and has it proved successful for you? In what situations does it not work - relative to expectations.
