Customer Reviews for VEVOR Post Hole Digger Gas Powered, 52CC 1450W Earth Auger, Gas Auger with 200mm Auger Drill Action Design Bits & 1 Extension Rod, Post Fence Hole Digger for Farmland Garden Plant, Orange+Black

Surprisingly good as a post hole digger. I used it to dig holes to plant trees and I was suspect that it would work well. It worked well, indeed, very well! Though I used it in somewhat looser soil (forest), it was easy to start, use, and handle.

It worked right out of the box. I had to buy a set of extensions for the bit but I figure that. As for easy to use I would say yes but I'm 70 yrs old and the first couple of holes kick my a##. But after I got a handle on how to use it it was all good. I used it to set poles for a Solar set up it sure was better than that post hole digger. I would recommend it.

Can’t beat the price, works fantastic as expected. I do wish I had a few more auger bits in different sizes other than, it starts well, it doesn’t leak when stored.

This thing starts so easily. I couldn't believe it. If you sharpen the auger at bottom and keep the sod off of it where it builds up, it does great. A reverse feature would be nice.

Finally got a chance to use this a couple of weeks ago. Works as advertised. Chewed through clay soil like butter. It struggled with the hard pack, but honestly, nothing I've tried works well in the hard pack we have (think concrete's cousin). I did have some issues with the on/off switch that I'll have to resolve but to be fair I didn't read the instructions well enough and put the throttle/switch on wrong the first time and it could be that to caused the issue. I just choked it to stop the engine the one day I used it and I'm sure I can correct the issue when I have time. For the money, this can't be beat.

It does what I bought it for and it seems very well made. The price is the best part as it is cheap but works the way it should!

I just finished using this to drill 24 post holes for a fence I'm building. Drills an 18" hole in less than a minute. Very easy to start and operate. It will bust through small roots and bring up small rocks, smaller than a fist, just need to go a little slower and feather the throttle a little. No reverse so you need to lift it out of hole to clear the auger. I will be using to plant some fruit trees in the near future. This is definitely a best buy!

Bought instead of renting. It fired up on the second pull and ran flawlessly for 20 holes. Auger is cheap but works. It has straight angled blade instead of higher end teeth. Recoil broke on 5th start but Vevor has an annoying warranty process that wants pictures but not in a format any phone uses. The recoil won't retract. Why do you need a picture. Anyways, it was still worth the money.

I bought this auger because of the reviews and price. I received it very fast in the mail. I put it together, handles and spindle, in no time. I added the 2 cycle oil to the gas as directed and it started within 3 pulls. This is going to be great for pole holes as we have very hard and rocky ground. It's going to beat using the manual pole hole digger and shovel. So far I'm very happy with this auger and do recommend it.

Bought this auger for a project to plant 25 trees. Dug the 25 holes in a little over 30 mins. We have rocky soil and as long as the rocks aren't too big this auger just throws them aside. It does a good job on small roots too! A rental for 1 day is just a little below the whole cost of this auger and we have used it many times since purchase. Starts easy runs good just get a good grip and be prepared if it hits something solid. I would recommend this if you have some holes to did.
