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

Not sure how someone thought this worked well in hard soil. My soil must be like concrete then. After about 5 or 6 inches, the unit would bog down and I would have to remove it and try again. Maybe it’s because it’s got the 8” auger and not the 6”. The weight of this one person machine is as heavy as some 2 persons machines that I have used. But, as someone mentioned, that weight probably helps bore the hole and it might in “normal” soil, but not in my hard pan.

Very hard starting. Works as it should after you're able to get it started.

Bought about a month ago, used it for digging holes for 4x4 fence post. Worked well enough except if you hit roots or of course rocks. The reason i gave it a 3 star is the gas trigger has never worked from day one. But it was worth the money and it performed well enough.

I purchased the 52cc auger. It worked great for a few holes. However the plastic sheathing holding the wires and throttle cable got caught on the 10” bit and broke. Obviously this was my mistake as I should have used the zip ties and fastened the tubing down to the handle bars. I went off pictures of the completed tool online and noticed zip ties were not used as the tubing and wires just hung freely. Lesson learned the hard way. I was able to repair the black and red wires, not sure how long they’ll last. It would be nice if Vevor sold a throttle cable and wire assembly separate. Now I’m stuck looking for an off brand throttle cable. The end of the cable that connects to the engine, broke off so now the cable has no way of staying in the slot on the engine.

Does it drill holes? Yes. The only issue I have is that you should never lay it down on its side while running because air bubbles will get pulled through the fuel pick up line, regardless of having a full tank, causing the motor to run away and turning the auger into the world's most dangerous Skip-It. Even when standing straight up at times, if a bubble runs through, the throttle gets a mind of its own and it'll rev up and spin out of control.

Its ok as long as you dont hit roots or rocks. Got it stuck in clay and took 2 hours of digging to get it out

Très difficile à mettre en route ..(air dans le circuit carburateur).. mais quand elle démarre, on peut faire du beau travail !

Works great if the throttle cable was adjusted properly. Would only recommend this if you’re handy and can maintain it

Haven't received my order yet , said it would be delivered in a couple days until I purchased and now it's just stuck at ups saying shipping label created , been almost 2 weeks

I ordered the posthold digger and it came box all damage and missing parts. It took him over a month to send the parts and 20 emails. Not understanding, I just needed nuts and bolts. The machine works great, but customer service did not help me to the point where I was frustrated. Just for nuts and bolts, I sent pictures after pictures and emails after emails. And whoever was helping me didn't understand or don't speak English, I don't think I would order again. When you have to talk to customer service via email, it's a headache and not worth it. This company does not have a phone number and will waste your time. So if you buy something from them, get ready for a headache, if something's wrong.
