Sun Joe TJ604E tiller / cultivator review | Best electric tiller / cultivator

You can find the Sun Joe TJ604E here: amzn.to/2U9QJc0
I recently purchased a Sun joe TJ604E tiller cultivator and took it out for a spin today. I wanted to see if the Sun Joe would be a good choice for homeowners who do not have a large area to till. The Sun Joe TJ604E is a great choice for people who want a stand alone machine but do not want to spend a lot of money for a gas powered unit. The Sun Joe is a plug in electric tiller but the power was more than enough to handle the challenges I put it up to.

your music is way, way too loud couldn't hear you talking

[@hopalongjohnny9797]

Bought this during this years summer, my advice is to water the ground a couple of days before using. It literally was jumping about 6” into the air when I went across the ground because it was so hard 😂. Other than that it’s fine for small jobs.

Thanks for doing this. I just bought one from Menards

[@mn_lawn_therapy_3346]

Great review, love the shirt! Was looking into one of these for our gardens. Made my decision easier. Looks like a good machine!

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

I think if you have similar needs to me its perfect! Thanks for watching.

[@user-lz6dm5lk9y]

Your soil looks well worked already---no rocks or anything else that interferes with the tiller. What about soil that is not already well worked and has stones and rocks and is hard and compacted? This machine does not seem powerful enough to cut through that type of soil. How far down can this tiller go? Can it till down to 2 ft?

[@delt19]

Fact: all Schrute boys were given a tiller for their fifth birthday present.

[@gregkisinger4183]

I've been after a Mantis tiller for ages but it is always out of stock but this Sun Joe tiller looks like it did a great job and for the price, you can't go wrong. Thanks for the demonstration!

[@Reddylion]

Lol

[@DamarisBruno]

I want to use mine but I don't know what's the right extension cord for this. please help!!!!!!!!!

[@vijeshnaik7371]

Parts are not available, my liner helix is broken and they discontinued manufacturing that part

[@ShortCutLawn]

Love the ending 😎👍🏼....that’s surprisingly powerful, works like my Mantis without the loud engine noise.

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

Thank you sir! I was really pretty happy with how well it did! And no loud engine noise is certainly a plus.

Thinking of getting one of these for my small garden. We have one of their lawn mowers and it's been great.

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

You'll be happy with it.

[@melissagalindo4165]

Thank you for instruct on wheels the manual isn't very detailed

[@jamesclark5625]

I renovated 2500 sq./ ft. of turf using the tiller then removed all stones bricks and weeds from the property. Turned out amazing!

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

Awesome! Yeah this thing is perfect for smaller jobs like that but maybe not really large ones. Thanks for watching!

[@jamesclark5625]

Yeah o problem buddy! Got my gm 1000 ready for 2020! Ready to go 1" and below! 😁

[@JimmyLewisMows]

I never use the middle position either... 🙃

[@andyslawncareandoutdooradv]

It would be interesting to see how it would do on really dense clay soil in Illinois. That would be an excellent test

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

It may struggle a little with heavy clay soil.

[@MrTackleberry79]

"Music" killed the whole thing. Lame.

[@TheGreenerLawn]

What type of shenanigans do you got going on at the beginning of this video?!? All these fancy electric devices... wow! Looks to have pretty decent power, great stuff! Boys will be boys at the end .... when adult kids get in the lawn.

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

Welcome back greener lawn! I'm actually a pretty big fan of it. It worked well for my small area.

[@bob1947essex]

For the price point that thing works pretty well.

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

That's exactly what I thought! Now I can put it away for the year and I own it for the cost of renting a gas one.

[@PacificNorthwestLawns]

@@Brettsgrasscapades that's exactly why I bought their dethatcher last fall. Use it twice and it's paid for itself.

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

@@PacificNorthwestLawns exactly. If you don't need a professional machine because of a small lawn it makes total sense!

[@84goat28]

Do I need to water the a couple days before I use this? I have weeds and want to replant new plants. Thanks

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

It's up to you but that would probably help make the ground softer.

I like the slow-mo action.

[@LawnJourneys]

Does the job. Good to use in new flower beds or smaller gardens. I like it! I started with some Ego Lawn tools in 2020, will share those in a few weeks on my channel. Gas engines are great but sometimes overkill for the job and more maintenance.

[@Brettsgrasscapades]

I thought about getting the ego attachment since I've got the system already but at $175 it was more than I wanted to spend on a tool I won't use often.

[@LawnJourneys]

Brett's Grasscapades Agree, you made the right move for something used less frequently. I have the 580 blower and just picked up the edger. These I’ll use weekly. I’ll do a review of each this season. Stay well!
