Tools and Hardware Reviews of Yard Butler REA-4 Roto Auger 18-Inch Long 1-1/4-Inch Diameter

Customer Review: 18-Inch Auger does the job.
Summary: 5 Stars

Yard Butler Roto Auger 18-Inch Long 1.25-Inch Diameter #REA-4 Great for easily digging just the right size holes for inserting tree fertilizer spikes. Be Careful, to NO fault of the tool, if the tool encounters hard clay or rocks, the electric drill will twist quickly. You should hold the drill with both hands to prevent wrist injury.

Customer Review: Not up to standards!
Summary: 2 Stars

The 30 inch auger -

It was quite a surprise to get the auger and find it
wasn't grooved to stop slipping in the drill chuck.
I also noticed there was no warranty to cover untempered
cheap metal. I work from a wheelchair and it is hard to
pick up when it falls out of the chuck.
Hope this helps someone.

Billy Mays Augers are way out front compared to Yard Butler

Customer Review: Needs a design change
Summary: 3 Stars

This bit will require you to grind a couple of sides FLAT before it will hold in your drill without slipping. You should use caution in rocky soil or area of roots. It is great to loosen the soil for planting of bulbs, it could do a better job of removing the dirt as you drill but look at the price. It is handy, and easy to use once you modify it.

Customer Review: Quality?
Summary: 3 Stars

Auger works fine, however, the quality is poor compared to previous ones I have or have owned. The guage of the auger is about half what I have been accustomed to in previous augers. Unfortunately, there is very little choice in the market and if you want it you have to buy it. Typical "made overseas" quality.
