This machine works fairly well but the saw blade that comes with it is very weak. I dropped mine and it bent falling from 2 feet. The instruction manual that came with the kit is missing, it's 3 pages long, has no pictures and doesn't list all the parts in the kit, and there's only one feature that says about using the right part for the job, and it doesn't say what for every part is. used but it works like a drill hole and the hoe attachment works fine. Mine came and part of it wasn't slotted. Some of the slices that were supposed to be in the tube were all over the place, but I plan on keeping it for now.
