Now that lithium battery powered drills are readily available this product is ideal as it requires a torque drill. I use it to quickly plant new plants in my garden. Not only is it great for digging a hole, it also tills the soil and aerates the planting area. I would recommend this as a must have tool for any gardener as it brought back a lot of fun with plant selection and planting. Even if you like perennials, this is ideal since you'll repot them every spring (or whenever the growing season comes around). Definitely worth your money.
