I've had my 1303 for a couple years now. It doesn't have the guage wheels so if I don't control the depth it will try and either dig back to Japan or bog down my 770 to where I'll just lift it a little and keep going. It's a been a tremendous value vs buying any of the new tillers out there. A couple of the people whose gardens I till also have told me that they think it tills nicer than another guy's much more expensive tiller. I also find that I can till in wetter soil than the guys with the "L" shaped tiller tines. For instance I did a big garden tonight that probably could have used another day of drying, but the 1303 just churned right through it. The property owner was pretty impressed and I must admit I was a little suprised how well it did myself.
