Rank #10 in Best Rotavators 2026: 10 Ranked, and Two Claims That Don't Add Up
POLLOR 52cc Petrol Tiller, 30cm Width
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The POLLOR PLPTIL01 is a 52cc two-stroke petrol rotavator with a 30cm working width and a listed cultivating depth of 15–20cm. It comes tenth in this guide at £119.99, rated 4.5 out of 5 from 17 ratings.
The finding attached to this entry is not about the machine itself. The same 52cc POLLOR tiller — same 30cm working width, same 15–20cm cultivating depth — appears twice in this guide, once at £119.99 and once at £109.99, which makes this listing the more expensive of the two. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing and the reviews shown on it, not from any test of our own.
