It depends on how your using it. For medium to large gardens and ground breaking, use a self propelled rear tine tiller. A reverse gear is a must, rear tine tillers are quite heavy and you can hurt your back trying to pull it back when in tilled soil. For light tilling and cultivating in flowerbeds, used a mid or front tine tiller, they are small and very easy to manuever because of their size. The downside of rear tine tillers is their size and cost, they are very large and cost anywhere from $400 to $3000. The downsides of mid or front tine tillers is they are very difficult to manuever if you are not paticulary strong or have a bad back, they will jump if they hit a rock, are not very powerful, and often lack safety shields around the tines, they also cannot till very deeply in hard soil. They cost anywhere from $100 for string trimmer mounted models to $200 or $300 for self contained mid or front tine tillers. I have a troy-bilt Pony that has lasted through twenty years of hard work and is a great rototiller.
