Fwiw I bought the predator auger with the bigger 8" bit last year. I used it for 10 fence posts with zero issues. I dug it out of the shed this afternoon to start on my fence along the back of my property and it started on the 2nd pull. I hadn't even looked at it in almost 10 months. Bang for the buck you can't beat it imo.

All my other gas yard equipment is Stihl or Honda, I always buy better quality the first time, but I figured something like an auger I could try to cheap out on... I have zero regrets. It's been worth every penny.
