The Draper Soft Grip Garden Tiller is a robust hand cultivator designed for effective soil preparation in beds, borders and vegetable plots. This manual tiller features six hardened steel tines that penetrate compacted earth to break up and aerate top soil, making it ideal for preparing ground before planting or refreshing established beds. The tubular steel construction provides durability for regular garden use, whilst the integrated footplate allows you to apply additional downward force using body weight rather than back muscles alone. This design helps reduce physical strain during extended periods of soil cultivation, making the tool particularly suitable for gardeners who need to work larger areas or tackle harder ground conditions. Soft-grip handles deliver improved comfort and control during operation, reducing hand fatigue and helping maintain a secure grip in damp conditions. The tiller is well-suited for breaking up compacted soil, incorporating compost or organic matter in
