4x25"

Had to dig some small post holes in clay soil (north Texas) and decided to try this out. I only had an 18v cordless drill available, but it seemed to hold up on the highest torque setting. It likely benefited from getting a slight cool down period for each time I needed to clean off the clay soil from the auger. It doesn't weigh too much but I definitely supported it on its own rather than putting too much stress on the drill's chuck. My first post hole to 2 feet deep (it's only a pole for fencing a duck run) took about 25 minutes, but it could be faster without taking a video or the 5 year old child "helping" me. Seems to work quickly enough but the clay would be challenging for any tool since it's so sticky. If you have less sticky conditions then your speed will be better. This was done in somewhat damp soil (mid spring after some rain). Overall I'm satisfied with the product and would use it again to use the drill instead of a traditional post hole digger. It also takes up less space and was cheaper!

I used this with my impact drill to dig holes for my aluminum fence posts snd it worked great! Over 40 post hole dug 2 feet deep!

we started the hole with a battery operated drill and finished it with a brand new electric drill but I can only upload one video so I can't show both but here's what happened. It worked GREAT at creating the hole, no problems there BUT... When we used our BRAND NEW battery powered drill to create one hole it overheated and we had to stop before the hole was finished so he switched out to a BRAND NEW electric drill and by the time we were finished (apx 30 seconds) the new electric drill was smoking and ended up fried but the battery powered one is okay because he stopped in time. The bit itself is great but it is really hard on your equipment and it cost us an expensive piece of equipment. He has been building homes, small engine repair and doing handyman work his entire life so he knew what he was doing, it wasn't exactly a human error thing but in hindsight, do your hole bit-by-bit, don't dig the entire hole in one try, take breaks even on the smallest project and check your drill often. Our project was creating a hole to put a fence pole in for a chicken coop run and the hole wasn't exactly excessive but using the bit is just really really hard on your drill. It didn't start smoking until he finished, immediately after I stopped filming so the drill was ruined before we ever knew there was a problem and the drill ran for only the short time shown in the video. Overall the bit itself is great but be VERY careful with your equipment. To use it just to plant a bulb it should be okay but I don't recommend using it for fence post holes of any size because the bit itself will do it but your drilling equipment might not. *If this review helped you let me know by hitting the Helpful button.

I use the auger to crush fresh grapes to make juice. Perfect!

This auger makes quick and easy work of planting 250 or so green house starts in my garden each Spring. I can probably do 10 each 4 inch diameter holes by 6 inches deep in about 2 minutes. It works nicely in soil that is not heavily compacted or dried out hardened clay. A word of caution, the auger can hang up completely on tree roots or rocks depending on their size. If the auger does hang up, the user better be maintaining a good grip on the 3/8 drive drill or it will forcefully pull free of their grasp. I would be leery of chucking the auger up into a 1/2 drill due to their higher torque output and increased possibility of injury from a possible hang up.

This augar saved my husband from the yearly post hole diggers in the garden!! Plus the time savings was a bonus. He could drill a hole in just a minute. However from the start it was intended to use the Milwaukee impact drill with this augar & it worked perfectly. There is no way a regular battery powered drill would have the power or torque to effectively power the augar. Side note to the seller of this product please reveal the information above regarding the drill info. It’s info that people need to know who are considering purchasing this augar.

Drill tip is pretty dull, it doesn't work on harder soil.

This is my wife's go-to tool for planting. It augers a nice hole which is easy to enlarge to fit the plant. She ammends the soil with organic matter and really blends it with this tool attached to a 1/2" drill. It chews through small rocks and roots too. The bit is surprisingly sturdy, but be careful. Sometimes the bit will hang on a rock or root which causes the drill to twist out of her hand. For this reason I recommend slower speeds or a slip setting. This product exceeded my expectations and i gladly recommend this product.

I like the look and idea of this product but immediately from attaching it I noticed the problem. The bit is crooked from the drill attachment! Even eyeballing it you can notice it’s not centred so the drill bit wobbles like crazy when used. Going to have to return this for a refund or ask for another which I hope is better!

This Auger drill bit has made my life much easier. Its sturdy design makes drilling holes a breeze. Highly recommended

Makes a good shaken cocktail. Maybe a cherry dispenser built in would be good

This tool is INDISPENSABLE for your garden work! Thanks god I bought it! Quick tip, you need to spin the auger before you touch the ground! 100% recommend

This little auger has been great. It's drilled holes deep and wide enough to use dead fall as fence posts. We added rails and it's been strong enough to withstand full size horses leaning/pushing up on it. The end that sits in the drill easily strips so be careful of that and make sure to brace for hitting roots/rocks, but otherwise a solid purchase.
