Has small dimensions for transportation. The disadvantages include ill-conceived hollow handles. It will not be able to cultivate weeds or heavy soil.

The cost is closer to the Korean Daewoo, the power is a complete analogy of Hyundai. Experts say that the main advantage is good performance. The downside is the inconvenience of the first assembly, the overestimated price-quality ratio.
- The Huter GMC-1.8 was recognized as the second best light gasoline cultivator. This is not a Chinese unit, but with a Chinese motor.
- The second place in the group of medium-sized gasoline cultivators was taken by the Caiman Nano 40K with the Japanese Kawasaki FJ110 engine, which undoubtedly delighted the buyers. The well-thought-out ergonomics were also called a plus, and the inability to work on heavy soils was a minus. In the same category, the third place was taken by the German MTD T / 205 with a Chinese engine copied from Honda. Buyers call it good.
