My suggestion would be go to the "tips" column and click on augers. There is a whole bunch of info about ALL the augers. The actual owners give their views on what they use. I my self was going to buy one but the $30 sharpening cost and $$ extra blades kept me from buying it. I also bought another brand at a VERY cheap price. They ALL USE TECH ENGINES!!!!!!The only difference is in the rpms, the cutting blades and gear housings. Good luck in what you buy. It is definitely better than hand augering a 8"-10" hole.......

Neal   I bought An Eskimo Shark 16 years ago  I've never done a thing to it   it has the same spark plug it came with I never drain the gas and it start every year When I buy a new one it will be a 10"  I take it you got your Cabelas close out catalog this week great savings if my auger didn't run so well I'd send for the 10"

PS be careful over at Chocorua last weeks  Sun had an article about the parking lot
