I received both, a 7-ft box blade and 72-inch rotary mower. Both seem to be fine, well-designed, well-constructed tools for the two hours I've used each implement, so far. I expect they will provide excellent value for many years to come. The crating was stout and well done, protecting both items during shipping. While setup was uncomplicated, per se, for each, I experienced a couple of issues for each that subtracted a star from my rating and generated some advice for future purchasers of these items: For the box blade, the instructions did not include a good photo or illustration of the fully assembled product, though I found a good one later on Titan's web site, which may have helped me avoid an assembly mistake. I couldn't tell which way the front and back center link attachment bars were intended to overlap, so just guessed based on what seemed to provide the best fit after merely snugging up the bottom bolts of the four support bars. What I did not realize until I had everything torqued down and attempted attaching the blade to my 3-point hitch was the gap between the front bars was a 1/2-inch too narrow to accept the center link. So, everything had to be loosened up, then reverse the overlap of both sets of bars and re-torque. For the mower, the issue was the orientation of the mower to the steel crate. The instruction called for partially assembling the mower, then connecting it to the tractor to lift it from the crate to complete assembly. Without partially cutting up the crate (The crate elements were too close to the mower deck to risk using the cutting torch, and my Sawzall was on loan to one of my kids.), this was impossible to do due to interference with the welded crate pieces. Alternatively, I chained the lower hitch attachment points and the wheel height adjustment bosses to my forklift and lifted it up and out of the crate, which worked well. I might also suggest, similar to how it was done with the box blade, putting a long wood pallet under the mower crate, instead of the short one it was shipped with, to better support the load while forking it off the delivery truck. Otherwise, and unless you have 60-inch forks, do consider running chains securely from the front corners of the crate back to stout attachment points at the back of the forks, taking out as much chain slack as possible before lifting to provide better and safer support for the front end of these long, heavy crates.
