I have a Jiffy 3hp STX 10 inch and have had no issues whatsoever. It cuts very quickly but it does not start 1st pull like everyone else's LOL. It starts about the 4th or 5th pull and will idle all day long if I wanted it to. Most other augers I have seen being used on the ice, the guys have to constantly feather the throttle when walking to drill a new hole so it doesn't stall.
I have never tried anything other than Jiffy but I am certainly happy with mine.
