No. Today one of the tines broke on my tiller, weld sheared clean off. Have had this tiller for years and use several times a year. I used some sites to find diagrams and part numbers. I was ready to order from the small engine site, $60 plus shipping and several day delay. I googled the part number, first link was an amazon prime next day delivery for $56. Maybe tomorrow it will show up and it will be a counterfeit and I will start the journey of losing confidence, but not today as I have never received a known counterfeit from them and we order at least 100 things or more from them a year.

Edit: like another reviewer, I really only purchase name brand items and mosty from amazon.com reseller. My last amazon purchase from a non-amazon reseller was fine, ramset 1 7/8" pins that I could not find anywhere else, for fastening 2x4s to a steel I-beam.
