Customer Reviews

Broke right in half
I had this item a little under a year, stored it in the garage. It has gotten a lot of use and I really liked it until it the spade portion broke right in half while spading up some grass. I went back to where I bought it and they said they could do nothing and deal directly with the manufacturing. They said they received my request for help but have not contacted me and now it is over a week later.

garden spade
very sturdy and durable, we use this in our bussiness and found it to be the only one that last(and we have tried many brands)

Great shovel
I got this shovel at Lowes because it was the best spade they had in stock. I've been using it for almost a year, and it is nearly indestructible. The last week or so I've been double digging new garden beds in my sand-clay backyard (as hard as concrete after a week of no rain), and it has been a comparative breeze. I've resharpened the shovel once to get through the large pine roots and stumps, and the plastic handle needs re-tightening about every 3 hours of digging (it is held on by a single screw, I'll probably give it a drop of super glue to lock the threads as it is wiggling loose). I am able to push this shovel all the way into the ground, and then jump up and down on the handle with all of my weight without it showing any signs of stress whatsoever (the handle of the fork I was using snapped in 2 with much much less force).

I highly recommend this for gardening. My only reservation is that for another $20-$30 you could move up to something made of stainless steel.
