4 5 Wish it was stronger Janet I. I bought this on the recommendation of a horticulturalist at a public garden. I loved it at first, using it for weeding crabgrass. I was using it not so much like a hoe, but I used the point to cut roots and pry roots up. After a couple of weeks, the metal handle bent while I was prying up a root. A couple of days later, the blade broke off while I was prying out another root. I was really disappointed. I'm ordering another one, but will try to use it only for hoeing, not prying.

5 5 THIS IS THE "GO TO" TOOL M. Leone I work for a large commercial landscaping company, and when it come to weeding, this tool is the ONLY tool I'll use. Its fast, precise and made well. Use the tool in one hand to cut through weeded, and grab with the other. My boss was totally amazed at the time saver. Try it for a few days, get the hang of it, and I am sure you'll buy a few for friends or crew members.

5 5 The one tool to have Charlene S. As an avid gardener I'm always on the outlook for effective and efficient tools. This is the one tool that I reach for again and again. It slices through chickweed and henbit roots like magic. I highly recommend this tool, and always have a spare handy.

5 5 The Best Weeder I've Found The Garden Lady I love this weeder for weeding in beds, raspberry patches and strawberry patches. I bought the last two for my daughters. They love them also. Great for weeding around roses with the longer handle.

5 5 Terrific weeder! KI Just tried this out today in my raised bed - it easily sliced through and lifted up the weeds that had accumulated since last fall. Fun to use, handle is comfortable. Feels like a quality product.

4 5 Pro Gardeners wish it were stronger AJ Dirt I have a garden maintenance company, and buy lots of tools from AMLeo. This one is a hit at first, my guys love it. But it doesn't last a full season. The blade eventually breaks off. I buy a new one every year. Wish it was stronger, and was all one long piece inside the wooden handle.

2 5 Not balanced DinRV The off-center tool head makes it rest unbalanced in the hand - its weight makes it want to be in neither the horizontal weed hoeing position nor the vertical chopping position, but rather somewhere in between. It requires a firm grip, but the handle is slippery and round, making that hard to do.

5 5 Money well spent Janice This was the best tool I invested in this season! The unique head shape and blade angle cut through tough Johnson grass with ease even in drought-baked beds. I wish I would have discovered this handy tool sooner!

4 5 Handy Weeder gets the job done! Bonnie I really like this tool for scraping up shallow-rooted weeds, like invasive ground covers! It does not work as well with thick vines, like ivy, or over areas mulched with wood chips. But overall, it's a great tool!

5 5 Handy Weeder 610HW Julie the Gardener I love your weeder, I use it constantly. I always use it to weed in the rose garden sponsored by my garden club. Other members have seen it and been so impressed by its sturdy design and its effectiveness, that I have ordered from you and sold to them at least 16. I highly recommend it.

4 5 Handy Weeder Nick Engler, Professional Gardener This is one of my favorite weeders to date, and I've tried them all. I'm using the fifth one now, three have broken just behind the head and the other two took a powder and disappeared, or were accidentally thrown out. I still have not decided if the handle is too long -- when I'm on my knees weeding with it -- or not long enough so I can use it standing up. The metal could be harder so the haft doesn't bend quite so easily, and this seems to be a problem from weeder to weeder not with the product as a whole.

5 5 handy weeder deb v I have had a weeder similar to this from another company for 30 years. I wanted to gift a friend with one, went online & saw they were $55.00 plus! I checked the reviews for this handy weeder, ordered one, loved it, ordered 2 more for gifts, they love them. I do not know how people garden with anything else. I have not used a trowel or garden fork in years & this one is actually more comfortable than my "Cadillac" one from years ago. Gift yourself with one of these.

5 5 Great tool to have Jim from Novi Just recieved my extended reach weeder, it is great. Has a nice edge on it to cut off the weeds. the side has a nice point to till up the soil around the plants you are weeding. It's lite weight but durable, easy to keep a keen edge on it. [You are] so quick on shipping I had it the next day, with standard shipping.

2 5 First Day Blues A. Frank I purchased this weeder because my friend had one and raved about it. My first day I hit a stone under the dirt while loosening soil and the tip bent under. Pulling a dandelion root bent the metal neck and I was less than impressed when the bronze colored paint began to chip off the metal. The metal needs to be harder or this weeder needs to be used only on soft potting soil. Didn't hold up in the real world.

5 5 Extended-Reach Weeder J. Gutierrez This has quickly become my favorite weeding tool. It easily slips beneath the weed; it's wide enough to drag the weeds toward you, and then you can turn the tool sideways to loosen up the dirt around the plant. This tool has definitely made weeding much easier

5 5 Extended Reach Weeder Raeann B. This weeder has been a real asset to me. I am a paraplegic who loves gardening but hates weeding because I have to bend over so much to get to the weeds. This tool alleviates this problem completely. It is great for weeding because it actually gets most of the roots. Dandelions and thistle are the exceptions. A product worth adding to your gardening equipment.

5 5 Everyone wants my tool! J. Hopkins I've used another "lighter" version of this tool before and have had the blade break numerous times. I praise the day I discovered this "heavy weight" version AMLeonard carries. At the farm where I work, every volunteer who tries it, asks me to order them one too! A must have for every farmer or gardener who gets down on their knees to weed...and expects the best from their tools. Thanks, AML (especially Brooks!)

5 5 Best tool for weeding ever! MJ This tool is the best for weeding (and edging and planting and....) that I've ever found. It gets beneath the weed root. Is sharp enough to enhance a dug edge. It's a tool I use extensively in the garden. The only issue that I have with it is that the metal part of the handle needs to be stronger - it can bend on you and then the angle of the tool is wrong and it does not work as well.

5 5 Best hand tool ever!!! Jackie With this tool, you can reach all the weeds in a large area at one time. If you turn it slightly on its side you can "pop" out a root system with a flick of your wrist. It has become my go-to tool

5 5 Best all around hand tool! M.J. - professional gardener I have used this tool for years and have found it to be the tool I can't live without. I use it for weeding, and it really cuts through the soil to get the roots out. I also use it for planting annuals, as it can dig a small hole quickly. I even use it to clean up and refresh a bed edging, works great for that, too. The only down side of this make of the tool is that the metal part of the handle is not as strong as it should be, and I have bent it fairly easily.

5 5 A real work saver Jim from Novi, MI I bought one of these extended reach hoes about 3 years ago, I loved it, made quick work on my weeds in the garden. The blade has a very keen edge and stays sharp. I lost it somehow, and had to get a new one asap. It is GREAT.

5 5 "KILLER WEEDER" We live on 10 acres, 3 1/2 of which is landscaped--lots of work A "Real" gardener is Always looking for the next best tool to get the job done. I found this one Years ago and continue to order them yearly, always have a few on hand. I happened to have a Korean couple move onto our ranch to help me do the job on the ranch, and gave them one of these as a home-coming present, sort of a joke so they get the idea they are going to work. They read the writing on the handle and told me it said it was for Right Handed people...I'm left handed and now I have just spotted a new product, a left handed version of the same. So Guess what, it will be my next purchase at amleo.com. This is the only gardening company/web where I have found this weeder; I hope you never discontinue the product. Out of fear, this is why I always have a few on hand, just in case!

1 5 Handle Bends and Breaks Too Easily Tennessee Gardener I had high hopes for this Japanese forged tool. However It is a beautifully crafted, but poorly designed. It's long metal piece connecting the handle and the blade is not strong and bends easily. I noticed it bending at the handle and kept straightening it until it broke after about 2 months of use in loose East TN clay based yard and garden soil. Unfortunately it only has a 1 month warrantee. Go figure.
The 10" long version with the metal piece embedded in the wood handle might hold up better, but not have as much reach.
I'll look around locally for a replacement or may try the cape cod weeder. It looks stronger.

So far they have stood up quite well and we have made it through the third season without major breaks or losses. We work in a public garden, so the weeding demands are quite high. Awesome tool!
