What Customers Are Saying

This bulb planter tool received mixed reviews. While some found it useful for planting bulbs in soft soil, many reported issues with the quality and durability. Common complaints included the poor construction, with the plastic handle and components breaking easily. The tool also struggled with harder, compacted, or clay-like soil. On the positive side, some appreciated the spring-loaded release mechanism that helped eject the soil. Overall, this appears to be an affordable but low-quality tool that may work well in ideal conditions but is not durable enough for regular, heavy-duty use.

It does a decent job but could better

Would Not Recommend

It worked pretty good. Was disappointed that it didn't pull the dirt out as a plug when I pulled up. All the loose dirt fell out of the tool back into the hole.

Nifty little gadget

Would Recommend

Nifty little gadget that worked well to plant bulbs. It expands to let go of the dirt when you pull it out of the ground.

Handles are too small, foam padding fell off, device is almost 3 feet long- bad for back/posture, step/press/dig bars horrible! All these seem to be made for Lilliputians
