What Customers Are Saying

Customers are divided on this shovel. Most praise its lightweight fiberglass handle and affordability for occasional light gardening, noting it reduces fatigue and works well for small tasks. However, many report the shovel breaks, bends, or fails on first use when encountering rocks or roots, with the handle snapping or blade bending under minimal stress. Some accept this fragility as a trade-off for the low price, using it only for loose soil work. Overall, reviewers recommend it strictly for light, non-demanding tasks, not for moderate or heavy digging.

Spend $5 more dollars for the better shovel.

Would Not Recommend

This shovel is cheap regarding cost and quality. The shovel head bends in the middle if not used straight up/down. I liked that I could remove the handle from the new shovel and put it on my old shovel head. I sent the new shovel head to the garbage can.
