“After receiving a replacement for our first one, (thank you) the second one also broke in the same spot within 48 hours of receiving it. The plastic component from the main arm to the foot can not take too much pressure when pulling back.We are yet to contact hoselink reference the second one breaking. They were very helpful when we advised them on the first break.”
“It's a well thought out tool that for normal lawns and smaller weeds seems to work REALLY well, including pulling long roots as promised. However, I found that larger weeds combined with our kikuyu lawn, which adds to the tension, caused the lower vertical bar to bend (permanently) meaning that the hand ejection handle separated and didn't really work too well, though the foot lever to eject the weeds still did.Unfortunately I then tried a very heavy/stubborn weed, and with the slight bending that had occurred previously the lower arm bent irreparably, with no simple way for it to be enforced/mended (Hoselink have offered a replacement).If it was a bit heavier/stronger, and the hand ejection grip wasn't just held on by a soft plastic catch, I'd give it 5 stars, but knock one each off for those problems. If you're careful and don't try and tackle huge weeds, you'll probably love it.”
“This is the best gardening tool (after a chainsaw).Seriously - it is some much better than crawling around on my hands and knees with the hand lever ones. It pulls a fairly big chunk out but I tend to put the excess dirt back in the aeration hole. That does give me a stiff back after a while, kind of defeating the purpose but...it is still a great tool”
“I think it's great, amazing how it pulls them out, roots and all but if you did it by hand it would just pull the top off.Very happy with it and looks to be a strong sturdy piece of equipment.”
“Excellent. Makes weeding a lot easier for me as I’m 75 years old, so no more trying to get up from the lawn when weeding. I have recommended this item to my sister-in-law who has purchased the item and she is also happy with the ease of it,”
