   This is without a doubt one of the best garden tools I own! This summer I decided to attack the insane amount of dandelions we had. It was SOOOOO bad, but I refuse to use the chemicals and nastiness known as weed and feed. Frankly it would do us all some good to remember that life takes work...get down there and touch the earth. This is a great way to save your back for the hoards of dandelions, though! It really gets a hold of the root and pulls them out! Yes, it can be a bit difficult to get the whole taproot with this, but it still does a great job overall. It gets jammed on occasion, but nothing a screwdriver can't fix. Just dig out a little of the dirt, and boom...it is good as new. This is all metal and stands up to pretty much everything you can throw at it. I am thrilled - money well spent!

   I have some very prickly weeds in my yard that have long roots and and very difficult for me to pull by hand or dig out of the yard. With this tool, I was able to directly target the weed, pull it from the ground and release it directly into my bucket of weeds to discard. No bending over or getting on my knees! In addition, it kind of aerated the lawn in the process. I probably wouldn't use this in a location where I have rocks and weed barrier because it would punch holes in the barrier but maybe already hole there? Anyway, very effective tool and I love it. Worth the price!

   I've been using this weed removal tool for about two weeks now, and I love it. It's simply designed and rugged, a combination of which I am fond. The only parts that aren't quality metal are the plastic and rubber push knob at the top (which works fine as is) and the foam grip on the handle (which arrived with a small split that spread until it came off after one day of extensive use--which was okay because I discovered I prefer to use it grip-less). Most important, it works as advertised. Keys to success: 1.) Center the tool over the section of the weed where its root enters the soil; if you miss, just adjust your aim and try again. 2.) Push the foot pedal all the way down until it's flush with the lawn surface to ensure maximum penetration and nail convergence/constriction. Let your weight do the work. 3.) Twist the tool at least a full 360 degrees before lifting it back up. If done right, you'll end up with a satisfying, significant clawful of intact weed with a earth/clay plug at the base. It works best on mature, broad leaf weeds, but I've even had success with clusters of crabgrass and creeping weeds when I can locate their points of origin.

   So my yard is full of goats head and dandelions. I did not have much luck with the dandelions which is no big deal they feed the bees, but it did pull out the darn goats head sticker plants roots and all. This is a very heavy duty puller, it does not have anything on it that looks like it is going to bend or break. In an hour I pulled over 200 goats head plants and when you hit the top it will fling the plant into a pile, bucket etc.

   Bought this after being frustrated with the weeds in my yard. Not a fan of kneeling to pull weeds when there is a larger area. Went online found a guy on YouTube who tested 10-12 weeding tools. He demonstrated them and gave his opinion. This one performed the best during his tests and was definitely his favorite. After it retuned in stock, I had to get it. Works great. My kid can even use it. It does make holes in the dirt because it pulls out the root and the dirt around it, so that might be irritating to people. Definitely glad I made the purchase. Have used it quite a bit.

   Watch yourself peeps, this thing can be addictive. It's simple to use and very sturdy. My advice, get it right in the center of the weed so you can get as much out as possible. I usually can get the whole sucker out. It leaves holes about the size of a quarter in your lawn, however, that can be good for aerating. My only critique of this thing is the foam thingie that they put on the handle which I can only assume is designed to provide some comfort, but it does not. It slips around. Man up, or use gloves and pull that damn thing off. One more thing, twist it a good 3 or 4 times until you can feel the weed release then pull. And if you get a weed stuck or jammed in it, flip it over and smack the release button on the ground (like my 2 year old does when he's helping) and it will pop right off.

   Bought this for my hubby - he's usually on hands and knees digging out dandys and other weeds. He's in his 60s, with over 20 back surgeries under his belt. It is great that he doesn't have to get down on his hands and knees to weed any longer. This is such a huge improvement. He really likes it and it works very well. His only 'con' comment - "It takes a pretty good chunk of earth out with the weed." Not enough to be an issue, though, just an observation.

   Cannot kneel because of a knee replacement, bending down to pull weeds leaves me with a backache, so looked for a tool to use to make the job easier. This weed grabber really fits the bill. Received it and used it for the first time yesterday, and it works great! My gardens are a mess of weeds, and in no time I was done with almost half of them. The grabber is easy to use, and looking forward to finishing the job making my garden look well-tended once again. This item is well made and glad I bought it!
