Ashman Short Handle Transfer Shovel (1 Pack) - Kids Beach & Garden Shovel, 27-inch Sturdy Blade, D-Handle Gardening Tool

I dug up a bunch of large thistle plants with this shovel. It performed well...the blade cut into the ground pretty easily, nothing got bent, and the paint stayed in place.

Great price for what I needed. I’ve been using it in my chicken coop, and it works very well. I needed something sturdy with a shorter handle and this works like a dream.

The perfect dirt jump packing shovel for my little guy. Built very well.

Certainly a mini shovel. A good fit for the truck or even car at this size. Solid, with the same construction as more expensive larger tools of the kind. Because of the size ergonomics are a wash, it is after all a mini shovel. It seems sturdy enough with possibly the same issues as larger shovel of this style like the d handle always being a weak spot. It is a plastic handle end rather than the sturdier metal with a wood grip, but with a smaller payload area it should be fine. The sticker was the biggest issue, peeling off in little bits and leaving gobs of residue behinds. 1st world problems though.

I like the compactness of this small shovel. I walk long distances and it is easy to carry. I dug about a dozen holes and some of them contained bush roots. I was able to make it work each time. In my opinion, another six inches longer handle would make it more efficient when digging. But then the compactness would take a hit. Overall it is well worth the price and is great when covering long distances

Good shovel.Short handle, easy to dig with.

Good

I am a senior who broke both feet last year. Ground. Very hard here, doubt I could push larger shovel in ground. Good size for my gardening. Unsure of quality yet.
