Sharpex Bend-Proof Garden Trowel - Heavy Duty Polished Steel - Rust Resistant Garden Hand Shovel for Quicker Work - Digs Through Rocky/Heavy soils - Comfort Grip (Silver)

This is a garden tool for digging soil. The product is of outstanding quality.COMPARISION BETWEEN BROAD AND NARROW TROWEL from sharpex:Broad trowel has more capacity of removing soil but is blunt towards the tip whether narrow trowel is sharp towards the tip for excellent digging but capacity is of removing soil is low. The build quality of broad trowel is better. The choice rests with personal preferences and requirements.BUILD QUALITY: Excellent (5/5)👍The trowel is extreamly well built. Extreamly sturdy.👍The thickness of the stainless steel sheet is heavy duty 0.2mm which is very thick considering the size of the product.👍It will never bend, never rust, never crack so i am at complete peace of mind of its sturdiness and durability.👍The plastic handle is equally sturdy and very firmly attached, no worries.👍It's eligible for rough days in farm work.The steel quality is top notch. It wont chip if pitted against hard stone or brick.PROBLEMS NOTICED:👎🏿The length of plastic handle is 10cm which is very short and problem. Please make the handle bigger for easy grip.

The trowel is big enough at 27 x 8.5 x 3 cm and weighs 198gm.The handle, however, is just 10.5 cm long and is not bigger than my already small hands. To use it, I feel that better leverage can be got by using it as a scoop rather than a trowel, as in thumbs and index holding the steel portion above the handle.It's not unusable, but it's not easy to dig deep and haul mud.Build quality is good and handle could handle deep prodding. I also don't expect it to bend and detach at the handle.The actual working area is already 1.5mm thick stainless steel, making it suitable for harder soil, without getting twisted.One star less for the obvious holding issue.

Sturdy? Bend proof? Sure. But why such a short handle? For the few pesa you saved on the handle, you’ve managed to make it truly uncomfortable to use! Anyone with average sized hands like mine will be unhappy with every use of this trowel. The handle doesn’t even reach beyond the palm of your hand, so you’ll be sore from very little use each time. Short sighted design. Can’t recommend buying this for any serious gardeners.

The product is decent, but the main issue is the handle, it's too small, I don't think even a kid can get a decent grip on it if it has to be used. The handle needs to be atleast 2-3 inches more long for it to be properly usable. Used it for a lot of gardening purposes in our backyard and it kept slipping off and weren't able to get a good grip on it at all.

Thickness: It has the required thicknessSturdiness: The trowel is sturdy by the feel. Would get to know the quality as in when it is used. So far so good.Durability: Looks durable with the kind of material used. Nice quality.The handle grip could have been littl more long and thick.I'm giving 4/5, coz no product is 100% perfect, so this also has areas of opportunity to be looked at improving.Otherwise, first look and feel says ,"Value for Money".
