Walensee Steel Tamper with 48 inch Steel Handle 8"x8" Garden Tamper with Rubber Grip for Laborsaving All-Steel Tamper Heavy Duty Ideal Tool for Leveling Ground Installing pavers and Repairing Blacktop

Likes: 1) It's a good weight (9 lbs) 2) It's VERY STURDY 3) It's "customizable" 4) The supplied nuts are nylon "locking" types - they WILL NOT "spontaneously loosen"! 5) The steel tube material is BEEFY - it won't "easily crumple, etc." with use 6) The "bracket welds" on the "tamp plate" are impressive - I don't expect them to break under "normal use" 7) Assembly is VERY EASY - the holes actually LINE UP!Dislikes: 1) As noted by other reviewers, the SCREWS are a bit long! 2) The "tamp plate" material "could" be a little thicker (i.e., by 50%?)This tamper does a Very Good Job of "compacting" yard waste (chopped blackberries, etc.) in the disposal bin. I put it together using ONLY ONE handle tube (the one with the rubber end) as that's all I needed for using it and, to my "surprise", the finished length is PERFECT for my use!Assembly: DO NOT USE the enclosed "nut wrench" - rather use a 1/2" socket and ratchet handle. Trust me, the ratchet will make tightening the nuts a lot easier. The enclosed HEX WRENCH is more than adequate for "holding" the bolts while you tighten the nuts. Yes, you can "over-tighten" the nuts a little - this will help prevent "rattling" by "compressing" the steel against itself.Bolt length: I appreciate the "generous" bolt length, however once assembled/tightened, there is "quite a bit" of protruding threads (between 3/8" and 1/2"). However, this can be alleviated by using a hacksaw or "Dremel" tool with a cutting disc to lop off the extra threads. Just remember to FILE DOWN the sharp edges afterward (especially the HANDLE bolts)! :)Otherwise, this is a Very Good "budget" tool for the "casual, etc." gardener.

Easy to assemble. Robustly made. Arrived very quickly 4.5kgs good for doing tamping for a long time. Worth the money

なかなか探すと無い事があるので、ネットで購入しました。製品自体は良い作りだと思いますね。重量は想像より軽い感じなので、あと2キロ位重くても仕事はし易いかなぁって感想です。

Easy to put together .. made of good materials.. the tamper is solid .. worked very well.

This stamper is right on. Easy to assemble, screw together, nice rubber end and very sturdy. Did exactly what I bought it for.
