  • Root terminator is simply outstanding!
Size: 48-Inch Pattern Name: Shovels
Excellent piece of equipment!! The digability of this tool is astronomical!!! It slices through roots like a saw and out comes your problem child with ease. Grip of terminator shovel is 5 stars. Design and quality is also a 5 star reward. Because of ruggedness conditions it went through, durability of mr. root terminator passed with flying colors. 5 stars! In my stand point, value for the money for this thing's capabilities is outstanding. ... show more

  • It’s good for digging out small stumps
Size: 48-Inch Pattern Name: Shovels
The shovel works well for uprooting small stumps and shrubbery. The serrated edge can hack through most smaller roots, speeding up the process. You might still need a clipper or saw on the roots that are over 1/2” or so. Also the shovel is not made of adamantium. Don’t use it as a pry bar, it is a small shovel and can deform if abused. Use it for digging around the roots. ... show more

  • Best shovel ever!
Size: 32-Inch Pattern Name: Shovels
This is my go-to shovel. It has sharp jagged edges to cut through the hard ground. I'm 74 and it is easy to handle and light weight. I'm also short but it isn't too big for me. I use it for everything from digging post holes to planting rose bushes. I'm in the mountains of Colorado and also have a lot of moles in my yard. It works great to dig into their tunnels. Also good for breaking up roots from oak trees. It's a work horse! ... show more

  • Good Shovel - Works Well
Size: 58-Inch Pattern Name: Shovels
Some plant removal requires more than a regular shovel. This shovel works well on fibrous, tuberous rooted plants. For us, it helped in the removal of foxtail ferns. The only suggestion I can think of to improve the tool would be if the ledge you step/push on to push it into the plant's root system was a little bit larger (I have average size feet). It was a bit pricey, but we have enough use for it so for us it was worth it. The only reason I'm giving it a 4 star instead of a 5 star is due to the foot ledge and the price. We like this shovel. ... show more

This is the best gardening tool I own. It does what it says it does and more. I have trouble with bending over digging for a long time and this has been a life saver for my back. If you're on the fence about purchasing this, I have to tell you it's the best tool for gardening. Just buy it. I'm so happy with it. ... show more
