Expert Reviews


What experts liked

Once you step down, the three spikes surround the weed and, with just a twist and pull, let you remove the weed in its entirety. To make the tool even more helpful, it includes an ejection slide mechanism that literally throws the weed out of the tool into the nearest bag or container. Compared to bending over or using a crude hand shovel that removes more than just the weed, the Ames Stand-up Weeder is a product that will let a professional landscaper quickly remove weeds (and only weeds) from a flower bed or other finished area quickly and easily. Time is money, so this tool should pay for itself quickly.
