FLORA GUARD Garden Tool Set， 6 Piece Heavy Duty, Large Size Gardening Hand Tools, Sturdy & Durable, Classic Utility Gardening Gift for Men and Women

We have a large 2-level brick patio surrounded by a seating wall and a huge garden area that surrounds the entire patio. The original garden area was planted over 20 years ago, and took about 3 years to complete the design and plantings. I did the design and almost all of the planting and maintenance since my husband felt his only responsibility was mowing 3 of the 5 acres we own. 20 years ago, the garden looked like a botanical garden, but then life got in the way - my elderly mother lived with us for 10 years and we aged.The garden was let go for over 15 years and nature took over. Last year we paid a landscaper to remove the unwanted trees and bushes and the larger weeds. Although the garden area looked much cleaner, this spring the weeds came back with a vengeance. Since my husband told me that he resented I had not done any outdoor work for a few years, I have taken on clearing the entire garden of weeds and other unwanted plants. At 77 years of age, this is no small task.For almost 2 weeks, I have been pulling weeds by hand and removing small branches and dead leaves by hand. I decided to look for hand garden tools that might make the job easier and found this set which I immediately ordered and got the next day.I have been using these tools for the last couple of days and I can't believe how much easier is to remove weeds and dead leaves under perennial plants. So, what do I really love about this set of garden hand tools?1) They are attractive and pretty which I suppose would be important only to a woman.2) They are very well made and heavy duty. So, I believe they will last for a long time.3) The variety of tools works for so many purposes. The hand rake is great for getting dead leaves and small branches of under growing perennials where a large rake wouldn't get under and between plants. The different pronged rakes help to loosen soil so weeds can be pulled with the roots so they don't come back. The small hoe helps to loosen soil so the tiny weeds can be removed with the roots. The trowel helps with removal of larger weeds that have deeper roots, like dandelions.4) The box the tools come in has a handle. So, it can be used to store and transport the tools to the work area without having to buy a tool bag.The only hand tool not suppled in this set is pruning shears which I already have. Personally, I would definitely recommend this set of garden hand tools. It includes almost every hand garden tool you could imagine and then some.UPDATE 06/15/24:I have been using these tools for over 6 weeks every day for the massive garden cleanup. Most of these tools have been so very helpful to get the job done. At this point, I am so happy I found these tools, and can't imagine getting this huge job done without them.I hope this review was helpful for you.

Great tool set. Sturdy and everything you need.

It's Blue not purple and it's really pretty and sturdy

Great gift for my Gardner!

Cute set of gardening tools. Functional and good size. Comfortable to use. Definitely durable.

Very sturdy and a great value. I love them!

These are good, cheaper and lower quality then I was expecting, but you get what you pay for. lolThey will pass the old lady text, but dont let your young sons play with them or they will break. lol

The tools arrived in good order and were well packed. They look good and work well; but they are not of great quality. They may have to be replaced sooner than anticipated. M. Jolly
