Esschert DesignCopper Plated Dibber

Unfortunately this is NOT a quality item. You'll be tempted by the picture, but the reality is this is a poorly-designed item matched by poor assembly. "Quality" means: (1) the T-handle should be firmly attached to the shaft so it won't rotate; (2) the entire piece should be thick, clearly designed to last many years; (3) the metal sheath is firmly attached. The Esschert doesn't match any of the 3 criteria. (1) The T-handle is not firmly affixed to the shaft, meaning as you turn it in the process of making your hole, the "T" will twist but the dibber will not. (2) The shaft narrows as it comes into the handle, and there was a crack in the wood shaft as it matched up to the sheath. (3) The nails were not fully punched in, meaning they'll catch on things in your shed or in the garden. If you want quality, go for this one: "Bosmere R462KS Kent & Stowe Classic Stainless Steel Dibber"

I used this pretty but useless little dibber to plant about a dozen bulbs and it fell apart in my hands. The rivets that hold the copper to the wood are planted in the ground along with the bulbs. Guess I'll find them in the spring?

First one was of poor quality. Supplier send out a replacement within two days, which I much appreciated. The replacement is flawless and works like a charm.

Never dibbed so hard in my life!

Nice product, good quality!

The copper end fell apart within one week of ownership. Terrible craftsmanship.

This is a good product. It has clear markings on the dibber showing the depth for planting and is made with quality wood. The only slight issue was that the handle was a bit wobbly which my husband glued in place. This is a quality product which I would recommend purchasing.

Quick delivery, looks really good and fit for purpose, bought as present.
