Promising review: "We bought this to plant all our herbs and are very happy with it. The depth allows for a decent amount of soil which is good for deep roots and it's big enough to hold all our various herbs.

All our herbs are doing great this year." —Vince

It's supportive, cushioned, wipes clean, and has a carrying handle. Definitely worth your time and money." —Aiko

There is no pressure or stress on my back although I do have to lean over to pick the weeds up off the ground when they slip out of the prongs sometimes. My biggest weed problem is dandelions. No more sitting or kneeling in the yard with a screwdriver for me. Leaves a relatively small hole in the yard depending on the size of the weed. I love it so much I bought one for several members of my family. Highly recommended!" —Mary

And you'll have peace of mind knowing there's a five-year tool warranty and three-year battery warranty.

Promising review: "I absolutely L O V E this mower. It's so much lighter than my gas push mower. I have a neck injury so I'm limited on how much weight I can handle. I opted not to get a second battery since I need to be careful about overdoing things. Anyhow, I mowed about 1/2 acre before the battery died...which I call a mandatory break. My neck or back didn't hurt at all. I am so pleased with how easy it is to start and stop this mower. No more pulling and pulling until your arms worn out, just for the gas mower to die out anyways. Even if your not injured this is the lightest, easiest mower I've ever operated. I'm 64 years old if it helps you any with your decision making process." —auiloks
