Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)When I first came across these, I thought they looked neat, and maybe they might not function so bad. The look had additional marketing appeal for my landscaping company, something to set us aside from others.
However, I wasn't really sure they'd suit a functional purpose, so I tentatively ordered the shovel to give it a trial run and to see if I could live with it.
I've since gone out and stocked up on all the NRG-PRO tools, their hand tools, and I'm looking forward to at least some of the NRG-STX series tools as well.
All of the tools have a great balance. They are easier to control and carry materials across distances ~ a simple open hand across the circular handle keeps them from spinning and dropping whatever they're carrying. I've also found the handle design helps keep them from rolling or causing too much trouble when toting them around across the arms of a wheelbarrow.
The nice green does seem to get dulled quickly from the mud and, even when washed clean, still loses that new-tool shine. The business end has no such problems and remains easy to clean even when it has a right not to.
I'm tall ~ over 6' ~ and I never thought I'd like the short handles on these, however, I've found they're more comfortable even digging down below grade. This is a bit of personal taste, as my son, slightly shorter than I, prefers long handled tools.
I've snapped several expensive, pro-quality forks, and have yet to manage to do any damage to this one at all. I've mistaken it for a prybar, and used it to remove rocks of a variety of sizes. I've also used it to remove about 30 or so square feet of hosta, two mature lilacs, and a mature rose-of-sharon. On one job, this fork moved upwards of 11 cubic yards of mulch... and those are just some of the highlights!
If I could only have two of the NRG-PRO tools, it would be the spade and this fork. I don't know if I could whittle the choice down to one, and thankfully, I don't have to!
