Guide Review - Radius Pro Weeder Ergonomic Product Review
The Radius Pro Border Weeder is a great mechanical weeder. You can grip it on the edges of the circle handle and give the tool a good twist to loosen the weed's root and then tilt the handle down to pop the weed out of the ground. The round handle also gives you a better grip when thrusting or pushing into the ground.Much like the handheld Radius Garden Weeder, the blade of the Radius Pro Weeder is fork pointed, thin and strong so it can slice into the ground and through roots without disturbing a large plot of land.
There is a slight bit of flex in the shaft where the head is pinned to the steel shaft of the handle. But it took more force than a wooden handle could take and it showed no problems with handling more.
