AMES 2825800 Action Hoe with Hardwood Handle, 58-Inch, Steel

I purchased this as a gift for my husband. He grows a decent size vegetable garden and is often fighting weeds. He says this is the best hoe he ever used and especially likes that he can weed close to a plant without harming the stock or roots. The hoe is sharp, flexible, and does a great job.

I do a lot of gardening and have a couple of Ames products.The AMES 2825800 Action Hoe has a sturdy hardwood handle and a head that slices through weeds without moving a lot of dirt around like a traditional hoe.I use this to make precise borders around my flower beds.It does the job quickly and powers through even tough roots. Recommended.

Love this tool! It makes it so easy to stay on top of the weeds. The long handle makes it easy on your back and the blade just glides through the dirt to cut the weeds off. I was using it in my yard and my neighbor asked what it was because she wanted one! I've read reviews of other brands of these loop hoes and the criticism was the metal bolts broke easily. The Ames hoe is well made and easy to use. Fabulous product!

This is a game changer. I would spend more time than I wanted picking weeds in my veggie garden. I saw a post that a friend put on Facebook with his well groomed garden. I commented and asked him how he has the time to get his garden looking magazine ready with a job and small kids??!! He sent me a link to this tool and said it cuts the weeds like butter, you live them on the dirt to die and that's it! So I bought one.IT'S AMAZING AND WORTH THE MONEY!!!

OK, I admit it. I was looking for a tool like this, but didn't know what it was called. Then, I saw "hula hoe" and just had to buy it. 1 star just for the name. 🙂The other stars are for the item itself. It works as expected. I had a yard full of weeds, some of which were through the gravel. The tool worked better on shallow-rooted vegetation that had some height to it than it did on deep-rooted short weeds.Big dandelions - this tool raked over the stems until they broke, so the roots are still there. It pulled the roots up on the smaller dandelions.Oxalis - this hula hoe made quick work of them; definitely got some roots out on most of them. It did shred the plants a bit, so I probably spread some weed seeds that I'll have to get at later.The low ground cover weeds (I'll update with the name if I figure it out) were hard to remove, but flipping the tool over allowed me to scrape/slice them out of the dirt. That didn't work where the gravel was.All in all, it worked for what I needed. It was especially great for weeding under the thorny rose bush. I do wish that the hoe head was bigger so that I could cover more ground (that's why I took off 1 star). On a personal note, I found that the lower I bent over or semi-squatted, the better the tool worked. Then again, maybe that's the proper way to hoe.

I had an old hula hoe which I have had for about 15 years and was ready for replacement. This is great for getting rid of weeds in your flower bed or any type of plants. I love it, great for weeding, pulls weeds right up. Could not find in any hardware storer so had to order on line. They used to carry in the hardware stores but I can’t find anymore. This is the best tool ever invented for weeding.

This Garden tool is my favorite. Well made and easy to use. Wish I would of had one these sooner. What used to take me days of weeding my garden just turned into 3-4 hours and Waaalaaa. I had fill my X-Large yard waste cart full to the top with grass and weeds. Thank you Ames. You make a Great Product

Okay, I am getting older (kind way of saying old)and getting up or being on my knees hurts and isn't the easiest on some days(most). I really like the weeds out of my garden. This tool does a whole bunch at time shortening your weeding time to be sure. I think you will be pleased with this purchase, I bought two, one for the front and one for the backyard.Saves your hips and knees. Also, I get dizzy sometimes(that age thing again!) so no up and down or falling over weeding anymore for me!Worth every penny!
