   The problems with this weeder are visible in the picture of the item.

   First, there is no strap for hanging it on a hook on the wall of our gardening shed. This should be included at this price. We had to improvise one.

   Second, the upc sticker is right on the wood handle and its a bear to get off. This should be attached in a different way.

   The tool itself does a good job of weeding.

   I have owned (too) many of these weeders over the years because I lose 2-3 per season. They are very functional, inexpensive tools for weeding in your flower bed. There are better tools for removing weeds from the lawn, however,.

   My beef here is the product posting itself. What is the product…wooden handle or metal handle (actually the model I’ve purchased before looks like the photo and had a resin handle) as both are mentioned in the write-up?

   Now the pricing…I just purchased the “wooden” handle model from a local hardware store at the everyday price of under $3. So what’s up with the nearly $8 price from Amazon, especially if delivery is not free.

   By the way, the large box stores no longer carry the model(s) described in this posting. They only carry much more expensive and elaborate models (eg, ergo design with shot absorbing gel handles…oh, come on).
