I bought this because I needed a hoe that would break up very hard packed soil (in in New England, and the soil is rocky and root infested), not be too heavy to use for an extended period, and be a comfortable length (I'm 5'6"). This hoe does the trick. It's light enough to allow me good control so I can use close to plants and the blade has held its edge.

A friend of mine let me borrow a garden hoe like this one and I just loved it (it was quite old). This Ames product is a disappointment. It is very hard to get the same results as from the one I borrowed. I really have to push on the Ames product to get it into the dirt and under the weeds. I have asked my friend to sharpen it for me. Somehow I did not expect to have to improve the product's performance.

The dual action garden hoe works exactly as advertised, although the blade on each side of the hoe could be a bit sharper. But that is easily solved, I can sharpen it myself. Sure helps shorten the time in the garden!
