Published on 29/10/2020, United KingdomThis does what it says it does. Comfortable to use. I have over a hundred daffodil bulbs to re-plant over the next few weeks so we'll see how it holds up after that.

Product information
Description
The Faithfull Essentials Long Handle Bulb Planter has a forged head with foot treads, manufactured from heat-treated (hardened) carbon steel to provide both strength and durability. The polypropylene and powder-coated finish provide improved resistance to rust, scratches, humidity and alkaloids in the soil.
The long T-grip handle is manufactured from tubular steel with a hard-wearing polypropylene coating, making it comfortable to use. It enables full control of the blade position to ensure a precise edge is created.
It has been designed for the professional gardener. Use for planting larger bulbs by boring a hole into the ground to the desired depth using the barrel of the planter, inserting the bulb and then placing the plug of soil back into the hole. The long-handled bulb planter will save your back as no digging is required and also allows you to penetrate through tough or firm soil using your foot to provide leverage.
Mainly used in September and October for planting spring flowering bulbs (daffodils, tulips, alliums, etc.) or in May when planting summer bulbs (gladioli, etc.)
Overall Length: 960mm

Published on 31/10/2019, United KingdomThis is a solid piece of kit, and I like the good-sized foot ledges for pushing the cylinder into the soil, but it is quite heavy. The handles are ideal, being wide with grips on the ends, so I can wiggle the cylinder down easily. The cylinder base rim isn't sharpened, but I don't usually plant bulbs when the soil is hard and dry anyway so it's fine for my purposes. For the money, it's solid and well-made, so good value.

Published on 17/11/2018, United KingdomGood solid tool. My only con was that it was not as sharp as I would have liked. It was quite hard work to cut holes in a grassy area but fine in soil. It is very good value for money. On the whole I would recommend this product.
