I've dug 3 holes since I got this shovel and that is a lot more big holes that I ever could do without it. 2 times were happy times and my plants are happy but the 3rd time was unfortunately sad because I had to bury my kitty in the rain.
It is harder to dig in the rain because the wet dirt sticks to the shovel and makes it heavier so I would have to use my foot to get the mud off and then the step gets slippery but the shovel cleans up quickly. I don't recommend digging in the rain. It seemed more dangerous because of the slipperiness. But if you think you have to do it like I did then it still works pretty well.
Whenever my husband uses it he says that it is a good sturdy shovel. He uses it the regular way that I see most people use a shovel and he can dig a hole for me in like a minute or three. Very impressive to me but then again he is a man.
I like that this has a bigger step for me to use.
This is heavy but maybe that is a good thing.
The color of this is nice and it goes in the ground easy.
It has a coating on it so that it won't rust.
It seems like it will last a long time.
The best part is that I can use it myself when my husband is busy.
I'm glad I got it for it has been useful.
Update: It is now 2023. My neighbor borrowed my shovel and now it is broken. ;( I am sad.
It was useful a long while.

One of the standout features of this shovel is the fact that it is all metal. The blade is made from a thick, durable material that can easily dig into the toughest soil and move heavy loads of dirt and debris. Additionally, the handle is welded directly to the head, which gives the shovel an incredible amount of strength and stability. I've used this shovel to move rocks, dig holes, and even break up tough tree roots, and it has held up exceptionally well.
Another great feature of this shovel is its ergonomic design. The handle has a comfortable shape that fits snugly in your hand, and it provides a good grip even when your hands are wet or sweaty. The length of the handle is also just right, allowing you to use the shovel without having to stoop too much or strain your back.
Overall, I am incredibly impressed with this all-metal shovel. It is a well-made tool that is perfect for heavy-duty yard work. If you're looking for a shovel that can handle tough jobs and last for years to come, this is definitely one to consider.
This shovel is very stiff even when I put my full weight on it to pry dirt out of the hole. I do not feel like it will break. The wide foot pads are comfortable to jump on even in rubber boots with minimal foot support. The handles does not seem any longer than other standard shovels and is a comfortable girth and shape. The angle of the head is good. One of the only drawbacks I can think of is the fact that it did not come sharpened. This is a minor inconvenience that anyone with a little DIY skill can take care of. It was also poorly packaged and hanging out of the box a little bit.
On a funny note, it does conduct electricity. I was digging up a pipe in some moist ground when I lost my balance and by instinct grabbed for the closest object to steady myself which happened to be an electric fence that I have for my cattle. I got shocked both where I touched the wire and the hand that I was grounded through the shovel with. At least no one was around to hear me yell.
*** Update: I have been using this shovel for about three years now. It still is holding up. The powder coating has faded some and is no-longer glossy and has worn off on the cutting edge but who cares??? it is a ranch tool. I have continued to beat the crap out of this shovel, throw it in the back of trucks, jump up and down on it to drive it into hard ground and then lever on it with my full weight and I still have not even flexed it. I will take back part of what I said in my original review, it is a little heavier than a normal shovel but not much heavier (if any) than a heavy duty shovel. I am in the process of replacing a couple thousand feet of fencing. As I have been auguring the holes, I have carried two shovels on the tractor with me. I use a lighter one for clearing lose dirt from around the post holes but all the real digging has been with this shovel. In terms of garden or outside hand tools, this is by far the best I have bought. It is well worth the money. If I have not managed to destroy in in three years of farm tough use, it should last a general home owner a life time. If you need a heavy duty shovel look no further.
