  • Works until breaks

    Sorry to give this a one-star rating. I used it for about 15 hours at the most, and loved the way it pulled up the Queen Anne's Lace weeds that I am trying to rid from my rose beds and surrounding areas. It got most of them up, tap root and all, in one try, and usually a second go would get the rest of the root if the first time was not effective. It was a pleasure to use, I would go out for what I thought would be an hour before or after dinner to plug away at the weeds, and I would forget the time because it was so easy and effective...and then the bottom fork, that acts as part of the pincher mechanism and is a fulcrum for the whole tool, broke off at the narrowest point. If there were a heavy duty extra strength version of this tool, even at a heavy duty extra high price, I would buy it, because of its ease of use and effectiveness, but at only 15 hours of use I can't recommend it.

  • Used, but a great value

    The weeder is well built. No plastic parts. All moving parts work as they should. It does the job it is intended for. It's slightly harder to use than another brand but it may just be me. A little more practice may improve my technique.

  • Perfect for prairie restoration

    I use this for a specific purpose -- to remove invasive species from a 100 acre restored prairie. It's lightweight so I can carry it easily and strong enough and designed well enough to lever out species with 6" taproots -- particularly 'goatsbeard.' If it works for me on the prairie, it will work on the lawn. I like the 'eject' feature, too, so there is no bending down whatever. Takes a little getting used to in order to develop a technique. I place the wide side of the jaws over the plant, step on the lever to push down into the sod, and then with my foot on the lever, rock it back a forth first before giving a slight twist to the handle to 'lever' it out of the ground. I remove hundreds and hundreds of goatsbeard plants in 2 hrs. Used to use a spade, but not anymore.

  • Great yard tool

    Looked at this and the Fiskars- this one definitely the better of the 2. All metal construction and solid as can be. Weed removal is exceptionally easy and simple. Able to remove dandelions, etc. in less than 10 sec/weed so it definitely has my vote of confidence

  • Yard Butler Rules!

    The yard Butler has helped me drastically in my backyard. No more bending over or hands & fingers getting sore. Works best in damp/soft soil small or tall weeds it can pull them all. With the push of the spring loaded ejector the weeds go flying off!

  • Its a good thing!!

    This is one of the first items (gadgets) that I have purchased that if used per the instructions does actually work! I have had mine for about two months and am amazed that it gets most of the dandelion root especially after a fresh rain shower and the ground is softer and moist. It does leave a hole but that's just an aeriation hole!! Am well satisfied with how it works!

  • Awesome!!!!

    Awesome tool works exactly as described. We have had many of these and this one is all metal and so there is no plastic to break when you put weight on the pedal. I can not use one hand, so this item can be operated with just one hand.

  • Well-made Tool

    Works as advertised; really not much else to say. I have used it in all types of soil and even rocks. It all depends on placement and angle. I'd definitely recommend and buy again, should this weeder ever break.

  • A great improvement on an old model

    Years ago I had one of these and loved it. It had a wooden handle and no ejector plunger. Tickled to finally find this item.
