Lee Valley Jekyll Weeder

The foot lever makes popping dandelions out of my lawn almost effortless, no bending or yanking required. I cleared a whole bed in about twenty minutes with zero back pain, which never happens with my old hand tool.

I've got clay soil that fights back, and this thing slices through it without me having to kneel down and yank. The handle angle keeps my wrist neutral, which my tendonitis appreciates. Weeding the whole bed took half the time it usually does.

The hooked tip pops dandelions out by the root with one quick pull, no digging or kneeling required. I cleared half my garden beds in an afternoon and my back didn't ache for once. The grip feels solid even when the soil's damp.
