Review on Bond LH015 Mini Handle Shovel by Daniel Mandal

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great shovel for kids/tight spaces. The blade measurement is NOT what most customers would expect (read the review for more info)

I give this product 5 stars because of the excellent customer service I received when I got the shovel have received. This is a very well made tool and if you are looking for a SMALL shovel I highly recommend it. It's also a great shovel if your daughter or son wants to "work" with you outside or create their own little garden. Tip: Getting them involved in gardening from a young age can make their lives more fulfilling. All that said, if you're looking for a sturdy shovel with a short handle and wide blade, you can find a slightly smaller blade. Working in retail and merchandising, I know the importance of providing accurate product descriptions in both print and online posts. The information contained in the Bond LH015 Mini D GRIFF HOVEL size sheet includes the convex/concave part of the blade compared to the measurement just above the blade. This creates the impression of a wider blade. Typically, customers measure across the blade and don't account for the extra inches that the curved portion adds. So when the shovel arrived they were disappointed to find a shovel with a smaller blade than expected. Since this particular shovel is listed as the widest shovel currently offered on the site, this is even more frustrating for customers. Size differences aside, this is a fantastic SMALL shovel for tight spaces or kids. As always, Revain's customer service has been top notch.
