Review on 🧩 Plastic Shovels by Mattys Toy Stop by Kevin Overturf

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Don't be fooled, it's just another cheap plastic toy... and overpriced.

Just received today and very disappointed. Description and ratings tell how strong they are. I was expecting thicker and more durable plastic. Less toys. That's the thickness of a cheap sheet of plastic. I can easily bend the butt of a sheep with my slender hands and have no problem imagining it breaking in the thick, wet sand. I wonder why such rave reviews? Maybe they're good for the sandbox, but then I remember paying $15 for them! It's crazy about plastic shovels that are just one tier higher than those in a sandcastle set. Our local hobby lobby sells these items for around $8. I can buy a real metal shovel for less. Very disappointed and confused by all the great reviews. Maybe they used to be cheaper? If they were I wouldn't expect so much and maybe I could understand. Now I'm going to Coles to get that wasted money back immediately.
