Bought this to plant daffodil bulbs. Tools and gadgets ive used in the past always needed tiring effort to get the job done. But not with this. Im a lazy gardener, and with this drill thingie it was brilliantly easy.. Pop it in your cordless drill, bore out a hole in the ground, plop bulb in, fill in hole with the loose soil.. Easy peasey.. Love it.
This is a great tool for planting bulbs. Takes a bit of practice. Sick the bit into the ground and then stop it going deeper but keep it spinning, to break up the soil. Then stop spinning and pull the bit up. You should be left with a nice old. Plant your bulb then cover with soil.
Good value, work great in normal soil, slightly less effective in clay based soil. depending on use a good sturdy drill would also be a benefit. overall pleased with my purchase.
cant go wrong with this to be honest, new house with clay soil.. .this went straight through it and allowed me to turn the soil without the hard work of a spade all over, hard wearing and simple
The smaller one is fab, used for planting seed potatoes and bulbs. The larger one I found impossible to control. Used on 18v cordless drill. Guess this could be as I am quite weak, someone stronger would maybe be able to control.
The construction is robust and no sharp edges on which to damage yourself. I used an 18 volt Dewalt cordless drill to power it. You need to be a bit careful and hold the drill very firmly as if the auger encounters a big root the drill will try to rotate. You can overcome this by setting the ratchet feature on the drill. I used the low speed of the drill and started off very slowly. I have used it on loose soil, in a lawn, and on compacted clay, it worked equally well on all of these types. I was able to get between 80 and 100 holes in the clay (the toughest) on a full battery.
Um schnell ein tiefes und gerades Loch zu buddeln, sind diese Bohrer super. Man sollte allerdings eine relativ starke Bohrmaschine oder Akkuschrauber besitzen. Trotzdem muss man beim Bohren krftig dagegen halten, da es einem sonst die Hand umdreht. Trifft man auf Steine, leidet der Bohrer bzw. die Lackierung schon darunter, aber das war mir nicht so wichtig. Es ist ja schlielich ein Gartengert fr kleines Geld, was sowieso sicher nicht ewig hlt.
Trotzdem tolles Produkt, das auch in stark verdichteten Boden die Lcher schnell hinein zaubert!
Used this to dig holes for raised bed support posts in the garden. It struggled a bit as soon as you hit any rock bigger than an inch or two (the hole expanded a bit and had to be cleared a bit by hand) but made lovely clean holes where rocks were not a problem. The shaft did bend a bit once or twice near the drill chuck but could be bent back by hand well enough to dampen the worst vibrations. I only really bought this for the one job. I think I dug about 20 holes with it in some fairly demanding ground and it would probably do the same again before it gives up. It certainly made planting the posts much much quicker and they’re probably much sturdier than they would be if I’d dig the holes by hand. Definitely use a sturdy corded drill.
