Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I live in Orange County near the foothills and have rock hard clay soil that somehow still welcomes in these mallow weeds with massive taproots. I am not even remotely exaggerating when I say that I can put on gloves, wrap my hands around the root, and lean my entire 130 lbs of body weight back and either a) make no impact whatsoever, or b) snap the above ground parts off, leaving the taproot to return to haunt me another day. My strong-as-an-ox husband has no better luck. I was very skeptical that this thing was going to do the trick. I mean, how could a 100 year old technology not be utterly ubiquitous if it works, right? WRONG. This is gardening's best kept secret. In a matter of maybe 5 minutes (I was just trying to test it out), this tool had cleanly popped out the entire taproots of dozens upon dozens of weeds, saving me hours of work and LOADS of back pain. I'd previously given up on an area of my yard, but I think maybe, just maybe, I might be able to take it back with my new secret weapon.
