Tools and Hardware Reviews of Fiskars 9653 Post Hole Digger

Customer Review: If you want to go DEEP, this is it!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I put this post hole digger to work the day I received it from Amazon. You truly can dig a 48 inch hole with no problem, plus I didn't think it weighs anymore then the wooden handled type. Five stars all the way....

Customer Review: Not all it's hyped up to be
Summary: 2 Stars

According to most of the reviews of these posthole diggers, they are the best there is. The ad claims they are factory sharpened to make digging easy. Well, this is pretty far from the truth. The ones I received were pretty dull, the ends had about a 3mm rounded end, which didn't dig very well at all, so I sent them back. If they were as sharp as a shovel, they would probably work pretty good.

Customer Review: PERFECTION
Summary: 5 Stars

WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG FOR THIS PRODUCT. PERFECT FOR SINKING DEEP POSTS. NO NEED TO DIG OUT THE SHOULDERS TO GO BELOW 30"

Customer Review: This product is junk, avoid at all cost.
Summary: 1 Stars

Unfortunatly I never got to use these post hole diggers. They arrived broken. I immediatly contacted Amazon who sent me out a new pair the next day,very happy with that. As a matter of fact that is only part of this transaction I am happy with. The second pair was actually damaged worse than the first one. Amazon refunded my money, minus the shipping charge which I think is complete BS. I had nothing to do with the item being defective so I fail to see how anyone at Amazon can be OK with keeping the $20 I spent on overnight shipping. BTW I had to contact Amazon before they actually sent my partial refund. An all around HORRIBLE experiance. I have been shopping with Amazon for years and have always been very pleased with their services. I really hope that this is an isolated incident.

Customer Review: Too Heavy - okay design
Summary: 3 Stars

Fiskars 9653 post hold digger - If you really need extra handle strength (rocks etc.) then maybe these are good since they are made completely out of metal tubes. I found them to be way too heavy for normal post hole digging. I could dig twice as much with a fiberglass handled pair of post hole diggers, simply because of the lower weight allowing faster movements and requiring fewer breaks for my arms to rest. The orange handle covers came off frequently, you should plan on having to glue them on. Fiskars design only allows maybe 1 foot deeper than standard. If you really want deep, look at a hand held auger design instead.
