Does anyone have a Weed puller? Ive seen one by Friskars and I really want one as i'm quite tall and weeding really hurts my back. However as they are not cheap I'm not sure if I should go to the expense? Has anyone used one of these or know of a better one?

Many thanks

I bought one from QVC programme on tv, It's called 'Grandpas Weeder, and they are brilliant for getting even tough weeds out, no bending, or kneeling, they are brilliant. I bought one and posted it on my photos and another couple of members landed up buying one, and they agreed with me too. I think it was something like £15.99 plus P&P. I will check on that and come back to you. I certainly recommend them. Be back soon!

I was looking at these in the Garden Centre yesterday, although I am not tall, the cost put me off. I will monitor all your responses before I commit :))

Back again . Ive just checked and the price was £15.56 plus £4.95 P&P, but really worth it. If you go onto my blogs I have one on March 25th and you can see other members remarking on them. I have also put photos on demonstrating it. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much LS. I actually went and bought the Fiskars one. I ended up getting it for £22 because there was a special event on so I got lucky. I 100% agree these things are AMAZING! It just drags all the weeds out no effort involved, I love it! I may follow your link and get one for my Mum because I got the last Fiskars one today and as they usually cost between £30-£40 that will work out cheaper :O)

Scottish...................go get one as quick as you can they're fabulous!

Misscupcake...my mother told me that my son had seen them advertised and was going to buy me one as a christmas gift. I had better keep on kneeling 'til next year lol!!
NP: Your comment reminded me of the time I had a kitchen designer in to plan my new kitchen...he asked if I had a dishwasher and I told him I did, he asked what size. Expecting me to say 600cm, I asked my mother to stand up so the gentleman could measure her!!!! lol Lucky she had her sense of humour with her that day x
