Works real good with just the stub handle and rope

I gave this product as a gift to my dad that lives 3 hours from me. I can’t give a review for myself but I can say my dad loves it.

Product works great. Purchased the longest handled version and am able to mix and match sections (including capacity to throw out a 4’ section on a rope) to progressively cut through deep thick pond weeds. The flat angle of slicer works great when navigating pond’s floor...doesn’t get caught on rocks. Retrieves large swathes of pond grasses. Am still working through the best strategy for dumping pond grass off tool vs pulling off with hand, but have some ideas. Neighbors who have other tools have come over to see this in action and we’re really impressed with how well it works on our shared pond. Thank you for thinking outside box when designing!

We spent the summer waiting for the weed ripper to be available again. Living in Colorado it’s difficult to find pond tools locally. This was our last hope for removing weeds in our pond. The weed ripper worked perfectly and quickly removed a summer’s worth of weeds that we couldn’t control any other way. Highly recommended.

I have purchased many different products over the years (as much as $2000 for one). NOTHING equals the ease and effectiveness of the weed ripper for removal of bottom weeds/rushes. As an added bonus, removal of weeds from the device is easy. I also appreciate that there are no sharp edges or teeth , reducing risk of injury to my grandchildren or myself. Superior product.
