HiHydro Soil Sampler Probe 12 Inch Stainless Steel with 2 Pcs Reusable Sample Bags, T-Style Handle Soil Test Kits Soil Probes for Soil Sampling Plant Care Garden Lawn Farm

I’m a professional crop consultant and take over 2000 samples a year and this is my third one and this is my favorite hand probe it’s light and fairly sturdy with the nice wide foot peg so I haven’t had tendinitis since I started use this one they last 1500 samples (~15000 plugs) usually then wear out as expected in my sandy soil and not worn bad just barely measurable amount it just doesn’t hold the core in dry sand as well when it starts to get worn out but still works great in moist or heavy soil

I purchased to pull soil samples from my yard without making holes with a shovel. I pulled soil from 16 areas and left no trace of damage to my turf. It's built well, sharpened on the end, which makes it easy to push into the ground. The large T-handle makes it even easier to push down and twist to obtain the best sample at your desired depth. Soil stays in the tube by design, so when you pull the probe from the soil, you do not lose your sample. It functions perfectly. Would I buy another...no, because this is built well enough to last my lifetime. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who needs one.

Works perfectly as intended, I was able to pull various plugs from various areas in my lawn in order to send out for testing.

Llegó todo bien, muy buen servicio la herramienta funciona bien y muy práctica en campo

It's sometimes hard to get the dirt out if the ground is hard, but it works better than the shovel.
