About This Product

Weeds come in all shapes and sizes. The unique gripping action of the Rocket Weeder pulls out even the biggest toughest weeds, root and all without damaging the surrounding turf or ground cover. It actually grabs the weed without breaking off the roots, while the ergonomic handle does most of the work by simply rotating the weed and root up out of the ground. The ejector button deposits the weed where you want it and keeps your hands clean. Weeding has never been easier or more satisfying.

Highlights

  • Great for eliminating the biggest, toughest weeds
  • Rocking action grabs the weed and gets the whole root
  • Eliminates the weeds without chemicals
  • Easy ejector handle pops the weed off the tool - keeps your hands clean
  • Ergonomic handle provides maximum pulling action and is easy on your back
  • Guaranteed forever

Questions & Answers

My question has to do with what do you do about the hole it leaves? I feel it is a perfect spot for more weeds to seed.

Answer This Question

Just step on it to pack the hole. If your weed has seeds cut it off before pulling out weed.

    After I pull the weeds, I fill with a mixture of seed and soil. Give it a good watering for it to settle. New grass grows in no time!

      Are you implying your yard is so smooth a weed seed will not take hold save for the hole this tool makes?

          It is made of metal, got a really good weight for pulling weeds. Not too sure what kind of metal. It has a nice paint on it so i dont think it would rust.

            How long are the actual blades?

            It is rounded prongs. No sharp edges. Just pressure from you poking it into ground and wiggling it down closes the clamp which cant go too deep as the foot petal touches the ground and opens the prongs. Wiggling will jiggle the pring to close.

              They are not blades, more like rounded prongs. About 2 to 3 inches long.

                About 3 inches--- remember to step on the side handle and it will go lower.

                  It is doing its job and once you get used to it is pretty good at getting out the bigger weds like Sandspurs…however it can take two or more tries to get it all out. Ir does help save my back though as it loosens the root and youn get the stubborn ones with a quick pull by hand. Overall helpful

                    product was quite difficult and awkward to work; didn't go very deep into the ground, didn't even cover the root of a small crabgrass weed. had to dig two or three times to get the weed out. more work than it was worth. also, the delivery box was concocted to fit the weeder and was left sticking out of the top. surprised it wasn't broken.

                    Works on shallow roots well. Needs longer blades for the stubborn ones. The plunger works to clear the weed out most of the time. A bit heavy and foot lever is pointless.

                    Built very solid and works great. Was considering the Fiskars model but wanted something that wasn't plastic and didn't require bending over at all.. Kids enjoy using it so much I may have to buy another one otherwise they fight over taking turns. I wish the handle was a little bigger and some grip material added but not enough to deduct a star.

                    This weed puller did not work. It would get clogged up with dirt and only occasionally would remove the weed. I will be returning.

                    This weeding tool is very user friendly. It will pull up the hardest weeds in my yard. This is a lot better on your back than bending over to pull up weeds by hand. I wish I had this five years ago!!! I would recommend this tool.

                    This weeder did not come with instructions so i used it how i thought it should be used. I thought it would be good for someone with bad back but you still have to bendover and twist it. Cant pull weeds smaller than 1/2 inch root base. I bought it to pull knot grass in my lawn, i dont like poison and you still have dead knot grass all over the yard.
