...Helen Yemm, tested this spade for The English Garden magazine; here's what she wrote:

"Another spade with an excellent boot-saving lip. I find Sneeboer's hand tools good, but this ladies' spade, with its small stainless steel head, although exceptionally sharp, was heavy and straight. The long 106cm (42in) ash-wood handle is suitable for either sex and is clearly designed to be used lever-style, to save your back."

• ...Sneeboer Large and Ladies Spade: Build Quality ****½, Value for Money ***, Aesthetic Appeal *****
"If you went into a blacksmith's forge and asked for a spade to measure, I have a feeling you would leave with something similar to this. All the individual welds that have gone into its construction can be seen, as well as all the polishing and filing marks that give the spade a smooth finish. Add to this the fact it has the longest handle of all those tested and I am in seventh heaven!"
- Spades on Trial, Grow It Magazine, September 2008

• ...The length and weight of this 'ladies' spade will actually suit most people more than 5ft 2in tall but men may find the T-shaped handle and blade rather small. Provided you haven't got big feet, opting for a small-bladed spade like this one can be a very good idea as you'll be less likely to try lifting more soil than you should. None of our testers experienced any aches or pains when using this spade - in fact they rated it very highly for comfort"
