Please be careful buying these

I originally got this product to hopefully have some fun this summer on the beach. I wasn't too worried about the reviews on here because most of them complained about the packing and that was it.

The product however is really poorly made and expensive considering the finish of it. The toy is full of jagged edges that tear at the skin and break it open I still have a mark where I used it a month later. And the pressure all transfers against your arm instead of your hand. (Picture attached is 1 day after use)

I don't know if this would work for a child with smaller hands/arms but mine really aren't big I actually have small hands for a guy.

If you plan on getting these anyway I recommend you get something moldable to put over the jagged edges

Cool product for young boys
by Rhonda M. (5 out of 5 stars)

We got this for our 4 year old nephew who is "all boy." He loves all things construction, big and small. This was a HUGE hit with him, once his mom put her arm in and showed him what it did. He was ready to open it even before all his other gifts were unwrapped. Needless to say, it went on the moment he was allowed and he went right to his dirt pile. It looks totally cool on too, like a robot hand. Other reviewers reported there were sharp edges inside; I checked ours and it was real smooth. It's very sturdy as well. We are really pleased with this product and the price is good. If you have a boy who loves construction toys and such, he will love this.

Great idea for little diggers
by Ullanta (5 out of 5 stars)

This is a pretty simple and slick idea. I loved to use it from the start; it took the boys (3 years old) a little while to get used to the idea, but now they love it, too. They can be a digger! A backhoe! I think also that the joint was a little tight when first opened, such that i could flex the bucket with one hand, while the boys couldn't... but after some actual sand play, it loosened up so that they could as well.

Not only is it fun, but it's really improved the boys digging efficiency. Projects are completed in much less time! It scoops a big scoop!

Robot arms or diggers
by Renée Reads (4 out of 5 stars)

I bought these for beach toys for my 7yo son, 8 yo nephew, and 4 yo grandson. The grandson absolutely loves them. He likes to wear them around as "robot arms". They don't get much use at the beach because the amount of sand they move doesn't seem that satisfying to the bigger boys although it kind of works. Probably good if you have a kid that is into construction equipment or possibly a different type of sand. They are large enough for me to put them on as well.

Little guys can't keep their hands off this digger!

I knew we would spend lots of time at the beach this season, so I got this for my 7 year old son and 6 year old daughter. They love to make moats. Not castles, just moats.

Anytime we are with friends, the younger kids flock to this toy. It's unbelievable! Fortunately my son is great about sharing.

I'd say the perfect age range for this one is about 3 to 8.

I only got one, but it would be super fun to have two of them, one for each arm.

Perfect for our trips to the beach!!! Almost one year old and still going strong. If you have a little construction worker, this is a great buy!!

Another conflicted review in my collection
by some guy (2 out of 5 stars)
May 26, 2013

I'm buying a lot of products lately that have great design, but bad materials or great concept, but not quite there.

This is yet another one of those products that leave me conflicted. The concept is just great, but when I put my hand in to test it, I was almost cut by some of the sharpest plastic edges. I mean so sharp that I think you could actually cut yourself. That said, the design was so cool, that I went to the trouble to break out the dremel tool and sandpaper and spend a couple minutes cleaning it up. I'm not sure that most people will want to go through all that, but I was willing to. I will be contacting the company to let them know what I think, but just be warned about the edges.

I have questions as to how well it will hold up, but I will report back after it gets some good summer time usage at the beach.

Fun at the beach for the kids.
by HJC (5 out of 5 stars)

So much fun for the kids on the beach. Highly durable, they stood up well to 5/6 year old usage. No metal parts so there's no rusting from water or salt air/water from the beach. Sand particles didn't slow down the movement at the hinge that much. They're not as efficient than a shovel, but they are 1000% more fun.

Not made for a child's hand or strength.

This did not come in a box. I am a female adult and I find it hard to work, so I know my grandchildren will not be able to work this. It is made for an adult hand.

Uncomfortable to use
by D. Arnett (2 out of 5 stars)

Cool idea but too many sharp edges, making it uncomfortable for using very long. Stick with a decent (large capacity and stiff, not the toy shovel that will come with a sandbox bucket) salt-water resistant scoop or hand shovel (in other words, something not metallic.)
