This is one tough trowel! I broke my old one and needed a replacement so I started looking at the options on Amazon. This one caught my eye and the price was right so I decided to give it a try. Yes, it is stainless so I don't have to worry about it rusting like my old one. The handle is cushioned enough that I can use it in really hard soil and still maintain my grip and not hurt my hands. The blade is just the right width. Not too wide - that would make digging in tough soil difficult. Not too narrow, so I can really move a goodly amount of soil with each scoop. This is excellent for all common garden tasks - potting up plants, digging in plants, light cultivating, etc. The only negative I can think of is that it is made in China. Too bad we can't make something like this at a decent price in the US. Still, it is the best trowel I've ever used.
