Does the job--keeps my knees out of the dirt.... - Review written on June 09, 2008

I have a hard time kneeling in the dirt for extended time periods. Hard to get old, I guess. My mom had one of the little garden stools years ago. Don't know what happened to it, so I got this one. It does keep my knees off out of the dirt, but I was disappointed in a couple of things.
It works great when weeding in grassy areas, but the tires just don't get traction on cement. I have a couple of flower beds in my front yard, where we have sidewalks. Can't use this thing there, as the cart just takes off from under me when it's on concrete. This happens when I lean forward. So this has become my backyard stool.
It's easy for your handtools to fall out of the storage compartment. It's shallow, so my trimmers won't stay in it when I pick up the stool. Also, the seat doesn't lift up to place utensils in the compartment, so you have to put them in from the side, and that's just a tad awkward.
On the positive side, the stool is lightweight--easy to move. It's like a lttle Tikes toy, cute.
