These Charlie Dimmock (endorsed) gardening tools have been around for a year(?) at Poundland and are robust and good quality. I never looked in this gardening section until today when I needed one. The ones on display have hammer finished epoxy coated heads with wooden handles. . Although standard price as £1, but fabulous value considering this level of robust quality tool is at least a few quid each elsewhere in gardening centres and DIY store.

Is that because its Charlie Dimmock branded items ? I suspect Poundland agreed a deal with a wholesaler or the producer of said items to buy x amount to sell for £1.

I think Tommy did a range of endorsed stuff here as well.

Usually best to use something for a while before you declare it "robust".

I wonder how many over the years put Charlie Dimmock and Tommy together.

I've bought their garden tools in the past. They are robust and good quality. If anything this range looks better. Great deal.

Hammocks more likely.

the ones I had do not work in hard or clay soil - they bend out of shape.
once the thin coating cracks, the cheap metal immediately corrodes and breaks.
had to buy proper steel ones.
buy cheap - buy twice.

Sound advice, what's the make and cost for the one you recommend so others may consider as well?

Go and have a look in a proper tool shop.

How much would one cost at such a tool shop, could help folks to decide whether to go to one to buy? As I think the type you are referring to is £10 plus.

My understanding is that with China having massive overcapacity in low quality steel and iron production even at a £1 (make them for 33p?) there might be some quality there ? Or are these disposable gardening tools ?
