Powered Handheld Shovel with Auger & Safety Shutoff for Gardening, Landscaping & Planting - 12 Volt Battery & Charger Included

I'm 78 and done with shoveling holes in my yard to plant. This tool loosens the soil so I can just scoop out the loose dirt with a trowel and it's over! Not to mention the amount of time that I save. Great idea.

This Rotoshovel is awesome. It tears through my soil like it’s nothing. Dug multiple holes in under a minute each — what used to take 10+ minutes of hard work. Super easy to use, lightweight, and saved my back completely. Battery lasts well (20+ holes per charge). Perfect for planting and potting.

The Rotoshovel delivers exactly what it promises: power, convenience, and efficiency. The motor is strong enough to handle compacted soil, the auger design creates clean holes, and the rechargeable battery holds up well for multiple tasks. It’s perfect for planting bulbs, installing small posts, or doing quick dig jobs around the yard. A smart upgrade for any homeowner or gardener.

Our dirt is hard red clay, though this may be easier. Sad to say it was not, went back to my drill and large garden bit worked better.

This is a really helpful product for loosening soil and digging holes for planting. It is quite powerful and managed to loosen soil in my garden that hasn’t been turned in years. It even managed to cut through a lot of established roots that were in the way for planting new plants. One should be careful though, especially when the soil is very dry. The rotor action tends to send the soil and ant stones/rocks that might be present flying. It is probably a good idea to wear eye protection in that case. Producing holes for planting takes a little getting used to so that the loosened soil doesn’t simply collapse and go back in the desired hole. You just have to figure out the proper angle at which to hold the tool to keep the soil outside the hole.

I’ve been genuinely impressed with the RotoShovel. It turns what used to be slow, tiring digging into a smooth, almost effortless task. I love how easily it breaks through tough soil and roots, and the ergonomic design makes it comfortable to use for longer projects. It’s become one of my go‑to tools in the garden, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to make planting and landscaping more enjoyable.

This is absolutely the best garden tool I have ever purchased. I would highly recommend it to anybody who does even the smallest amount of gardening. I cannot say enough good things about it.

This is a great product and customer service is excellent!!
