This is the third brand of roller I've purchased and is hands down the best! The first one I bought, Garden Weasel, didn't sell any kind of dumping mechanism so you had to pull the tines apart with your hands. The handle was too short, I'm 5'9. And you really had to push down to get the apples in the basket.
The next one I purchased, the Nut Gatherer, from Amazon has a pop of lid on the side for dumping. It's mostly plastic and didn't even last one season.
Now I have the Nut Wizard and I LOVE IT. The handle is plenty long enough. The construction is wood and metal and very solid. All I have to do is roll it over the apples with about the same force as pushing a vacuuum. And dumping it is a breeze. I picked up a full wheelbarrow of apples in less than 40 minutes and my grass is about 6" tall. I plan to order more so that my kids can help as well!

Worked like a charm! Saved my back from picking up hundreds of large pine cones from our Ponderosa Pines. A whole day’s job became only an hour. Worth every penny-

Love this thing! Went together in seconds and I collected large pine cones on about a quarter acre pinecone-riddled mountain yard in about 30 minutes total. Used the spreader tool with a large trash can lined with a bag and I was all done in minutes. It was actually fun and it worked so well and easy. Great tool!

This thing is a life saver!

An excellent tool, it really picks up pine cones. Highly recommended.

De-coning an acre of front yard filled with Ponderosa pine and Douglas fir trees with wicked senses of humor used to be a 5 to 7 day task. I just cleared almost a quarter acre in less than 2 hours (3 x 35 gallon bags full of cones so far).

I must, I really am impressed, and pleased.

Works great, love the size

So, I have a major problem in my yard with Seed Pods from American Sweetgum Trees! The little brown balls with spikes on them! I have been thinking about what would work best to control this problem as my lawnmower could only get so many! The Nut Wizard works great! It’s still work but nothing like it has been in the past! Thank you for making this!

It made me laugh the first time I used it.. makes a painstaking process incredibly easy!

I wish I had found this years ago it works even better than I expected

This is our second nut wizard. Works faster with two people to clean up the lawn
Love it. Thanks

Ordered two handles and the mini Nut wizard basket. Received all that I ordered, however the mini basket was to include the bail arm as shown in the picture, it was not included and had to order separately. So far have had to purchase mini parts separately as the complete Mini Nut Wizard is not available yet! Waiting for thee mini to come available so I can order another complete one! Thank you!

Thus is the second nut wizard we have purchased for our 10 pecan trees. The first one was 15 years ago. Very nice product. Works well and made here. 5 star product

I bought a replacement Nut Wizard that I am not using. I am using a prior replacement Nut Wizard. The Nut Wizard works well.

I had my doubts but still decided to get one to try. With this tool I can collect a bucket full of gum balls in half an hour easily.
