Hello thanks for clicking on this video - I'm Neil welcome back to the Happy Hut because
today I'm unboxing this - it's the Fiskars XACT and it's a bit like the Fiskars W82 that
I unboxed - I'll put a link up in the top of the screen if you
click on the "i" there or in the description this works in exactly the same way I think
this one's a bit cheaper that one was about 40 pounds this was 25 pounds in Sainsbury's
of all places this is how it works just hoping if I can hold it up to the lens the right
way - when you push it into the ground the teeth are open you can see there are four
teeth and then when you put your foot down on the pedal it brings the teeth together
and then with your foot on this pedal, you pull it up out of the ground - I'm going to
show you what it looks like on actual weeds around the garden so this video might start
to get a bit dull after, after the first weed but I'm gonna see how many I can do on camera
So I'm going to start with the biggest one I can find which I think is this one I don't
even know what this plant is but it'd be a good demonstration so what you do is you try
to find the stem that's about there and then aim the Fiskars weed puller over it, push
down with your foot like that and you push it all the way down - and then when with your
foot on the pedal when I tilt the handle back it pulls the teeth together and pulls the
whole thing out by the roots like this let's see how this goes - I'm doing
it slowly and one-handed because I'm holding the camera.
There you go - big old root there - there you go.
And nettles... we've got a bit of a problem with nettles on our lawn let's try let's try
it on a nettle make sure that the teeth go down the stem I don't want to get stung
Alright so there's the nettle stem just there if I put the teeth of the Fiskars weed puller
around it- dig in - then pull up there you can see it pulled up quite deep on the roots
that's fantastic.
I'll try and do it with one hand - woah, there you can see that I managed to get this bramble
root down that far - okay let me show you on another weed here you can probably see
it just here, so if I can get the teeth around that and then pull back - wow look at that
one that's a good one.
Look how far down the roots it's managed to pull up - that's a that's a good one.
There's a link for where to buy the Fiskars Xact in the description under this video I
hope this video has helped if it has it would be wonderful if you could give me a thumbs
up just to let me know that it might have been of use and if it really helped it would
help me fantastically if you could click on the subscribe button also in the corner in
the description or my face at the end of the video.
I'm trying to get my subscribers to 1,000.
I don't think that's ever going to happen.
I'm on about 211 at the moment so 1000 subscribers feels like a distant dream but if this video
has helped you can help me by taking me closer to that goal, so really appreciate it and
if you have any questions leave me a comment or check out the other gardening tool links
in the description but I hope this has helped and thanks for watching.
