Most silverline stuff are guarenteed forever and it usually says in the sticker, problem is you spend more time taken the shite back for the replacement than its worth. Its a bit odd though as some of their stuff aint that bad.

they will get you out of the shit,but dont rely on them the shaft is made of soft wood and break easy.

mind you at £5 youve been done, you can get them for £3

It looks alright,,,, Now if you want a shite spade that wont last a day out go to wyevale garden centre and get one of the vintage ones.

I got a vintage one, has been fine to me I have dug quite alot with it too had it about a year.

 

I dont use it anymore as I prefer the more bulldog like types, better for chipping away at hard soil.

 

 

Luck of the draw I guess

Well the one i got as a replacment one i was using it today to dig to my ferrets and it snapped in half, the wood they use it shite,, I can honestly not wait to get in that store tommorow.

 

You should of seen the shiteness of the ones on the shelf,,Bolts missing, wobly etc. Luckily i always take a spare fold up army spade for emergencies.
