Review: Great tamper, did the job. - Had no access for anything more mechanical, so used to level ground when landscaping garden. Hard work but good weight to do the job and cheaper than hiring machines. Came ready to use and have lent to several neighbours who had small ground to cover. Sits in the corner of the garage and doesn't take up too much room. May seems like common sense but those not used to working with a tamper, if you value your toes wear steel toe caps. It's heavy enough to hurt when accidentally let go of, let alone putting effort into it. Ouch.
Review: Made a great impact. - Does exactly what a roughneck tool shuld do. Nice wide base. Good weight, absolutely solid, feels indestructible. I used this to pack down a small crush and run base where a whacker plate machine would have been unsuitable. It did the job great. Was delivered next day, but in a huge box which felt unnecessary although I found a great use for the big box now. Handle is nice and grippy too. Overall great value for money, just don't hit yourself in the shin with it ! I rate this 9.5/10 for value for money and robustness.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it be used to prepare a area for fake grass ? I have stone down atm was going to put sand over the top then grass just need some advice**
A: If by prepare you mean flatten the surface; then yes, it does the job. Good robust tool, I used it to flatten hardcore before laying slabs, did the job well. Recommend it.

**Q: Would this be okay for compacting sub base**
A: The weak point is at the base of the handle, as I found out when the tamper was used on some uneven ground with some large flints. However some duct tape came to the rescue. I wouldn't recommend it if you have a large area to crush.

**Q: What is the handle length?**
A: Total length including handle and  base plate handle holder is roughly 43 inches.  Handle length above where it joins to the holder is roughly 39 inches.
