In this video I compare the Lesche vs Garrett Digger. Both are similar in price, but boy what a difference. The Lesche is made of tempered steel while the Garrett is as well, but it’s thick, heavy, and just doesn’t compare.
Garrett is an American company with a great tradition in metal detecting, but they had this digger made in china and I honestly think they should revise it.
I have the Garrett and it is indeed very heavy for the size of it. Used it 1 day and already the case has been damaged by the blade – not good quality at all.Jesus wept. I couldn’t live next door to people shouting at each other – it would do my head in.
Lol, my neighbors sound like that sometimes. Mainly kid playing, which I don’t mind.I have both a Lesche and a Garrett digger. I won the Garrett, so it didn’t cost me anything. I find I like digging best with the Lesche, especially when the ground is dry and hard. I do like using the Garrett when the ground is soft or wet, and I need to scoop out soil.
The coating on the Garrett digger is to stop it rusting in the shipping container from China ! I am in the UK but will buy US products because I believe they are very good quality, I have AT pro.
You make me laugh. Thanks for the comparison.
Nice video please subscribe to our channel
Thanks for the heads up on the diggers I know which one I will be getting now.
Lol 2:33
You need dig a big hole and label, red necks only, thank you
Nice video man very in depth information and I agree the Garrett digger is junk, I like their detectors but they sold out on the digging tool.
I bought a lesche for 35$ and it’s awesome. The thing is I bought it as an UPGRADE to my Garrett because it snapped in two( I was prying a rock with it)
I bought the piece of crap gator you get from Kellyco, its dull thick and the rubber handle is torn because it kept sliding up when I was using it. Thanks for the heads up, I also like the Garrett products . And I was thinking very hard about purchasing the Garrett digger. Not no more thank you very much. Who wants to go from bad to worse. Thanks for the video really appreciate it .
can you order the lesche with a black handle or did you replace yours?
Is the Garrett at pro made China? If so I’m not getting one I’ll keep buying tesoros. Thanks for this video I was almost going to buy that digger. Not now I’m anti China. Why can’t China make anything good always junk.
I have both the Garrett and the Lesche and agree with your review. I’ve already bent the Garrett several times and had to straighten it. The Lesche makes cutting a plug so much easier, the only problem comes when you need to shovel dirt out of the hole. I’ve just started using my hand get it out now and that works pretty good.
how much does tle Lesche digger weight?
Thx for this nice review , going to buy the Lesche
I got the Garrett for free. Only reason I got it. I took a grinder to sharpen the blade. The rubber on the handle is terrible. Doesn’t last one day of using.
great review, You think the Garrett is worth $20, I bet you can find it on Harwin in Houston for $5. Its not at Harbor Freight so you know its really super poor quality China crap. I am surprised at Garrett for for putting their name on a piece of shit, they should fire the idiot from marketing who was in charge of its production.
