Cuts Through Large Branches Easily
August 20, 2023

As seniors' hands weaken over time ratchet pruners are the answer! Not only does Garrett Wade offer top quality pruners, their advanced ratchet mechanism, bright colors that are easy to see amongst the plants, and secure belt holster all add to this wonderful pruner!

Odd Job To UK
August 14, 2023

Having discovered that Garret Wade do not ship to the UK, I manager to find someone to take delivery of the Odd Job in the US and then ship to the UK. The Odd Job was a birthday present for my father, who as a cabinet maker by trade, was not aware of the Odd Job and he was thoroughly surprised and enthralled with it and has been putting the tool to good use.

One good and one bad product
August 14, 2023

Nail clippers are excellent, well made and functional. Knife was not so good, the handle was poorly fitted with an area that had been filed down, and pin rivets protruding to cut your hand.

Pretty and functional
August 12, 2023

I gave this galvanized watering can as a gift to my sister in-law. She was extremely happy with it, said it was well made and very useful in watering outdoor plants as it holds a good amount of water. It's her new favorite. It was shipped quickly and arrived in good condition.

High quality item, fast delivery

Site is simple and clear. Products are obviously evaluated by the company--nothin cheesy, cheap, or trendy. The business end is as thoughtful as the products. Discounts are available allowing the months and years of my orders to provide free shipping plus an additional award (without having to meet a price target each time I fall for another item.)

Smart purchase!
July 13, 2023

Everything was as pictured. I am not an experienced handy woman, so I love the individual drill bit containers labeled for the type of material they work on. They are compact and don't take up a lot of room. Love them!

Experience with Garrett Wade
June 9, 2023

I have ordered items from your catalog for years. Your merchandise is first class. Imagine my dismay when this past year I found out that you do not ship to Alaska. Putting Alaskans all in the same jar is a mistake. Residents of Ketchikan, Alaska's most southern city is 1000 miles from Alaskan cities in the northern part of our state. We are closer to Seattle Washington, and you mail to them. I am so disappointed in this decision to lump us all together as we are such a massive state with such differing mailing outcomes. I have already easily found another company that doesn't discriminate against Alaskans.

Dear Martha,
We actually do ship to Alaska. We're sorry that you were given this misinformation. For further details, please call our customer service team at 1-800-221-2942. We appreciate you as a customer and sincerely apologize for the confusion.

If you are one whom likes quality tools or items which are one of a kind, this is the company to take a look at. I love unique and well made tools that I can't find by other means. From exceptional 19 ft pole saws, interchangeable pole saw/pruners, unique pruners, lovely unique gifts to great wood working glue; I have found an array of superb items at great prices. At 70, a woman, I love nice sharp saw blades that take down branches with ease. Garrett Wade has a little of everything. I can say that I am very pleased with the items I have purchased and I am going to have fun taking down limbs this summer. Quality items. Highly recommend taking a peek.

Good products, good service
April 17, 2023

I've purchased several tools from Garret Wade and been very happy with the quality. After a recent issue where I was unable to obtain a discount on an on-line order, their customer service rep contacted me and issued both the discount and refund on a second item. Her personal emails were immediate and much appreciated. I will continue to order from Garret Wade and won't be shy about contacting Customer Service if I have a problem.

We have issued a refund in the amount of $15.08 (10% off the item you ordered, and a full refund on the extra item you needed to order). Please accept our sincerest apologies. We truly appreciate you as a customer! Thank you so much for your order and your patience.
