KiKKA DiGGA Digging Attachment Pedal for Garden Forks & Spades – Reduces Back Strain

I love gardening, but bending over a spade for an hour usually leaves me in bits the next day. A friend recommended the KiKKA DiGGA, and it’s completely changed things. It lets you stand completely upright while you dig. You just use your foot weight to push it down, and the clever pivot pops the dirt right out. The foot pedal is nice and wide, so your foot feels secure and your ankle doesn't twist when you're pressing down. It takes a couple of minutes to get used to the rhythm of the mechanical click, but once you do, it makes digging effortless. Worth every penny to save your back.

I just wanted to let you know, I've dug over 2 tons of soil using this tool. For a middle-aged lady with an arthritis condition, this is no mean feat! How much does a yard of topsoil weigh? A cubic yard of typical topsoil weighs about 2700 pounds or 1.35 tons. A square yard of a garden with a depth of 1 foot (30.48 cm) weighs about 900 pounds (410 kg) or slightly less than half a ton. The water content of the soil is assumed to be that of a moderately damp (e.g. freshly dug). That I've dug so much, speaks volumes that it has paid for itself. Brilliant - I'd never have been able to do that using just a conventional fork. Last year in lockdown, using the original Kikka Digga, I dug a small pond and an entire border, planted 40 cabbages, sprouts and broccoli; carrots; onions; leeks; potatoes and asparagus. A welcome and mood lifting supplement to our lockdown food supply. This year I am planning on digging over the lawn to lay gravel so I have enlisted help and I have now received the new 2021 version as an upgrade. I have to say I am very impressed by the new "lever" screw fitting which is much easier than the original knobs for painful hands (though they gave good grip, anything that is easy on the wrist really helps!). It is a very good idea. At a time when paid gardeners are hard to come by, and we have to do it ourselves or endure virtual monkeys swinging from the trees and tigers in the long grass as the garden becomes so overgrown (!) due to the awful relentless hot wet weather we've endured - this is an absolute backsaver. Thank you!

Easy ordering, fast delivery, as described and seems robustly made. Very easy to put on and take off for swapping between spade and fork. There are 'wings' on the fastening bolts so no need for spanners or tools to tighten them. I was a little sceptical at first but wanted to make garden and allotment digging easier and quicker so decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did as it has made the tasks much easier to accomplish with less back strain. I wouldn't use it for trying to break up hard, compacted earth as I wouldn't want to break it. Very happy with this purchase and it seems a fair price for what it does. .

Basically this works well and enables me to loosen the ground to a full fork’s depth without having the bother and effort of lifting. Rotavator can then break it up later to a sensible depth. The trouble is that on my fork anyway and probably most others there is too much side to side play no matter how tight the bolt is. Similarly the lower bolt lands on a narrow round bit of fork at quite an angle so inevitably moves. I am hopeful that my packing out the gaps between the apparatus and the tool with heavy plastic will resolve both issues. See photos of my solution. It certainly makes it easy to break up the ground.

Really well made and feels solid - proper sturdy stainless steel and you can tell it's built to last. Love that it’s British made too – always nice to support UK manufacturing when you can. Unfortunately, it didn’t fit my garden fork (Roughneck one) – must be one of the very few it’s not compatible with. Bit gutted I didn’t get to try it properly, but from what I could see, it’s a clever design and definitely looks like it would take the strain out of digging. If it fits your fork or spade, I reckon you’ll be impressed! Just double check the sizing before you buy.

Looks like a good idea to prevent back strain through digging but in practice : 1. It was hard to figure out how to attach it - flow diagrams are not enough imo, 2. The extended 'foot' was positioned at right angles to the shaft meaning the user has to twist his ankle at right angles - if you have an ankle injury it would exerbate it. The video shows a seasoned gardener with no ankle injury. 3 . The item was awkward to use and the loose foot clunks around as it is not secured. IMO the product needs a re-•think. I disconnected it and used my lighter std stainless steel fork . The test took place on my allotment which I have gardened for about 10 years until I had a stroke two years ago. Things like weeding are a bit difficult now.

Easy to attach and release. Works equally well on Fork and Spade. Thoroughly recommend this product. I am a female in my middle sixties with an allotment to work, and it has halved the time it takes me to prepare beds for new produce. Very happy with this product.

I have a back and knee problem and was thinking that I should probably give up my allotment. In desperation, I searched for something that would help me. I found this item and thought I’d get one to see if it would be any good. I have to say that I am amazed at how much this has helped me. It was easy to attach, and made the digging so much easier. It definitely took the pressure off of my knee and back. I really do feel confident that I can keep my allotment now for another year. Very pleased.

ottimo prodotto, non facile al montaggio dal momento che bisogna cercare sia un bastone sia un forcone che si adatti alle dimensioni dello strumento; difficilmente da ancorare alla base del forcone ma si può avvitare all'altezza massima lo consiglio ti aiuta davvero a vangare il terreno con la merà della fatica
