UPDATE: Awesome tool and very well made.
UPDATE: 4-Mar-2022<br />I’m still loving my sift. I’ve been using it since Jan and it’s still very sturdy. I LOVE the end result of the potting soil after being sifted. Even premium potting soil requires sifting when potting small plants or seedlings. This is a must have.<br />The photos show the potting mix as it came from the bag; the next shows particles remaining from the sifted soil (I use as mulch); finally the end result of using the sift-perfect potting mix!! As you can see, it doesn’t matter how ‘premium’ the potting mix claims to be, it still has too many large pieces for potting small plants.<br /><br />I wanted to get better potting mix for potting up seedlings without spending too much. The problem with potting soil available to me is the abundance of wood chips and sticks in the bag! Too many for seedlings to grow well at an early stage. This soil sifter was my answer. I like it’s simplicity and sturdy built. I read a review that said it was too heavy, which it would’ve been if I were to shake it back and forth loaded with soil. Instead, I move the dirt back and forth over the sift with my hand and it works great. It’s very relaxing. Perfect tool.  I use the mulch remaining on my beds outside, so nothing is wasted.<br />I’m able to sift the potting soil and get nice fluffy potting mix. I then add perlite, peat moss, neem cake (pellets) for fungus gnats control and fertilizer, plus mosquito bits which also controls fungus gnats, mix it al, up and store covered, until ready to use.  The sift makes it possible to get the fluffy soil I need! Great tool.
