If you have dandelions, this is the tool you need. We can dig up fifty dandelions in just a few minutes with ease. No bending or stooping. We have had a Weed Hound for several years, and recently bought two to give to give to family members. We highly recommend it.
Did not pull entire tap root 
2008-04-22
The Hound Dog would get the leaves and, if you aimed well, the top 1/2" of the tap root (Dandelion, russian thistle, burdock, etc). But it did not get the entire root, so the darn weed just keeps coming back.
I am still looking for a better weed puller, for now I'll contine to crawl around with my hand tools.
Does Not Get Root! 2008-04-16
I have used this on dandelions and it does pull off the top of the weed that is above ground but it does not remove the root! Looks like I am back to old fashioned hand tool to remove root.
The product has nails at the end that close together in the ground. They should have spent 0.30 more on product and used longer nails.
Too bad design of the product doesnt allow me to substitute nails that actually might work removing the root.
Oh well. Return of product to store coming.
The weed hound is no dog!

I can't beleive the weedhound works so well, its well worth the money. It worked so well for me that I bought one for my father's birthday!
It works as advertized 2007-10-25
I first was wondering how this thing can pick up the weed root but then it is easy and it works like a charm. However, if your precious grass is too close to the weed, it will also be picked up so just make sure you are as precise as possible when using it. I recommend it.

I borrowed one of these from a friend to pull the dandelions from my yard and I loved how effective it was. I had to buy one of my own. I've pulled weeds with roots up to a foot long - and I didn't have to worry about using poisins near my gardens. It does leave a hole but you can fill it very easily.
Only okay

Was fairly disappointed in this product's performance. Have to place it Just Right and soil needs to be Just So - otherwise wind up yanking away at branches of weed and not the weed itself.
Add me to Club Hound! 2008-06-04
I'm a novice gardener and have become the steward of a sadly overgrown garden. I bought this blindly after having spent a day kneeling and ripping up weeds by hand. I lucked out! What a great product. It's solidly constructed and has some real heft to it. I did have some issues getting used to how it worked at first. After a while, I got the rhythm and had a blast destroying unsuspecting dandelions and milkweed. I sure hope the neighbors didn't hear me as I laughed maniacally at the death of those weedy invaders!
Why knock off a star? I did find that a little twisting motion applied as I pulled up slowly helped to get the entire root system. I also noted that sometimes the hound got a little greedy at times and pulled up a lot of soil. I just knocked it off and pushed it back into the divot. And finally, the metal sometimes gets a little stuck and tough to release if I get a little to carried away with weed assassination. I really had to whack it to get it to work again- but keeping that in mind prevented further issues. I also bet I could squirt a little WD40 in there to get it moving again.
All in all- absolutely worth the money!

I think that this works great. I love it and have not put down any bad chems to get rid of weeds.
Hound Dog Dandelion Puller 2008-05-08
The design concept is good but this tool needs some reconfiguration before it's truly effective.
1. The pulling tines should be a bit longer. (They aren't long enough to grab on and pull up the whole dandelion root, even in wet soil.)
2. The diameter of the base of the tines (where they are mounted) needs to be about 1/4 inch more. (Would give a better chance of grabbing onto the root as the exact center of a dandelion is sometimes hard to eyeball.)
3. Shaft of tool needs to be about 3 inches longer. (So the tool-user doesn't have to bend over so much to use this thing.)
