Overview
AMES 2827000 is an ensilage fork made to transfer loose material around the yard. A welded head is mounted to a hardwood handle that ends in a poly D-grip.
The wide head and D-grip make it easy to scoop and swing loose material, and hardwood adds strength to the handle. The light-duty rating is the limit, so heavy packed loads are not its job.
Who it's for
Gardeners who handle mulch and manure and want a light fork with a D-grip. Anyone breaking ground or lifting compacted material should choose a heavier tool.
Pros and cons
- Ten tines carry loose material
- Poly D-grip for control
- Light-duty rating only
- Color listed two ways
- Warranty not listed
Performance notes
A wide multi-tine head scoops light material in volume, while the D-grip gives a hand hold for control during each swing. The hardwood handle carries the load back to the head, and its modest build caps what each forkful should be.
