I've had them over a year now and they have seen a good amount of use. They were initally bought for my wife but after I used then a few times I began to really like them. The shaft is really strong so theres no worry about breaking and the handle is just great it makes it really easy to carry and is very easy on the hands. The main thing I had to get over was the colour but when your packing up all your tools at the end of the day it makes them really easy to notice so they dont get left beind.

My fear is that the round handle would encourage you to place your hands off to the sides of the tool where your wrist would be rotated and not able to use it as efficiently. But then again...
