Rolling Garden Work Seat

The Rolling Garden Work Seat (also called a Scoot or Caddy) allows one to carry out many gardening tasks from a seated position, eliminating the need to squat, stoop, kneel, etc. Most models consist of a height-adjustable, swiveling, ergonomic tractor-type seat on a steel-tube frame set on four pneumatic- or solid-tired wheels. Locomotion is by ‘foot power’ and steering generally by a T-handle or steering knob. Many come with either bucket, basket, or tray for the produce, debris, and/or tool/supply storage. Optional accessories include such items handle extensions and attachable cart.

Cost: $60-$130, depending on sizes, accessories, etc.
