For lawn and garden digging, the key decision is often how the shovel's handle and foot-placement details fit the work you expect to do. These two Landscapers Select open-back shovels take different approaches, while their listed prices are separated by just $0.67. Focus on the configuration that matters most to you rather than expecting price to be the main divider.
Quick verdict
Choose the Landscapers Select Shovel with Open-Back Blade and 47-inch Ergonomic Fiberglass if a 9-inch cushioned black grip is a priority. Choose the Landscapers Select Digging Shovel with Open-Back Steel Blade and 30-inch D-Shaped if its 30-inch D-shaped handle is the more appealing format. Both are listed as new Landscapers Select hardware, but their handle and blade descriptions point to different preferences.

Where each product wins
47-inch Ergonomic Fiberglass Shovel: grip-focused choice
The 33260 stands out for shoppers who want the named cushioned black grip as part of their digging-shovel setup. Its description specifically calls out a 9-inch grip, making it the more direct match when hand contact and an ergonomic-oriented presentation are central to the decision.
30-inch D-Shaped Digging Shovel: steel-blade choice
The 33275 is the direct pick for anyone specifically looking for an open-back steel blade. That wording is explicit in its title, and it separates this model from the other shovel's more handle-centered specification.
Product notes
Landscapers Select Shovel with Open-Back Blade and 47-inch Ergonomic Fiberglass
This model is suited to a shopper weighing handle design alongside support underfoot. Its oversized steps are described as adding stability and leverage, giving the 33260 a concrete reason to rise to the top when that detail matters for planned digging tasks. It is a new Landscapers Select shovel identified as model 33260, with UPC 755625012265. Its limitation is the USD 49.30 listed price: it is the higher of the two listed prices, even though the separation is narrow. Make it the pick for its named step arrangement and ergonomic fiberglass-handle specification rather than because it has the lowest listed price.
Landscapers Select Digging Shovel with Open-Back Steel Blade and 30-inch D-Shaped
The 33275 is a strong fit for shoppers who place emphasis on its foot-placement and blade-finish details. The large, forward-turned steps are described as providing leverage, while the powder-coated blade finish is presented as a durability-oriented detail for frequent use. This new Landscapers Select item is model 33275 and carries UPC 755625012418. The limitation is not a dramatic price separation: at USD 48.63, its listed price remains close to the competing shovel. Choose it because its step design and blade-finish description align with your priorities, not because you expect a wide difference in listed price.
Final choice by use case
- Pick model 33260 for the 47-inch ergonomic fiberglass-handle specification and its grip-oriented setup.
- Pick model 33275 when the powder-coated blade finish is the deciding detail for your digging-shovel choice.
- If price is your only concern, the $0.67 listed-price spread is small enough that the handle and blade descriptions deserve more weight in the decision.
