This is more consistent with a honing steel than true sharpening. 4 to 5 passes isn't going to remove a meaningful amount of metal. If your garden tools are dulled or if there are nicks or damage to the blade, you need to be able to remove some metal to get sharpness back. This isn't going to do that. Furthermore, it requires a fair amount of skill to do this free hand and get all the angles right. It's not surprising to hear that people have ruined their tools with it.
For my regular knives , I use a WorkSharp MK2. However I found it also works great for sharpening lawnmower blades and a variety of other outdoor tools. I found it to be super easy and it produces great results without having to learn a challenging skill. It's pretty much idiot proof.
always happens on sd. I buy something and then start getting the product fed to me weeks/months later

Which works better?
How does ease of use compare?
I don't know how to quote two posts in this new UI, but the other guy who talks about this working like a honing steel makes sense. If you apply enough pressure to actually remove metal, then logically you would be removing it by pulling and ripping: adhesion instead of abrasion. I do own one of these sharpeners, and I've never felt like I've accomplished much with it other than "steeling" - which can produce results on these softer steels.
