As a disabled person who is getting into gardening, most of these would make my life 100% easier. If not more.

I'm a little conflicted...you are digging in nice, soft raised bed soil......it seem like all easy digging...try those in an area that hasn't been worked yet...

The power planter is worth it. ESPECIALLY the Laura version. Saves my injured back as does the grandpa’s weeder. The less I have to crouch on the ground, the better for me.

I do just want to note that these weird items can really serve people with mobility or motor function issues, whether it be illness, age, comorbidity, these are some really great options. Especially for a carpal tunnel girly like myself. Cannot justify the mask though lol

I bought those gardening gloves for a costume I was making, but got the chance to use them on a gardening gig, removing some invasive bamboo. I found they worked very well at scraping the top layer of soil to expose the runners, and once that was done I could pull the whole plant up in one go. A harder tool like a trowel would just cut the roots and make it harder to get all the little pieces out. They're good for light-duty tasks which require manual dexterity.

I have a mini chainsaw, of a different brand, and I DID hurt myself. The good thing about it is once you let it go, it stops. I was cutting a branch that was wobbling and it kicked back and hit the pinky on my left hand. 5 stitches later at urgent care! Yup, be careful. Now when I use it I put both hands on it. It is much more stable and safer in my opinion.

When I had a debilitating L5/S1 disc herniation that kept me from being able to touch my toes, let alone get down to the ground to weed, the Grandpa's Weeder saved my sanity. It was slow going (as was EVERYTHING during that time) but it allowed me to get outside, be in my yard and still feel like I was accomplishing something. As the name suggests, it is not a speed weeder. I nick named mine the Thistle Enilator due to the fact that it pulls the whole root out and I don't have to grab onto the thorny things! Still one of my favorite tools for certain weed removal.

Most of these are adaptive tools for people who might have movement issues or are doing a TON of manual labor.
