It might work as a landing net, for algae the net is too coarse. These are 3 star. No rating for Produtktpräsentation. Unfortunately I have not been paying attention (and Amazon made it also not identified) that only the net, but no stem is supplied. I was somewhat taken aback, because without stalk is no landing net landing net. And then does the stem even in its simplest form twice the price of the landing net. Motto: ne brand purchase and pay the proper accessories. Goes back, though me watching the half product also costs 3 Euro Porto participation. Not so good, Amazon ....
