I have rather small hands, even for a woman, some handles are very difficilt to grasp, what is the diameter on this handle?

I cannot give you any specific dimensions as the handle is contour for easy handling and gripping. However, I can mention that both the main handle at the top and on the canister have a nice textured rubber surface that makes it easier to grip the machine. Even if you cannot get your hand all the way around the handle, you will still have a solid grip just from the rubber surface on the bottom. Hopefully this information helps.

The lower part of the handle might be 0.75" but the middle section is no more than .5". It might be a bit too small to be held tightly in place.

Overall length is 18", handle length is just over 14", but the grip is edged for the bottom 5" for minimizing slippage.

The one I purchased does not have a handle. It is small enough for me to pick up easily.

I haven't been bothered by the handle length.My first one so I just accepted it and got to like it.The slippery handle was a problem.Someone on line suggested wrapping a couple of rubber bands around handle.Worked great.In fact the resulting wider grip is also a plus for me.

Sorry, I have medium size hands and don't have that problem, so it would be impossible for me to give you a helpful answer.

I will offer this suggestion: I cannot measure mine because I have already altered mine,but I found that if you(as I did) will journey to your hardware or home improvement store and purchase a commercial push broom replacement handle you will find that it fits very nicely into the female end. then add a small screw and presto! you got a spear. hope this helps.

the handle is a pretty standard thread size and is replaceable. My wife doesn't like to use this as the bristles are VERY stiff and inflexible.

I didn't measure it exact but the handle is about 5 inches. It works best with just one hand in my opinion. Hope that helps.

The handle is approximately 3 inches in length. It is a fairly short handle if you are large-handed as I am, but a comfortable grip if you don't mind a light handed grip on the end of the handle.

It would be approximately 2.3 inches. Unless you have very small hands it should not be too hard to hold. Tony.

I recommend that you buy a different handle. I never use it, and it's hard to use with both hands

I'll be going to a craft store some and I'm going measure the width and see if I can find the smallest but efficient handle. Wish me luck! Plus double Thanks for answering my question!

About 5 inches. You would need really small hands to get 2 hands on the handle in my opinion.

No, they will not fit a small hand. I have a medium-sized hand and they were too large to be useful.

Thank you criblover for raising the question and other for contributing your inputs. The wider part of grasper when gripping the handle is about 2 1/4".
