Snow Joe Shovelution Strain-Reducing Snow Removal Shovel, Spring Assisted Handle, 18 Inch

This was really good to use for soft snow but when it was a day after, the snow was very difficult to move and the shovel cracked. It was otherwise a good purchase for softer snow but I would recommend getting a better one for harder snow the day after. I liked the second handle option to help lift the snow. It's great for someone who's not as strong and helps with your back.

I haven't shoveled for awhile as I had a torn meniscus, but didn't want to leave my husband to do everything this time - I ordered this shovel and it was SO easy! Maybe it had to do with it being a powdery snow that wasn't heavy, but I did a strip of driveway and ours %26 our neighbor's sidewalks in no time! Worth every penny!

Interesting idea. It DOES help you to throw the snow further without bending down. But the main handle (the part that is stiff) is actually kind of thin, so you can't really put strength on it to SCRAPE the compacted snow from the ground. So this is good for throwing fluffy snow quickly, right after it snows. But if the snow has been sitting out there for more than 1 day, then you would need to scrape more, and this shovel is a bit too flimsy to scrape the concrete. If you don't care about that, and you usually leave about 1 inch of snow on the ground anyway, then this shovel is perfect for you.

this review has nothing to do with the seller only the product.. shovels are loose fitting and wobble when trying to clear light snow the plastic is cheap and cracks under light load on the first day when moving snow less then 6 inches not a good choice for winter snow removal for older people the extra handle is nice but feels wobbly when picking up snow off walkway.

This item broke on me after the 2nd usage. I have used the Snow Joe bought in 2021 with no problems so it seems this newer model has subpar quality. I was also surprised to find that Snow Joe literally did not respond to my warranty inquiry and it seems they aren't honoring it.

Very well made. Makes snow removal much easier, I have had back surgery so the extra handle works great! i use both hands to push to snow across my driveway, then just grab the extra handle and toss the snow away. I don't have to bend down to grab the shovel handle down by the shovel. Works great! Engineered beautifully!

As a senior citizen I can't lift and throw snow over a snow bank easily until I got the shovel. Although I work slowly it's enabled me to shovel my entire driveway and backyard as well as the walkways. It's it's very comfortable and I feel like my back is protected. I can throw snow over the snowbank now they're getting high cuz we got lots of snow. Hopefully they'll melt soon.

The shovel really does its job for a small snow fall but, the blade broke during the first storm., The base also cracked. You get what you pay for is the only way to explain this.

my wife loves SNO JOE SHOVEL , no more back pain , and so easy to use. I worked 25yrs. in undergrond construction , wish they would have had shovels like Sno Joe. wonder how it would be on a square shovel or %232 round point ???

Easy to assemble and to use. So much lighter and easier to use than some others. Very happy with my purchase, made shoveling my driveway a little easier and done faster than my previous one.
