      A:  I think you will notice the curve in the shaft will accommodate your size, in fact being smaller is even better because you won’t have to bend your back at all Sharon!!

                    Q:is the shovel metal? my last shovel was plastic with a metal handle and it broke around the screws that attached the shovel to the metal handle

                    Answer This Question

                    A:  No, the shovel is plastic. The one I bought only lasted through a couple of snows before breaking where the handle attaches. I loved the handle but would not personally buy this one again due to its disposable nature.

                    A:  As you can see, the handle and shovel are plastic, but the handle bar is metal. They do have a straight blade (not scoop) that is metal as well as the handle bar if you prefer. I have them both.

                      A:  The blade and yellow handle at the end are plastic, the gray shaft is steel. We’ve had one for several years and it’s been very durable. The only wear is right along the front edge, but that’s probably because I’ve used it to break up ice on the sidewalk.

                              Q:How is it on your back in heavy wet snow

                              A:  You will have no problems using this shovel.

                              by|Dec 4, 2018

                              A:  Snow shovels with an ergonomic handle like this one help to reduce lower back pain and strain when shoveling all types of snow including heavy wet snow. The ergonomic handle allows you to position the blade of the shovel nearly parallel to the ground for shoveling or pushing snow without having to bend your back as much in comparison to when using a snow shovel with a straight handle. The ergonomic handle allows you to use more proper body mechanics to get adequate leverage for shoveling snow to reduce the risk of straining your lower back by allowing you to use your arms and shoulders to lift snow and your arms, shoulders and hips to throw snow instead of relying on your lower back as much. I was skeptical initially of the benefit of using snow shovels with ergonomic handles, but after using snow shovels with ergonomic handles for many years find that using snow shovels with ergonomic handles causes far less lower back pain and strain in comparison to using a straight handle snow shovel. Please, always take precautions when shoveling heavy wet snow especially the deep heavy snow that is often left at ends of driveways after a snow plow has cleared a road or street to avoid the risk of overexertion and other health issues including a possible heart attack. Heavy deep snow needs to be removed in smaller amounts per shovelful versus attempting to remove too much snow at a time in each shovelful to avoid possible health issues based on your overall health.

                                by|May 5, 2023

                                A:  This is great because there is less being hunched over with the curve. That curve is what makes this a great product. Not to mention this brand is heavy duty. Worth every cent. You get this one and they have one that’s wider and more shallow for cleaning up and good for like plowing. I have both.very happy with both!!

                                  A:  It's pretty good on its own, but you can also add an ergonomic handle - like the Trentco ProHandle, to make it even easier on your back if you want.

                                      by|Jan 31, 2019

                                        A:  When the snow is heavy and wet, I normally just push the snow to the area I want to leave it. I have picked up heavy snow with this, and the shovel does well. When I have picked up heavy snow, the shovel part hasn't cracked or bend. I push the snow to protect my back.
