 Good value and a light shovel Feb 01, 2009
By M. O'Hara

The shovel arrived promptly with free shipping--my idea of a good deal.
I found the shovel to be much lighter than my aluminum ones, and this quality helped immensely in shoveling my long driveway. I wasn't sure if the tip of the plastic shovel head would last, but I was able to wedge it under ice and snow and lift fairly easily. I don't believe it will last as many years as the metal snow shovels, but I can see getting six or seven years out of it. Where I live we get about three to five snows a year that require shoveling or blowing.
 One year later, the blade is shredding Jan 31, 2012

Bought this for the 2010-11 snow season. We got slammed up here in the NE, and my little house on the hillside was constantly buried. It stood up well during that first winter's use (and it got some hard use here!) When we put it away for the season, the shovel looked in great shape, especially given the abuse. Not a crack to be seen.
But now one year later, the plastic blade is just disintegrating. I've used it twice, and the edge has cracked and shredded more each time. I don't know if it got too hot in my garage tool rack, but it just won't make another snow fall, never mind another season.
Other than the blade's durability issue, we really liked this shovel. The steel handle really stood up to pushing some heavy, wet snow (the handle is STILL in excellent shape, not a dent or bend anywhere) and overall it was very light-weight and easy to use. Not for use chipping ice of course, but can really take a heavy load of snow.
Looks are deceiving Mar 04, 2011
By Michael G. Kaloyanides
Though at first glance this shovel looks flimsy, it is actually very durable. With huge volumes of ice and snow this past winter, I used the shovel with very rough handling, pushing and banging my way through ice crusts with absolutely no complaints from the shovel. My comments apply to both the push and non-push version of the Ames True Temper shovel.
Lightweight shovel- good value for money Jan 31, 2011
By amazondotblonde
Great shovel for light snow and good value for the money, but the plastic is too flimsy to use for any heavy show or to get under any ice.
