Overview
A snow shoveler worried about back strain gets a spring-assisted handle that helps with each lift. Its blade is poly, and the handle combines aluminum and plastic with an ergonomic grip.
The spring in the handle is the reason to look at this shovel, since it is meant to take some effort out of every lift. Blade width is modest, so a big driveway means many passes.
Who it's for
A homeowner with a short drive, steps or a porch who finds ordinary shovels tiring. A buyer with a long driveway, or one who prefers a metal blade, should consider something wider or tougher.
Pros and cons
- Spring-assisted handle eases lifting
- Aluminum and plastic handle
- Poly blade will not rust
- Weight shown differently in two places
- Assembly tools and steps not listed
- Blade width suits small areas
Performance notes
The spring stores some energy as you push and gives it back as you lift, which is how it reduces strain on the back. The poly blade is light and rust-free but can flex on packed snow. Blade width sets how much snow each pass carries.
