3-2-2023 So we purchased our Snow Joe shovel in 2021 and until today had taken residence in our shed tags still attached. We experienced a very heavy and continuous snowfall for the past few days which stopped yesterday in the early morning hours. After watching this video a few times and with my confidence level high thought I'd take the shovel for its first ride. For me the "lift handle" was a bit unweidly although I continued use for appx thirty minutes. The lift handle became much too much for me to handle with any success and decided to remove it. Glad I did, and was able to easily clear several pathways. Appreciated your work to stage and shoot the video. Thought commenting here might help those also struggling as I had. Thank you.

Excellent explanation and excellent shovel - I got one 3 or so years ago and it is great for me being able to now move my built up snow piles I make with Double Shovel 'push' method - leaving big piles that NOW with this Shovel and can might man throw into the yard whereas 30 years of so before my lower back football disk blow out takes me out - and I'm strong athletic but all Roads lead to Rome - and no lower back - game over

I honestly avoid any shovels with adjustable parts. They dont hold up well in areas that get a lot of snow.
@TotalFreedomTTT-pk9st9 ай бұрын
Absolutely right - and the adjuster could be just the punched strap (10 holes) that is spring steel and you could have a stainless screw with a wing nut - or (and I'd pay $25.00 more) a "crutches" type push button clicker and have the strap have pre punched holes - it defeats the purpose if you have to bend - I'm about 5' 10" and that ain't tall so guys 6'0" over are gong to bend way too much - I just forget when it's warm to just lengthen the strap by ? 3" for me ? this thing is probably perfect for someone about 5'6" - maybe they could have the factory order with your Height - I will write Snow Joe I think - it was a big game changer regardless for me - blown lower back and I can move snow with this

I'm a Mainer, have lived in the Northeast all of my life and the Weather - HEAVY Snow, WET ICY Snow, Blizzards, White Out, Wind Blowing Biting Cold SNOW, Snow SQUALLS of all Kinds, can be so Brutal on your back, BELIEVE me ! Went to use my Shovel the other day and it was BROKEN of Course, Poor TIMING to say the least. Amazon shipped me my Snow Joe in 2 Days with Prime and it doesn't take the Winter Blizzards Away, but it sure does take a BITE out of Back Pain ! So much Quicker too !!! Thanks !!! Another Product too is the Snow Joe Snow Broom that all females or short ones should never be without. Great for cleaning off the vehicle in no time. Makes it so much easier on us. Got many of their summer gadgets too, but this Back Saver and Snow Broom for the Vehicle beats them all. Lots of products, check Snow Joe out now before the Blizzard or during Spring before Summer comes. Thanks so so much ! I love you Snow Joe !

The one big innovation we need with this Fantastic shovel is some type of handle button adjuster on the Strap length so that I could find the ideal length to my Height so that I'm pretty much standing up straight with - as you pointed out - no to low back bend - so it would be like Crutches or those click button adjusters - my strap needs to be about 3" longer But even Wolf D here should be able to push a button on the Strap handle and lengthen it about 4" since he looks taller - not complaining but it could be a major improvement since we've got 5'0 Women all the way to 6'6" guys

How is the plastic pan attached to the pole shaft? When I see other plastic pan shovels similar to that one it appears there is one screw attaching the pan to the pole. This makes me skeptical about the reliability. I just shoveled that heavy wet stuff yesterday and although I pushed for the most part I did have to lift and toss at intervals.

@TotalFreedomTTT-pk9st9 ай бұрын
The big thing is the spring strap is more there to hold itself up - you could find some springy strap - and tape one side to your shovel or drill a small hole with a screw - but the handle is important - you could use an old shovel for that - or just buy one - again - the strap length is a problem is you are taller than 5'8" or too short for it - it really should be adjustable but it is a great game changer when you use it - your back just doesn't bend at that nasty blow out angle - super innovation is why I bought (I also do DIY)

@@anitak5823 Ahhh ok... got'cha. Well, I'm over 6 feet tall, so with when it comes to bending over to shovel snow, it was a huge help for someone of my height (I say "was" because I'm living in sunny southern California now. :) You should forward that info over to the folks at Snow Joe. Maybe it'll give them the incentive to do some redesigning. Hope your back gets better soon.

You have to be sure to, essentially, pull on the shorter handle and push on the bigger handle at the same time. I'm 5'2" and very weak from cancer, this gives you much more leverage when scooping and tossing snow. You just have to get the hang of it.

I just pulled it out of the box and cleaned up the wet snow dump we had here last night. It's raining so extra wet. I'm basically working with the heaviest stuff out there. I pull up with my left hand while pushing with my right and I flip this slush like it's ready for some flavoring. I'm 6' 4" so maybe the Snow Joe only works well for a range of heights. An advanced model might include some adjustability to the spring side length. I would appreciate a few inches of length on that thing. Overall, way better than the standard issue snow shovel. These guys put together a good product and have an attention to detail, evident from the shipping configuration.
