For serious snow clearing
This is one tough snow shovel. It’s heavy gauge steel with a strong wood handle. But, it’s really only good for pushing snow around. Use this to push the snow along concrete or asphalt and then if you need to pile snow up, use something else. My last driveway was up against the house and I shared it with the next door neighbor. I had to push most snow the length of the house before I could pile it up. This saved a lot of time. On my new drive I can just push the snow off to each side - a task this shovel is ideal for. I use two shovels; this one to push the snow around and an aluminum “feed and grain” style shovel to move piles. Give it a shot of silicone spray before shoveling and the wet snow will peel right off. Much quieter than a blower and good exercise as well.
The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was that the rivets started to loosen after the first season - but after retightening them, everything is fine. You should also give it a coat of primer to keep any bare metal from rusting at season’s end.

Great Shovel
I bought this shovel for my husband for Christmas for our back yard skating rink we built this year. We needed something steel to move the ice and snow and help smooth the surface out….it’s heavy and does the job great. The wide blade makes for less passes on the rink and the weight of it is helpful. My husband loves the shovel and it works great for OUR BACKYARD NICERINK. Thank you

clean off the driveway in a hurry
if you get a light snowing(say 2.5 inches or less) this is the shovel to do the job. its very wide so you can cover alot of ground in a hurry. the only downfall is that due to its size it is hard to pick up alot of snow at a time. it is however very well made but it might be better to go with a 24″ instead.
