Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Pros: The Wovel makes for fast, easy and efficient removal of snow. I can clear my drive faster with the Wovel than my neighbors can using their snow blowers (and it seems that they work harder trying, wrestling their snow blowers!). The folding design of the Sno Wovel is wonderful! It only takes a minute for me to disassemble and hang on my garage wall (so it also saves floor space over a snow blower). It works so well that I've started letting my 6 year old daughter clear away light snow (1-2"). Cons: While clearing some snow I hit a patch of ice, that unfortunately has chipped a 2" chunk out of the middle of the shovel. This has also caused a 2-3" vertical crack. I would definitely recommend buying the available wear strip, which in my opinion should have been included with the shovel by the manufacturer. Very disappointingly, Structured Solutions II does not sell any accessories on Amazon so I would have incurred additional shipping costs buying the accessories from a different vendor (which I should have done, because I now have to buy a new shovel blade & a wear strip). I'm sure that there is some reason that the Wovel uses a plastic shovel (cost?), but a metal option would have been nice (at least that's how I'm feeling right now, looking at my broken shovel head). Other notes: 1. Buy the accessory Wear Strip. You'll be glad you did. ** 2. Buy the accessory Ice Blade. 3. After you get your Wovel, put it together right away. Assembly can take a little while, so don't wait to put it together when you actually need it. ** UPDATE: As Mark N has pointed out on 12/15/2014, the Wear Strip is now included in the standard Wovel Package.
