The weak link here is the cheap metal blade. I am on my second one. After 5-10 uses, the blade begins to fall apart (see images and Rust! Can't image a tool designed for water use would rust). The blade is not riveted or secured other than a few dimples.

Great shovel! Move tons of snow and you don't have to lift so it's ergonomic friendly. Try to find for less than 60 dollars tho. I've seen it priced well over 100.

I looked up the internet for something that can help me w shoveling snow I came across this. I ordered it online & last night I got to use it for the 1st time. Mind you I have a small snow blower, this sleigh shovel is fantastic I cannot believe this is only popular up there in our northern neighbors Canada. Not only doesn't it made me tired but I finished so much sooner I went to do my neighbor's driveway. I LOVE this shovel.

I tried this Sleigh Shovel as well as the Vertex Snodozer during our blizzard last week. The sleigh shovel won and it's cheaper and almost no assembly! A friend recommended it but I was skeptical. It's light but can move a lot of snow. I recommend starting along one side of your driveway to move one load's worth off and then moving the rest of the snow off via the cleared areas. If you have a downhill side to empty on that helps. We got about 1-1/2 feet and I (110 lb 62 YO woman) cleared our whole driveway (about 10 cars worth of space) all by myself in around 3-4 hours over 1-2 days.

Got this a month ago. Helps me move lots of snow without hurting my back. You can either tip it out or use your knee to lift and dump it. The metal along the front helps get close to pavement. Large volume improves efficiency. You do need to follow the instructions and not scrape it on pavement or it will deteriorate.

Wish I had this sleigh shovel years ago! Be careful - try not to drag it over anything but ice and snow or you will start to trash the plastic on the bottom. Awesome design! Can move about as much snow as my wheel barrow. This coupled with boots and ice cleats on + gloves - dare I say maybe even fun to move snow?! :D PS the sleigh design very handy - tilt up the metal guard digs in, tilt down handle, then the sleigh rides/glides over the snow or up the pile to dump. I usually use a quick forward, yank back to dump snow where I want.

This shovel works really well for cleaning my driveway. When the one I had broke after many years, I looked around to find another immediately. It holds more snow than other shovels and is easy to use to dump snow down the hill near my driveway.

This shovel was a joy to use!
I don't know how other people are breaking this shovel, but I just completed a long driveway of this one foot snow we received in the January 23, 2016 storm. If I could give it more stars I would. I am a 74 year old lady and shoveled a lot of snow in my 32 years as a widow. How I wish I'd have had this much sooner!
Here's the scoop: You just scoop the snow building up a small bank of snow (for dumping). Then as I shoveled I learned right on to leave a small layer of snow as the sleigh shovel does what it's supposed to, it glides on the snow. Then you head for the side snow bank and thrust the handle down so it slides right up the snow bank, then you simply dump it. I was easily able to wield the shovel with one hand.
The shovel is sturdy as heck!! This snow became heavy due to rising temperatures, but I was able to get huge scoops, even pressing the shovel on with my foot.
I never tired out, didn't have to stop and rest and my back was spared all the pain of past years. My arms were not sore the next day. I can't say enough about this shovel. BTW, I have a gravel driveway.

The sleigh shovel makes snow removal much faster and easier. The only thing to watch out for are unevenly joined sections of pavement when pushing the shovel along. Also, delivery was much sooner than initially projected and was included in the price.

This is a great shovel, and I would recommend it to anyone. I have a very long driveway and wide open parking area. This shovel has allowed me to clear the snow much faster and easier compared to my traditional snow shovel. It is more fuel efficient than a snow blower, makes use of my wintertime fat, and will work during the zombie apocalypse.

Saves the back
This is a great tool to remove lots of snow - especially when it is wet and heavy. Just fill it up and slide the load to where you want it. No lifting. It saves the back.

Great snow country shovel
My 75 yrs old very active husband loves this shovel. Our drive is long enough that we have to plow it, but for everything else this is the best shovel. You never have to pick up the snow and throw it. Just slide and scoop it up and tip. We live in snow country and have tried many many shovels. Shoveling out the mail box after the city plow has been through is so much easier now, just scoop, slide and tip. This product is a winner!!!
