OBOSOE Emergency Folding Snow Shovel, Portable Compact Collapsible Aluminium Snow Shovel with Durable D-Style Grip Handle Suitable for Car, Truck, SUV (10" Blade)

Last year I didn’t have any shovel left in the trunk of my car. It happened one time it was a heavy snow. I wasn’t prepare for it. I had only a small brush for the windshield and the windows for my car. It took me amost an hour to dig my car out to go home after work. Exhausted! Finally, my friend recommended me this foldable mini shovel. I thought this would be useful. It’s actually metal not plastic. I gotta be very carefull using it and making sure not to scratch my car lol. So far, it didn’t snow yet. But always accessible when having it in my trunk. I also got a windshield snow cover. I’m not gonna be afraid of the snow storm this year!

This thing is CRAP (no, I don't usually talk like that about products on Amazon, but this calls for an exception). It broke on a cold, snowy night when I tried to use it for the very first time to dig myself out away from a curb.Sure, it was cold. Plastic (the handle) isn't as strong when cold. But complete failure as soon as I jammed it into wet snow? 100% unacceptable. Unless you're using this thing in the hot desert, I'd stay well away from it.It would get ZERO stars if such a thing was possible. This is a piece of safety gear. If you can't trust it, it way less than useless!

The shovel base seem sturdy enough, and folds into a nice size with a bag. The issue is where the handle attaches to the shovel, the locking system is merely a hex nut. Meaning every time you want to use it you have to have an Allen wrench to tighten it up, and then loosen up to fold it back up. They did not even include the proper size Allen wrench. That was not my issue though, I do not want to have to mess around with something when I am probably cold and my fingers are numb!

Living in snowy winters. Car often can get stuck in unplowed road conditions. This is why this can be an ever so valuable tool that could just get me out of those delicate situations. Once fold. It’s so compact that it could be stored anywhere in the car without losing valuable free space for other things. Easy to fold. Lightweight and sturdy. Package was delivered quickly and overall. Very happy with this purchase.

Great little shovel. Does not take up much space. Excited to try it out

Perfect size, durability and fast delivery!
