This scraper quickly and easily clears snow and ice. I'm very impressed by the design. The pivoting "Y" blades mean you can clear ice in both directions. For the thicker ice, the blades lock forward for reinforced scraping, and for the thickest ice, the wide blades lock back to expose the shorter front blade for concentrated ice breaking. I was sick of plastic scrapers breaking and chipping and this brass-edged scraper is the solution. I doubt I'll ever need another ice scraper, and I plan to give these as gifts next Christmas. I highly recommend this item
I was looking for an ice scraper that would not fall apart after the third use, and I finally found one. It isn't the cheapest in the world, but it is the sturdiest I have found. It is great getting the thick and thin ice/frost off your windows. Don't wait. get it now and be ready for next fall and winter. It is a must have for those of us that live in the snow climates.
