Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this last winter because I had been out of town during some snowfall and returned to find an inch-thick layer of ice on my driveway and steps. A regular snow shovel didn't even make a dent in the ice.
This tool actually does the job. I lift it up about a foot, then just let it drop down onto the ice, and the weight does the rest. Some days it works better than others, but basically if I chop parallel to the edge about 5 inches in, then continue parallel, the ice comes off in little squares about 5 inches across and an inch thick. Sometimes it requires multiple hits, and sometimes the ice does not detach from the surface of the driveway, but in general it works slowly but steadily. I used it again this winter after our New England ice storm, and it cleared the steps without too much effort.
I used the tool the way it came. The blade is not especially sharp, and I have not tried to sharpen it (I don't own a grinder). It might work even better if sharpened first.
