Product Description

SHOVEL SMARTER, NOT HARDER! Time to toss out the old shovels; back-breaking winter-weather cleanups are a thing of the past with the Snow Joe SJ-SHLV01 Shovelution 18-Inch strain-reducing Snow Shovel – the next generation in snow-clearing technology. Snow Joe's strain-reducing solution greatly reduces the effort, strain and potential injury involved in shoveling, using the powerful muscles of your upper body to do the lifting and throwing, and sending lifting leverage to the lower hand – to reduce back strain by up to 30%. Plus, Snow Joe's spring-loaded, ergonomic shovel grip captures the expended energy from the act of throwing the snow, to quickly return and reset the shovel, ready for the next load. Patent Pending. 2-Year Full Warranty. For storage - Make a loop with the retaining strap around the spring-loaded handle, and with the other end, secure to knob on the upper pole.

Customers say

Customers like the appearance, back pain relief, and ease of assembly of the shovel spade. For example, they mention it has a good design, it doesn't strain their back, and it's easy to put together and use. That said, opinions are mixed on quality and handle.

742 customers mention694 positive48 negative

Customers find the shovel easy to use. They say it's a great shovel to remove snow, with an extra handle that makes it easier to shovel heavy wet snow. The metal edge helps with shoveling, and the double handle is useful for pushing and lifting the snow away from snow mounds. It's also an efficient two-handed snow removal tool that helps with hauling heavier packed snow.

Customers are mixed about the handle of the shovel spade. Some mention that the second handle is amazing and makes it easier to lift and throw snow, while others say that it weakens the handle and completely gave out on the 4th use. The wiggly second handle takes some getting used to and is random and floppy. The additional handle feels a little flimsy and is annoying when it's not being used while shoveling.

"...It has a good balance overall, and the spring-assisted second handle creates a fulcrum so you can use both arms to lift and swing the load before..." Read more

"...It's not perfect - some may find the spring handle too short, and the aluminum blade isn't ideal for scraping ice...." Read more

"...The double handle is useful and helps you push/lift the snow away from snow mounds and the ergonomic design is good for not overstressing your body..." Read more

I remember seeing ads for this and skeptically checking it out, wondering if it’s a gimmick. I live in the Denver area and the amount of snowfall here doesn’t warrant a snow thrower for me, but we do get a couple of storms a year that make me wish I had one.Snow Joe shows up, we get our spring storms, and there is a substantial difference in how I feel after digging out the cars. I don’t feel completely wrecked after flinging a couple of feet of wet, heavy snow around.Man I’m sold.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps you from destroying your back
Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2023
Size: 18-InchColor: RedVerified Purchase
I can't say enough good stuff about this shovel. In the Pacific Northwest, we've had occasional snow days, but nothing significant enough to need a shovel—until about four years ago when we started getting serious snowfall that would paralyze entire cities (because we don't have any equipment or experience dealing with snow.) In preparation for more regular snow, I bought this in 2019, and thought it might get used once or maybe twice. I've used it multiple times to dig our household out of major (by PacNW standards) snow storms and it does an amazing job every time.

It's lightweight so you don't get exhausted swinging it around. It has a good balance overall, and the spring-assisted second handle creates a fulcrum so you can use both arms to lift and swing the load before chucking it into a pile. This allows you to clear even slushy snow without feeling like you're heaving bricks around. The blade is wide enough to clear a big swath of sidewalk or driveway in each scoop, but not so big it's unwieldy or hard to balance, even loaded with snow.

The shaft is strong and stable; you can push the blade along the ground to scrape up snow and ice without feeling like it's going to bend or twist, and the second handle is easy to grab to lift and toss the scraped snow out of the way.

My only suggestion would be adding a catch to the shaft to connect the second handle for storage to keep it all together, but this is not a serious issue and the shovel works wonderfully.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Game changer for snow shoveling
Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024
Size: 18-InchColor: BlueVerified Purchase
The Snow Joe Shovelution is a game-changer for anyone who wants to shovel smarter, not harder. Its ergonomic design significantly reduces strain on my back, making the chore more enjoyable and preventing potential injuries. While the spring mechanism might feel unusual at first, it quickly becomes a welcome assistant. It's not perfect - some may find the spring handle too short, and the aluminum blade isn't ideal for scraping ice. But overall, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, making this shovel a worthy investment for winter warriors of all ages and abilities.

Would I recommend it? Absolutely! If you're looking for a comfortable and efficient way to tackle snow removal, the Snow Joe Shovelution is a must-have. Just be aware of the potential learning curve with the spring handle and choose the blade size that best suits your needs.

3.0 out of 5 stars Design flaw small button pin head holding shovel to handle is weakness. Not idiot-proof.
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2024
Size: 20-InchColor: BlueVerified Purchase
Main complaint: retractible button pin that holds shovel end onto rod easily became dislodged/ broken because bent and permanently depressed such that the shovel end would swivel on the rod and make the shovel quite useless for tossing snow in any direction other than straight forward.

I was able to fix it with a Leatherman by tugging the button pin into position but it looks like it will break again should anyone use the shovel with force. I may glue the shovel end to the rod later if this happens. For twice as much as any retail shovel doesn't seem worth that much.

(Details of complaint/use/ break:
When I first got it I admit, I was impressed and content before use. Package surprisingly small. Assembly easy. Looked like it would work.
Apparently the design is not idiot-proof. Multiple joints that hold it together are points for breaking.

My brother and brother-in-law used it for light snow and broke the lanyard that holds the floppy flimsy assist handle in place while not in use. Seems impossible, but I think he used it wrong and tried to shovel w lanyard as some sort of lever. No points lost for the product in that regard. 1point lost for brother-in-law. Apparently shovels are not idiot-proof anymore.

On second use was heavy 9in snow. it was broken on second use. My brother used it in heavier snow for less than min and noticed it would swivel as described above. I can't tell if within that minute he used excessive force or dug it into my driveway or a block of ice, but it was definitely dysfunctional when he showed me.
Because it is mutliple pieces anywhere that it joins it may break. The button pin is the weakest link.

I bought this to scoop live oak leaves on my 1 acre in Florida. The original that migrated back home with me from Kansas did the job, but thus new one with the lower handle causes far less back strain from the repetitive motion of scooping the leaves. It's sturdy, reliable, and makes the job 10x easier. Highly recommended.

Great design. This shovel had been amazing to use over over this and last season. It is effective in both little and heavy pile of snow and even more so with wet snow. Really convenient and I have observed no muscle strain after using it. With the handle it is just easy to clear huge pile of snow quickly.
