Suncast 8 in. Deluxe Scraper w/ D-Grip —
I saw my neighbor using one of these after we had a snowfall and then freezing temps. He let us borrow his for a while and I knew right away that we had to get one.
This scraper can be used in a vertical chopping-like motion to penetrate ice that you can't seem to get underneath. However, I've found that it works best when you can find an edge to get under and then use it on a slanted motion. Once you're under the ice, this thing scrapes up everything!
It truly is a must-have item if you experience snow and freezing temperatures. I don't know how I ever got along without it.
The only thing you should consider before buying is how tall the scraper is. I'm 5'6" and this scraper is almost as tall as me (or so it seems). That makes it a little cumbersome to use, but still well worth it. I think they make scrapers that are shorter and have a smaller blade, too. Best to consider all options before purchasing. I didn't realize that when I bought mine, but am still extremely satisfied, none the less.
