    Extra handle strap broke off

    I’ve had my shovel for a couple of years and unfortunately, today the additional handle that is flexible broke off where it connects to the pole. Wondering if I can order this handle with the metal strap?
    1 reply from Shop Joe Customer Care team - 1 month ago
    Hello Tommy, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for what happened with the additional handle on your Snow Joe Shovelution Strain-Reducing Snow Shovel.

After carefully checking, we regret to inform you that the specific replacement part you are inquiring about—the additional handle with the metal strap—is not available and is not sold separately. We truly apologize for this instance and for any frustration or inconvenience this may cause. Please know that we greatly value your feedback, as it helps us identify areas for improvement in product design, product quality, parts availability, and overall customer service.

    Great shovel, but it's not going to be an heirloom

    I've seen young kids struggling with their bent-handle shovels while I'm shoveling away with my "Strain-Reducing" Snow-Joe at 64 years old. Unfortunately, the shovel is now 4 years old. The paint on the spring-steel element for the lift handle has chipped off in multiple places, and the steel is rusting. And today, the steel edge popped off the shovel blade. It's still somewhat usable, but I doubt I'll get another season out of it. Meanwhile, the ancient wooden-handled / aluminum-bladed shovels that I inherited with my father's house are still going strong. They're just not the best for my ancient back!

    The SNOWJOE to the rescue . . . .

    Ok, so this is a LIFE-SAVER !!!!! For anyone that has some age, this is wonderful. It is an absolutely back saver. My arms and shoulders were sore but my back was fine .... I'll take that everyday, all day! First of all, this is a well made shovel. It's solid and has a good blade. It lifts a lot more than it probably should. And then you add the "extra" handle and it's a game changer. We put it to use during this 2026 East Coast Storm and it really made a noticeable difference. I like this so much, I clean it and store it indoors because I want to make sure it last until next season. As far as 'gadgets' go, this is an absolutely KEEPER!!! Many thanks.

    Edge guard detaches

    I purchased two of the shovels last snow season and absolutely loved the ergonomics and back saving design. But very disappointed at the quality and longevity of the edge guard and paddle as it fails after minimal use. As an engineer I think reinforcing the paddle and edge guard would go a long way to a winner product.

    Sure to fail when you need it most!

    Absolute trash excuse for a shovel. Come to the first snow storm with a hint of ice and it completely shatters. The plastic is flimsy and the metal strip at the bottom is completely for show. Don’t waste your time or money on this piece of junk.

    Shovel mental blade breaks off easy

    great assist handle, works well to prevent back issues. issue i have is that "metal" blade falls off and breaks now on both the two shovels ive had, slowly tearing away at the weak plastic now
    1 reply from Shop Joe Customer Care team - 2 months ago

    Good but one problem.

    I purchased this shovel a couple of years ago. It would have been a 5 star for ease of use and ending back strain but the metal edge fell off and the naked plastic edge is now vulnerable to damage. I can only use it for soft light snow

    Good news; bad news

    We live in NW PA and have had over two feet of snow this week alone (and it's still coming down). In short, I use my 18" SJ shovel - A LOT! On the plus side, it has held-up well and does reduce strain by providing various shoveling options/angles. I like it A LOT! The bad news? Today, the spring assist handle rusted through and broke off. The date on the label says 2016. So, yes...it's "old" and has had a good run. Still, it seems like a design flaw to construct such an essential part out of metal for use shoveling what is basically frozen water. Having to replace the whole shovel because there is no replacement part seems "unfair."

    Smart Design That Really Reduces the Strain!

    Great shovel! Arrived well-packaged with all parts included. Easy to assemble in just a few minutes, and the manual was clear and helpful. The spring-assisted handle really makes a difference — much less strain on my back and easy to lift heavy snow. Lightweight, sturdy, and works exactly as described. Highly recommend!

    Replacement parts are needed!

    This was our favorite shovel until we had back to back snow storms and after shoveling less than 10 times with it since we bought it the shovel broke. We came to buy a replacement for the handle and you don’t sell one. That is disheartening when you consider snow shovels usually last seasons not days.

    Must own SnowJoe Shovel!

    Late 40’s and this is the best shovel I’ve ever owned. Using it is so easy on the back and arms, it takes all of the pressure off your body to just fling the snow away. I came inside after the 1st time I used it and told my wife I wanted to go shovel the neighbors driveways for extra cash it was so easy.

    Best snow shoveI I ever used !

    I'm 70 years old, lived thru New England snow storms most of my life. Used many different snow shovels. Purchased this Snow Joe SJ-SHLV01 Shovelution Strain-Reducing Snow Shovel and was amazed how much easier it was to shovel snow. The concept of the second shovel handle made a huge difference. Watch the video on it being used and you'll want one. . . . I highly recommend it, you won't be disappointed.

    Love the shovel except the metal screeching noise

    I previously owned the same shovel but without the metal strip. The metal strip scrapes and on the floor and makes a screeching noise. I only wished this metal strip was not added!
