I bought a snow shovel "FISKARS" (I thought it would be something special). Checking: is it worth the money?

I don’t know how anyone has it, but I associate Fiskars with some super reliable and super expensive tool (the most interesting thing is that I didn’t deal with it myself, apparently the influence of advertising ...). And when I saw on the window a copy that I needed and can afford, I could not resist and bought ...

The wife is already trying ...

Friends, greetings to all. Winter is a wonderful time, even though it adds a lot of hassle with its arrival. Snow cleaning is one of them. And although I do not live in my house all the time, I appear often, and I will not walk through the snowdrifts. So you need to clean like everyone else.

I don't know why, but for many it is a huge problem. For me, to warm up with a shovel for half an hour is only a pleasure. If only the tool does not fail.

Last year I struggled with the cheapest shovel I could find. And did not attach importance to quality, until by the end of winter, she began to fall apart.

As a result, the entire plastic bucket cracked and just broke off. And there was only one aluminum handle (I move the garbage with it when I burn it in the barrel).

A new tool is needed this year. I decided to take something more reliable.

And it was not for nothing that I came across a shovel from Fiskars. Moreover, the price is not very exorbitant, about 1300 rubles.

Although, to be honest, looking from the outside you do not understand what is special about it? A shovel is like a shovel, next to the same ones cost half the price.

✅ I was especially surprised by the wooden handle 🤔. I thought these are only on the cheapest ancient ones, but on the modern ones there should be plastic, or aluminum.

But everything is learned in work.

The plastic is seen to be durable but flexible.

The bucket has a rigid shape and additional reinforcements.

And that same wooden handle is actually an advantage.

When you need to quickly clear out the snow, and you do it without gloves, the tree is pleasant to hold in your hands, it does not cool at all. With the same aluminum handle, bare hands, you won't work for a long time ...

And this does not add weight, the wife easily copes ...

Of course, a complete understanding will come after a while, but the first impressions of the instrument are excellent ...
