Leonard Poly Scoop Shovel

I shovel mulch as a landscape worker almost daily. For me, this shovel was not sturdy enough to give me easy and efficient operation. It is relatively flimsy and small. One would be much better suited by a high quality grain scoop for commercial applications. It is good enough for economical home use.

I bought this because I have used these shovels in the past and was impressed by the performance. Apparently this shovel was out of stock so they shipped me a different brand. On the underside of the scoop lip there are multiple sections (no more than 2 inches in length) where the plastic material is delaminating. I haven't used it yet and can only assume its not too terrible, but I was nonetheless disappointed in the quality of the replacement product.

tired of breaking shovel handles and plastic breaking in the cold or when dropped.

I've been using this as a snow shovel the past two winters, and as everyone else has said it's extremely durable. Previously, I would get about one season out of a snow shovel, but this one still looks brand-new after two. The only drawback is the handle, which is too short. Please make a longer-handled version and I'd buy it immediately. Thanks.

I like the lightweight sturdy schoop shovel

This shovel works great for shoveling snow off roofs. You can't break it and the snow slides right off it.

not usable to use for crushed rock. The handle is too flimsy and not a practical shovel. Have to go back to using a poly scoop shovel

This is an excellent all around shovel and great for clearing snow on decks and other areas where a metal shovel may damage the surface. I would have given it 5 stars if the scoop was a little smaller so as not to pick up too much material at once.

This shovel was purchased to fill containers with potting soil to grow plants. The shovel seems indestructible. The scoop is too small for my purpose. It would be beneficial if Leonard could offer this shovel with a larger scoop also.

Years ago I had one of these shovels almost bend in half when it was left leaning on the back of our dump trailer. One of the guys raised the dump not knowing it was there. We couldn't believe the thing didn't break! Only scoops I buy now!

one tuff, well built shovel we just love it

It works perfect with about everything I do in my yard.. love it.

Our snow shovel broke so we wanted to get one that wouldn't.

We love the poly scoop. Last year I bought 11 different scoop shovels and my crews broke all of them and this year I bought three poly shovels in the spring and it's almost oct and we still have all three. We almost lost one of them by leaving it at a job but the foreman saw it from a few hundred yards off because of its color. I won't buy another type of scoop shovel.

Overall this is an excellent tool, I love the one piece design. My only complaint would be that the scoop have a larger capacity.

It is nice to have an indestructible (poly), easily locatable (orange), light, yet durable shovel when you live in Texas, because you never know if you will need to shovel up sand, mulch, gravel, snow (yes snow), or roadkill. This shovel can do it all. Also I figure if I can break that thing, I need to quit working so hard.

I purchased two of these snow shovels for my neighbor as well as myself. It all happened after I was shoveling for three hours and laid the shovel behind my car, and came out and decided to start my car, and try to flatten the snow with my car. You guessed it !!! I ran over my old shovel. This time, I was going to get a good one. When I saw the ad in your catalog about how tough this shovel was, I bought two!!!!! Needless to say, I've used it way more than I wanted to, but this shovel is by far the best I've ever used. Thank you for such a tough, strong shovel, not to mention the lifetime warranty. You guys are great!!!!!

Shovel has been fantastic. I bought 6 over a year ago and all 6 are still in use and still going strong. Survived pavement, woodchips, icy snowbanks, and being run over. Highly recomend!

We use our two shovels working with sand. They are very light and durable and we have not left one at the job site since they are so visible.

Great Product. Extremely efficient, durable & practical. "We just have to keep an eye on them regarding theft, as, they are very popular!"

Super sturdy, easy-to-locate bright color, perfect size!

It's a great scoop. Lightweight and durable

Very strong, will last forever. But, the handle is too short compared to similar scoop shovels.

This shovel is amazing. Light weight. Incredibly durable. I use it for snow and ice removal. However, it’s daily chore is mucking horse stalls. It’s the right size. The right weight. Lighter than even aluminum scoop shovels. This shovel takes a beating. Worth every penny.

Bought shovel to help speed up stripping of horse stall. Works great. Lightweight yet very sturdy and stable. Will likely get another.

This is a great shovel. We usually order a load of mulch and this made it so much easier than a normal shovel. great product.

Great shovel for clearing snow from wooden porches and steps, cleaning up on landscape jobs, and can take a lot of abuse.

This is the best snow shovel i have ever owned. It is lightweight but really tough and very durable. It is at a better angle to scoop the snow and toss it. I will probably purchase another one soon so i can have one in both my trucks for the upcoming winter season.

love these. The plastic ones where out in a month. These hold up much better and they are lighter. Just wish the scoop was a little larger.

I bought this for snow removal - it was great - we also are using it in our landscape construction division.

This has been a great shovel, used daily in our tree service. It doesn't leave marks on pavement like an aluminum shovel, has a deep basin to hold a lot of material and doesn't get bent like aluminum. We use it sometimes to push material into our large chipper with no worry as to damaging the chipper if the shovel were to go through. Crew loves them, two thumbs up.

It's great! Very sturdy, and versatile. After our snowy winter, it got a great deal of use. Looking forward to using it again.

Excellent product enjoyed by the entire staff. Light weight yet, very durable. We will be buying more.

This shovel is a great product. I havent had any problems with it. I use it for many things. It's durable and it holds up.

I was hesitant to buy this shovel because it is all polymer/heavy duty plastic. Ironically that is its best feature. I own a medium size landscape company and we install tons of mulch, hardscapes and do tree work. This shovel hardly shows any wear after an entire season. It is not going to rust and there aren't any handle parts to break. In fact the "D" handle is comfortable. Not only is this scoop seemingly indestructible but it is light weight and priced fairly. I would recommend this shovel to anyone who currently uses the aluminum grain/transfer shovel. My only criticism is its size. If the shovel were 10% larger in the actual scoop part I would have rated it "5 stars." So if you make it a little bigger I personally will buy several more.

It will last a lifetime

Like it because it is guaranteed not to scratch surfaces. We purchased it to clear snow from a Military brick Honor Circle just installed and don't want to scratch the engraved pavers. Awaiting first snow to determine how it works.

This shovel is very light weight and very durable and the bright orange color makes it very visible and easy to locate. Even while shoveling snow in almost zero degree weather it did not chip or crack. The cutting edge is self sharpening and wears very well even on cement floors and walk ways. I highly recommend this shovel.

Made well seems as if it won't break on scoop just below the handle as all other scoop shovels from the landscape supply stores do. Much stronger build.

I give this scoop a 4.5 for being rugged and holding up to the punishment I give it every day. I'm an arborist and I use it to pick up rakings from tree chipping operations and to help push debris safely into the chipper. The plastic scoops don't hold up long and the aluminum scoops wear out as well and can bend. Being all poly I don't have to worry if it does get pulled into the chipper, there are no metal parts to harm the blades. All arborists probably know how quickly the wood push paddles break and should consider the poly scoop as a safe alternative and they scoop up rakings as well. My only complaint is that it is a bit unbalanced, being heavy toward the scoop end.

Great, especially for wet snow. Wish the scoop was a bit larger

Puchased this for my husband for Christmas. He loves it! He likes the size of the shovel - takes care of a lot of snow. Would recommend.

I got this for myself (being an older woman ) I wanted a smaller shovel for snow and more on our mini or hobby farm. My husband loves it too for snow and cleaning up after our 3 sheep and more. Nice size.
