Nice shovel.
Light weight, easy to put together, bright color is fun. Haven’t had to use it yet, so I can’t speak for durability. Only gripe is the handle is geared more towards a right handed individual using their right hand on the t-handle with a split grip of sorts and it feels a slight bit awkward for me (a lefty) to use. I don’t think it’ll matter all that much in the long run, so I kept it.
