Customer Rating: Summary: Lil' Brush That Works Great Comment: Bought this brush for my girlfriend who wanted something smaller, something more "her size", and something more compact to brush the snow away from her vehicle. Works great and does the job efficently every time! Customer Rating: Summary: Great Value Comment: This scraper/brush was exactly what I was looking for to replace a similar scraper that finally broke after years of use. Works great so far. Brush is effective at removing ice scrapings as well as light snow. Great scraper for the price. Customer Rating: Summary: all right by me !!! Comment: This is an excellent snow brush made by Hopkins Manufacturing Company (Hoppy). It's easy to hold onto to get snow and ice off the windows of your vehicle and as long as the ice isn't very thickly caked onto the glass of your vehicle this does a fine job.
The snowbrush comes as both an ice scraper and a brush to remove snow. Both of these features work best after a snowfall that is lighter and/or wetter. If there's six inches of snow and ice on your windshield, turn on the motor and while using this brush let the heat of the car help to melt the snow and ice away.
It is mostly made of plastic; and as another reviewer notes the ice scraper could break if you apply too much pressure to it. However, unless you break it so badly that it just can't be used anymore the ice scraper will still be useful to you.
If your arms are too short to reach the middle of the windshield just do your best to clear away as much as you can. Don't drive if there are large areas of your windshield, side and rear windows that cannot be cleared.
The ice scraper and snow brush are constructed very well so this should last you a long while.
Overall, this is a fine ice scraper/snowbrush combination by Hoppy. I highly recommend it.
Customer Rating: Summary: good for the job Comment: It is as good as I expected it to be and for the best price I could find. Even cheaper than at the store! Also it is small and thin so you can just hide it in the car and remember it only when you need it. Customer Rating: Summary: Not worth the price of shipping (even for free) Comment: I was very dissapointed when I finally used this brush for our first snow this week. The brush sits too far back to clean the part of your side windows next to the side view mirrors without the scrapper getting in the way and constantly banging your side mirror. The bursh is too small to be effective for anything more than a dusting. The scraper is angled so that only about 1/2 of it actually hits the windows at any given time. For me, it was waste of time and money. I would not recommend this product.
