iPrimio Cat Litter Scoop Metal w/ Deep Shovel, Black - Non Stick Plated Aluminum Cat Litter Scooper with Holder - Litter Box Scooper - Metal Cat Litter Scoop - Patented Sifter w/ Holder - Solid Handle

Our little guy, Rafiki, is now 3 years old. When I was looking for a kitty litter scoop I initially thought this one was a bit expensive and overkill. As silly as it may seem, this is one of the best buys I have ever made. It has been so solid and sturdy. I'm in and out of the litter in less than a minute. The much cheaper plastic ones will break very easy.

This scoop saved my wrist from the intense items deposited by a goodly number of Cats. Multiple scoop events daily.Thank you!

I bought this to try and help myself out when scooping the cat boxes. I have two cats so I have 2 cat boxes and back issues and arthritis in my hands. I thought this would make it easier and less painful. The length is good and is made of metal, which I prefer so it won't break or snap while scooping. The length is good and helps so you don't have to stoop so far over if the cat box is on the floor. The handle has a good grip but for me, I found it to be a to big around which made it hard for me to grip good. If you can't get a good grip on this you have to move your hands further down. I know this is my own issue and is not the scoops. I gave this scoop away to a friend that has cats but has no issues with her hands. She loves it. I gave it 5 starts because you get a good quality product for a good price as advertised. If you have smaller hands and have any hands or arm issues this might not be the product for you.

This litter scoop is so much better than any of the plastic scoops. It is very easy to clean too.

This scooper does an excellent job with corners. It scrapes litter off the bottom of the box with ease. One of my litter boxes is an older, large rectangular box with straight sides and this scoop is ideal for it. It bulldozes through the litter and is so wide it can do the whole box in 3 passes. If I were only cleaning out the poo and large clumps, I could be done in 12 seconds. As I use clumping clay litter (Dr Evsey's or Integrity), the soiled litter can break off into small bits, and cleaning those out takes more time. I was afraid that the wide spacing between the slots would be too wide for the tiny bits, but I've found that if I go through the litter a few times and change directions (left to right as well as up and down) I can remove all the tiny bits of soiled litter.My other litterbox is a newer design with curved edges, slanted sides and rounded corners. The straight sides of this scoop are less ideal for the shape of this box--but handle it fine. For this box I scoop in a different direction, use shorter strokes and take a little more time--not a problem. My older litter scoop has rounded corners, which in some ways makes it better for the newer, rounded litterbox, BUT this newer scoop is still faster. This new scoop, with its wide, sturdy, straight edge is much better at scraping stuck litter from the bottom of the box and because the spade is so much bigger than my old scoop, it requires far fewer strokes.The spade of this scoop is HUGE. It's about 5 inches wide by almost 6 inches long by almost 2 inches deep. It is much, MUCH BIGGER than my older scoop. It is also heavier. My cat sitter said she finds it a little too heavy (she prefers a plastic scoop, but I find those to be too flimsy). The weight isn't a problem for me, but I think if this spade were a bit smaller (maybe 3/4ths the size?) I might find it easier to scoop in different directions. If the space between tines were a little narrower, it might require fewer passes, but then it might not work as well with some of the other types of litter. Because it's a little heavy and a little big and I'm not sure about the spacing, I would give it 4-1/2 stars instead of 5.Overall, I'm pleased with this scoop. It's sturdy. It looks like a lot of thought went into it and it feels like a quality product. I chose this design over the older ones by iPrimio because the tines are shaped (reminds me slightly of the shape of my tangle-free hair comb). I'm not sure if the shaped tines help it to move through the litter, but I was impressed by how easily it plows through. Despite the Teflon coating, some litter does stick to the spade (but clumping clay litter always sticks--some brands more than others), so I don't use the holder (I prefer a bowl, to catch any litter that might fall off). I find most of any stuck litter comes off as I paw through the litter. I can scrape it off (or I assume it will wash off). The handle is ergonomic. It's a little wider than I prefer, but I have smaller hands than most people and I can grip it further down without a problem.It's a good scoop. I would recommend it to my friends.

I purchased a plastic scoop for cat litter and it was not sturdy enough to get the wet litter off the bottom of the box. This metal scoop is hands down the best scoop I've ever used and is as sturdy as sturdy gets! It does cost more than others, but don't waste your money on the plastic ones.... This scoop with last the lifetime of the cat and more!I would definitely purchase this item again and heartily recommend it to others!

Let me tell you, cleaning a cat's box is no happy time. But with this strong scoop it get all the cat stuff in the box. Especially when you use clumping cat litter. A good value.

Wish I’d bought this sooner. Makes scooping litter much easier.
