Works great. I can clear a 4-inch snowfall at a fairly brisk walking pace. Only effort is in keeping a straight line, with the lateral force of pushing snow to the side. Combine that blade concept with this device and you'd REALLy have something! I may give it a shot. I have a diagonal-blade plow with just a regular shovel handle. Works great.

It probably wouldn't work too well on my steep-sloped driveway anyway. I can see it falling over sideways. My $30 curved ergonomic shovel is just fine for me. It's S-shaped design causes snow to be thrown more horizontally, so you use a lot less energy than if you were throwing it up in the air.
