I've realized I've had the same snow shovel for more than 12 years. I have no clue where I bought it, I recall it was more than I wanted to spend, but I needed one that didn't have a really long handle as I'm short. I made sure I took it with me when I got divorced. It's never cracked or chipped. Just a basic blue shovel. I'm amazed at the abuse it's taken, and still performs really well.
