" ... Reliable and sturdy. ... "
" ... If the rake piece was made of a sturdier material and the joints stayed together without needing tape, this would be perfect ... "
" ... I reuse grocery plastic bags instead of buying the bags made for this and it works well. ... "
" ... It's sturdy & has a clamp to hold the rack together with it. ... "
" ... The rake has a long and sturdy handle and it's curved shaped makes picking up poop so easy and effortless. ... "
" ... I love how you can add the bag ahead of time and then scoop the bag almost full, undo where you have the plastic bag ends looped over where it keeps it temporarily attached to scooper. ... I can tie the bag closed with out getting my hands dirty. ... I can anchor one piece on the ground and then turn the handle to tighten. ... "
" ... Keep in mind that the scooper is plastic, but honestly, it's half the price from the others and it does the job. ... "
