the eternal poop scoop
I've had this poop scoop for at least 20 years. A testament to modern
plastic. It's scooped tons of heavy clay litter. I recall buying it from the local megastore. It's huge and made entirely with one type of plastic. The background is a standard size paper towel. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5707/...eb4c54c4_b.jpg https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5800/...07240a0e_b.jpg |

I guess it's a YMMV type of thing. Did you bother looking at the pictures? It's a "comparing apples to oranges" type of thing. No telling what you mean by "these plastic scoops". There are jillions of different types of plastic. Some plastics wear better than steel. Modern plastics do miracles, but of course they must be matched to the task. The single word line in The Graduate (1967) "PLASTICS" was prophetic. To this day, engineers are still innovating plastics. Also, of course, it must be well designed and molded. The one in the pictures I bought over 20 years ago is well structured/reinforced. |

No need to get feathers (or rather, fur) ruffled over a difference in personal preference for litter scoops ;-) I'm talking about facts, not personal preferences. Did you bother looking at the pictures? |
