For most of the nation, it really feels like winter outside this week, and with that snowfall comes plenty of frost to cover your windshield. If you must drive in these drab (but idyllic!) conditions, let traffic be the only thing that holds you up, not the winter weather. Consider grabbing an electric ice scraper to shave off your car’s icy debris. We found one that a reviewer calls a “real shoulder saver,” helping take the strain out of that traditional push-and-pull scraper, thus saving time and energy with a simple button push. It’s fast, too; some reviewers say takes less than a minute to clean off their windshield.
Best of all, it’s also on sale today. Right now, you can nab this nifty gadget for 30% off its typical price with the on-page coupon. That knocks it down from $59.99 to $41.99!
The head of this electric ice scraper is made of plastic, which means it won’t scratch your glass windshield, and its head moves 45 degrees for an angled clean. Once it’s turned on, the head spins via a 1600 RPM motor, using high-speed to clear off your car before hitting the road.
Take note, though: This thing blasts snow, ice and frost from your windshield with the help of a 20V Dewalt battery pack, which is not included. If you’ve already got a Dewalt power tool, you’ve likely got a battery that works. But if you need a spare, no worries — they’re available on Amazon, including this one on sale for $40. Just be sure to eye the list of compatible battery packs on the scraper product page.
Read on for more promising reviews of this electric ice scraper:
“We haven’t had much ice this year yet but, from what we have had this thing has worked flawlessly. Easy to use and does what a normal ice scrapper would do in a fraction of the time.. Higly recommended. Have already bought two more for family members to use as well!!” — DANIEL smith
“Was very simple to put together out of the box. The DeWalt battery fit perfectly. The motor seems to run strong and the ice scraper part is made of plastic so it will not scratch your windows but be cautious not to let it touch painted areas. This thing took off a very thick layer of ice from a near blizzard storm that we just had. I’m very impressed with it. This is a category of tool that I didn’t even know existed until recently, but now I’m all in! Highly recommend it if you are sick of scraping away with a plastic scraper on a stick. This thing does all the work for you.” — David J.
“Purchased this novel scraper to help relieve the shoulder fatigue I get from manually scrapping my car windows in the morning. Here in the mountains of western North Carolina we not only get frost to scrape off but often a layer of sheet ice. This electric scrapper makes removing frost a breeze and can be accomplished in less than a minute for my SUV. Removing 1/8th inch of clear ice takes a bit longer but sure beats doing it by hand. The scrapper is also great for instantly removing frost from the inside of my storm doors. The adjustable head is useful as I use the flat setting for car windows and the 45 degree setting for the storm windows. The scraper is well made, accepts DeWalt batteries very smoothly, has a good balance and weighs little. Definitely rates 5 stars!” — Facheem1
“Plenty of power to chip away stubborn ice. The design is smart and comfortable to use. The power switch works well if you’re wearing gloves, which I expect most do when using this gem of an idea. Great product. Glad I found it and can use my DeWalt 20v Max batteries.” — Mark McMickle
“I got this for my wife who is too short to reach the windshield of her SUV. She loves how easy it is scraping the ice, how well it works, and the long handle for help to reach. This is a great deal too. The scraper doesn’t get too hot when using it. I love that my Dewalt battery works with it!” — TP BJ
