Update International (AS-24) 24 oz Aluminum Scoop

I'm using this to scoop compressed hay cubes (horse feed); the cubes are very densely compressed and are roughly 1.5" x 1.5" x 2.5" max (some are smaller). The biggest ones especially are very hard to scoop with a standard plastic horse feed scoop, which is not really strong enough and also has a blunt edge. This scoop works very well for this purpose; it has a beveled front edge (I guess to help break up ice cubes) and a very sturdy, comfortable handle. The handle initially seemed short but I quickly got used to it. Now to sizing...the page I ordered from said the scoop was "1.75 x 4 x 2.63 inches." I realized that couldn't possibly be correct and went by what customer reviews said...which didn't turn out correctly either. The scoop I ordered is stamped (into the metal) "24 oz" and it is 10.5" long (the whole thing), 3.75" wide at the widest point of scoop (close to handle), and 3.5" wide where the scoop begins to narrow quickly to the scooping end. I think the seller is lumping reviews for all sizes of this scoop onto one page. I actually would have preferred a slightly larger scoop but this one really works fine, especially to feed just one horse, plus I expect it will last forever. I wish the seller would improve their product size descriptions--it might improve sales!

Solid, one piece design super large hand scoop/trowel, comfortable handle and weight. I've been gardening for 23 years and always wished I could find a really large (but not overly heavy and awkwardly handled) scoop like this one for scooping potting soil, compost, amendments out of bags/boxes and for mixing them, and filling pots quickly. This is just what I needed. Well made. Highly recommend.

Definitely a BIG SCOOP. I use it for cat litter and it works extremely well. Great construction, I expect it will last forever

I bought this scoop for our store ice machine, this is very good quality one. I recommend it!

i actually purchased this because of size, weight of product & ease of cutting it. Modified by cutting off handle and end of scoop to attach to a long hollow aluminum rod to scoop up rocks out of water. I also used the cut off pieces to form a secondary scoop to the main scoop to help feed the rocks into. this fit the bill. waterproof, lightweight, durable, malleable, easy to drill for screw holes & drain holes. oh, I have these for food scoops also...works great for that purpose too. LOL. yes, recommend

It’s a nice scoop overall but I feel like the handle would be more comfortable if it had a bit more length to it - a bit awkward feeling when using. It holds a nice amount in the actual scoop and is easy to clean.

love it, use it daily for large dog food mix in the evenings. About the size of a quart jar with a handle, its a great size

Big scoop and strong, not flimsy.
