Product Description:
IceDozer Plus Ergonomic Ice Scraper
The Ice Dozer Plus includes all of the features that have made the Ice Dozer Classic a success. But now we’ve added the detachable PocketDozer. This multi-tool includes a brush with plush and durable bristles, that allows you to bulldoze snow off of your vehicle. The simple-to-remove PocketDozer also incorporates a scraping blade for tackling hard-to-clear areas such as the side mirrors and headlamps. In addition, the PocketDozer incorporates a special ice-notch, designed to clear ice chunks off of the windshield wipers. The Ice Dozer Plus is definitely our top of the line.

Works in some cases. (2010-06-24) Rating: 2/5
I haven't been able to peel ice with this guy. I experience mostly heavy frost and this took care of that pretty well until it dulled down (which was fairly quick). I tried breaking up ice as they show in pictures and videos, but nothing worked. The design also makes it impractical to clean the front windshield because it REQUIRES 2 hands to keep good pressure and to stabilize it.
Looks tougher then it performs (2010-04-08) Rating: 3/5
The Icedozer works pretty well on flat windshields, for example my Jeep. It's performance isn't as impressive on curved windshields, it only scrapes off thin slivers of ice due to the flatness of the blade.
We only got to try it twice this past winter on two different vehicles and two different conditions. The first time it performed admirably since the ice build up was thin. The "smashing" motion worked to create a break point and while "dozing" the ice crumbled and came off in sections easily.
However, with the thicker ice (~3-4 mm) the smashing motion did not seem to do much and while scraping/dozing, especially on a curved windshield, the scraper did not perform any better then a standard ice scraper.
Piece of junk (2010-02-17) Rating: 1/5
I read all the reviews and thought I would try it even though there were a lot of bad reviews.
Major complaints:
It is just like a cheap scraper in that it only shaves a small strip of frost off the window and not a massive sweep like it advertises.
Very hard to use. I am 6' tall and tried to use this on a 2007 Camry. So I was plenty tall enough and a Camry is not a big car. I was having to lean up against the car just to get everything. Not user friendly at all.
Minor complaints:
Not very sturdy. Mine didn't break on the first use like other reviewers but it did feel like it could snap at any time. There are a lot of pieces which means a lot of potential for breaking.
Overall:
I am returning this product. It does not perform as advertised. It is almost completely useless.
Good, but not great (2010-02-12) Rating: 2/5
Purchased this scraper in December 09. Got to finally use here in Virginia during the blizzard we had in February. It's ok for pushing snow off your car; it pushes great, but it's not long enough to push snow all the way off your windshield or roof. The scraper works as expected, pretty good. The long handle lets you get more leverage for that thick ice. The brush attachment is kind of a pain. It constantly falls off of my scraper when I am using it or the scraper side. Overall, it's a decent scraper if you get it cheap enough, but you could probably do better with a normal hand scraper and a brush.
Not for short people with tall trucks :) (2010-02-11) Rating: 3/5
I received this as a gift. It works really well on my car as I can reach the window with no problems. It is hard to use on my truck though because of the angle of the grip. I can't put enough pressure on it to make it remove ice from my truck. It is great for removing the ice off of the wiper blades. I would suggest this for car owners but not for anything taller than your average family car.
