The item concept itself is great! I loved the "swiffer" click handle assembly. The bags do smell lovely and makes picking up the poop more pleasurable. Pleased that they provided 3 rolls of bags with the purchase. The bag holder attaches to the handle and makes it very convenient. The height of the rake is really nice because you don't need to bend over to scoop the waste. These are the positives. I LOVE the concept of the bags ON the bucket. And they conveniently loop onto the end hooks!! Only small comment is the drawstring loops COULD MAYBE be a skosh looser to pull to the side hooks, but if one is mindful and careful and you don't tug, they are great...
My negative is the actual RAKE for poop pickup. This company's rake is no different than any other company's....the rake only works EFFECTIVELY on ground, or extremely short or absent grass/dirt and with really dry or formed poop. The teeth of the rake does the same thing as a regular rake does when you are raking up leaves.....some leaves get caught in the prongs and you have to remove them manually...and with schmooshed poop, it's, well.... disgusting. The teeth get tangled in any taller grass blades...A better "rake" would be a shovel head or round like that for kitty litter scooping or kids sand shovels thought. So, I put the rake down, got my little kids 'sand shovel' and got to work. (Thinking to taping that shovel to a handle....)
Overall, I am pleased I bought l, will continue to recommend and just adjust to the small inconveniences.... yes I woukd buy again, even knowing the small "issues"...
