Fantastic dustpan. Truly, epically, legendarily-BIZARRE packaging.
Okay, so let me get this outta the way: I cannot STAND idiot reviewers who rate things like the shipping speed, some bizarre circumstance specific to themselves, etc. People reading a review, I maintain, care about the product, not the reviewer's sense of entitlement as to how FedEx should have put everything up to and including organ transplants on standby, that their loofa (which they were so desperate for, but have now paradoxically downvoted with a 1-star review) might arrive the very same hour (before) they ordered it.Hence my 5 star review. Allow me to briefly touch on what you likely care about:1. It's freakin' 'uge! I'm a woodworker; I bought this because the plastic children's snow shovel I HAD been using for sawdust had cracked (seriously), and I hoped this would be a superior sawdust transport mechanism.It's good at that. Really, really good at that. Granted: every time I pull it out, I expect to see a seemingly-impossible number of clowns begin to climb from it, but... well, put it like this: I can not only use a push broom to fill it, I can PUT THE PUSH BROOM IN IT WHEN DONE. Freakin'. 'UGE.2. I have not experienced any of the "won't sit flush with the ground" issues some reviewers have lamented. Albeit, the concrete of my shop floor was apparently levelled via frisbees being thrown at it by an blind, inebriated, kangaroo on a trampoline with half its springs missing, so it's possible, I suppose, that the "waves and bends" others describe just happen to align with my floor, but, if so: GUYS! This dustpan aligns with the floor I just described above! THAT floor! In EVERY ORIENTATION! It's a topological masterwork!3. Yes: I got the handle. No: there's nothing wrong with it. Yes: the dustpan will hold enough liquid to extinguish a medium-sized fire pit. No: I would not advise a large fire pit. Yes: it's sturdy enough to beat a kodiak bear to death with. No, a grizzly will take it away from you, chase you up a tree and then beat YOU to death with it. Then use it to collect several dozen POUNDS of berries.TLDR: Yes: I think it's worth the money, and it's arguably the best dustpan "technology"(?) the market has to offer.BUT...With all of that said:I happened to see the UPS guy the day of its delivery (it had been backordered when I purchased it, so this was a few weeks later, and I, being somewhat prone to shop online, had no clue it was due). He was struggling with a 4-foot long, medium sized box, and another one. A much, much larger one. I was CERTAIN I hadn't purchased a chest freezer. Or a water heater. Or a Buick. I ran out, and together we muscled the two to my porch.Baffled, I set about opening them, then and there, so the poor man could at least see what the hell the kerfuffle was for. The 4 foot package was an unrelated blanket from the wife. HOWEVER,. the Homeless Barbie Malibu Multi-Story Mansion with 4-cart garage and real working, deluxe boot-burnin' barrel proved to be The Dustpan, swaddled in a small deciduous forest worth of that brown paper, in what I can only imagine was an attempt to fill the 86 cubic feet of empty space in the box (and increase the package weight to a hair under a metric tonne). Incredulous, then swearing, the UPS guy stomped off.A dustpan box shouldn't be hard to ship, let alone to move.My wife helped me carry the box inside. It was one of those "we both had to watch our fingers on the box vs the door frame" scenarios. Finally, sweating, we manhandled it into the living room. I walked back out to the porch to retrieve the dustpan. By the time I returned inside (circa 9 seconds later), the box was inhabited. And while it was a very fair price for God's gift to dustpans AND a rocketship/time machine/transmogrifier/whatever it had been repurposed to, still:A dustpan box shouldn't hold two children AND a 60-pound Standard Poodle.It took a few minutes to explain to my wife that "yes, I'd ordered this", and "no, I wasn't starting a recycling center in the living room," and "yes, I remember what happened last time I did," and "hey look how cool the dustpan for the shop was," and "no, if you want one for the house, we'd best wait until next week after the recycling was picked up, assuming we wanted somewhere to sleep until then."I sighed as a swirl of leaves blew past my ankles. Inside.We turned in unison, trying not to picture the horror we knew we'd find. All three of the CATS had discovered the furlong of butcher paper that had been carefully cushioning the BLOODY INDUSTRIAL-DUTY, SOLID-PLASTIC DUSTPAN, and, having evidently worked out SOME system that succeeded in providing both the ticker-tape AND the confetti required to celebrate the arrival of a dustpan with apropos pomp and circumstance (best guess: two lay on their backs with 20 claws extended straight up each, while the third grabbed one end and dragged the whole mass through. Twice).A dustpan box shouldn't contain more extraneous paper than a CVS receipt."Peyow! Peyow!" went the box."*Rustle*Shuffle*Mrrrrrrowr!" went the brown paper spaghetti pile.Upstairs, went the wife.I went and got the push broom. Fortunately, I had this sweet new dustpan....and I FILLED that sucker....four times.

Best pooper scooper ever.
I use this has a pooper scooper. We have 4 dogs and it’s held up SO much better than the smaller, cheaper ones that I’ve bought on here in the past. It has wheels and holds a lot and is easy to clean.

Very strudy
I have a large cafe and you cannot use the dust mop style brooms do to the type if flooring. This broom works amazing and does not fling the debris around like a normal push broom.It is very sturdy and has support arms to support hard pushing, without breaking at the end.

Best Broom Ever “Quality”
Solid fibers love it best broom I've ever owned. Very simple to assemble nothing to it. Quality bristles id the key. It collects debris easily love the extra length and angle.It is well-made.Thinking of buying one for my brother-in-law's birthday.

Great size for shop, doesn't require holding in place
Set it down and sweep into it. Holds a lot. Reasonably sturdy for plastic product. One issue: do not store it where the front lip rests on a anything other than a flat surface since it will deform and take a set to match that surface and then not sit flat on the floor. You can restore it by sitting it on a flat surface for a while with a little weight on the front edge but save yourself the trouble by storing it properly.

Don't buy it
The handles are cheap and break easily.

How to get replacement rubber plugs for the bottom of the dustpan?
I have bought 5 or 6 of these heavy duty dustpans and they are marvelous and make my work much easier and I highly recommend them. However,1 problem , after a few months of use, every dustpan has lost 1 or 2 rubber plugs in the bottom of the dustpan. My property was hit by a wildfire a few months ago and I am trying to sweep up black carbon dirt & sand but every time I move the dustpan that is missing plugs, I have a black sand trail following the dustpan, making these dustpans almost useless. I would like help getting 24 replacement rubber plugs to fix the dustpans I have and some for spares. Thank you in advance. BTW, these dustpans are rated 5 stars when both plugs are present.
