You can laugh you if you had told me that I commenterais that one day I would not have believed it! this shovel is so OUTSTANDING that it deserves more comment! (Even great) In alu please! plastic I have, I change them regularly and I suddenly just had REVELATION that if I buy one more that I would not change them! Belle economy! With any luck it should even go in the dishwasher! So BUY this M'sieurs shovel Dames, and do not serve primarily to stick a bread cat as advocated by some! And with TWO shovels, you can play percussions! ...............
