Frisco Extendable Litter Scooper

The adjustable "arm" length "locks" into place by turning it. The problem is that the "locking" mechanism doesn't stay locked, and it unlocks as you're using it, making the adjustable arm collapse as you scoop. That's very annoying. Bottom Line: If you have a disability that makes it hard/impossible to bend, then this scooper will do the trick, but you'll just have to put up with the annoyance of having to continuously re-lock the locking mechanism. However, if you are able to bend (you're just a little lazy like me), then it's actually easier to use a traditional scooper. In my opinion, this had tremendous potential, but Frisco blew it; they should have invested in a better quality "locking The adjustable "arm" length "locks" into place by turning it.

I recently had an SCS device implanted in my lower back. After the surgery I could not bend at the waist for 8 weeks. (A great chance I could pull the leads off the device). I did not know how I was going to clean out three cat boxes several times a day. I called Chewy, and the wonderfully helpful customer service rep told me about this scooper. It sounded perfect. I ordered one. It worked very well. You can sit on a chair and scoop the boxes without bending. It worked like a charm. I had one issue with it - the one I received would not lock in place. I had to constantly extend it. After a few scoops it would collapse again. I also wish it was a bit lighter.

We scoop 8 litter boxes daily and wanted something to help prevent us from having to bend over for so long. The problem with this scoop is that it’s not possible to dig out the pee clumps that are stuck to the sides of the boxes without the telescoping handling spinning even when it’s put into locked position. Even when it’s at the shortest length it will spin.

This is a great litter scooper because of the length but the handle wont stay extended. It keeps collapsing. I have a problem bending over to scoop the litter pan so I need this longer scooper length. If it just had some kind of locking mechanism it would get a 5 star rating. I'll have to figure out some kind of jerry rig to keep the handle from collapsing. Some kind of glue, like E-6000, maybe.

Wow I thought when I saw it on the website. This would be great for my back. I have 7 cats and 6 litter pans. Unfortunately it didn't live up to my hopes. When I tried to use it extended all the way it collapsed! It just would not stay open all the way. Still, it is longer than the ones I have so I will continue to use it.

You guys are great! Fast Delivery too!! Prices are right and we are never disappointed with our purchases! We will continue to order from Chewy and told our friends who also have cats to shop for themselves to see all the Great products that are available that you won't find in stores. Thank you Chewy, oh and my cats also thank you! We cannot wait to receive our next order from you.

We could not be more pleased with this purchase. This scooper is strong enough to pick up those big, heavy clumps at the front of the box (where everyone has chosen to pee, for some reason), and I can do it without having to bend way over and without worrying about the scooper breaking under the weight. I wish I had had this scooper YEARS ago.

This is an amazing and sturdy tool. I am a bit older and bending over to clean 6 litter boxes every day (we have 5 cats) was getting more and more uncomfortable. Heavy, metal construction and works like a charm. Thank you.

If the handle would tighten this scoop would be life enhancing! However, when I couldn’t get the handle and scoop head to stabilize then my husband used two wrenches in an attempt to make the scoop work correctly. Sadly, as soon as I tried to use the scoop the handle shortened and the head flopped sideways!! I am so very disappointed!!!

I needed a scooper that was long like this because I suffer from chronic migraines that cause me to be dizzy, so I really shouldn't be bending over to clean a litter box... well with this scooper everything is great! I don't have to bed over that much and it's very sturdy. Highly recommend!
