Anyone recommend one they have and like?

I see bristles and foam. I'm thinking foam. Concerned about the telescoping mechanisms most though. I've found anything mechanical and ice\snow don't mix.

I use my cordless leaf blower the most for light to semi-wet snow. Works like a champ.

The wife isn't taking a leaf blower with her to work.

I use a type called a Snow Pro. Just knocked off 10 inches of snow of the Durangos roof. Wont scratch paint, either. So they claim, anyway. The foam head unscrews from a solid steel handle. No telescope so it should be storable in a car.
Amazon has them for around $25. $$ well spent.

We have a SnoBrum and it's AWESOME. No more trying to knock heavy snow off the tops of cars with a broom, you just give it a shove with this and off it goes.

I'd gladly pay double or triple what they want for one of these, they are that good:



The only issue I had was the handle getting a little loose over time in the plastic threaded socket on the foam piece, but I wrapped a small piece of electrical tape over the threads of the handle and screwed it back on tight, much like you would use Teflon tape on pipe threads.

Second vote for the sno brūm.

Works on the light stuff as well as the heavy. I do keep a cheap bristle wand with ice scraper for the edges and wiper area, but that combo has worked well for me over the last 5 years.

When I lived in Alaska, I had a 6' long telescoping ice scraper that had a snow brush on the other end. Worked great for my full-size Silverado. While the truck heated up, I'd brush off the snow on the hood, windows, and roof so they wouldn't deposit snow on windows while I drove. Then, I flipped it over and scraped off the windshield so it wouldn't tear up wiper blades and I could see. Also, scraped off the other windows to be able to see.

Pro tip: if it's going to snow, leave your windshield wipers lifted up so they don't freeze down to the window. Your windshield wipers will last longer and work better.

Is it a snow pro or a snow Joe? I found something similar to your description called a snow Joe, but not a snow pro.

**Edit**

Nevermind, looks like it's a version of the Snobrum. Guess that's what I need. Thanks!

Yep... The supposedly heavier duty version of the Snow Brum. I bought it for the non-telescoping steel handle.

SnoBrum with a fixed wooden handle in the garage and one with a telescoping aluminum handle in the truck.

Foam works as advertised. Telescoping handle makes clearing very easy even when Heavy Snow is present.
