This Easy Shovel accessory is one of those innovative gadgets that immediately makes you say, ‘if it works as good as it seems, why don’t shovel makers offer it as a default accessory?’ The adjustable strap is attached to the shaft of a conventional shovel via a Velcro collar, and you then use the strap to gain extra leverage and so save yourself from back pain when you’re shovelling dirt, sand, snow or whatever. Sometimes the simple ideas are the best? The little gidget costs £18.99.
