| Editorial Reviews:
The IceDozer Plus obliterates ice and snow from your windshield so you can get on your way in seconds, saving time and effort. The scientifically engineered IceDozer is big and rugged with the power you need to overcome even thick snow and ice. It comes equipped with three unique and powerful attack surfaces, and the ergonomic PowerGrip handle harnesses the natural strength and motion of your upper body to help you quickly rip through ice.
 The IceDozer Plus' multiple features help you tear through ice | The Problem with Conventional Ice Scrapers
The common ice scraper has a flimsy blade that isn't tough enough for hard ice and a cheap handle that is awkward and tiring to use, plus it breaks easily. However, the most glaring defect is that these scrapers use a flat and inflexible blade to clear ice from curved windshields. As a result, each tedious pass clears just a sliver of glass. You want to do the right thing, but clearing all of the ice is just so difficult and time consuming with these conventional products.
Often in winter, reasonable, courteous people who'd never think of leaving the driveway with worn tires or bad brakes will drive off after scraping just a small portal through the ice. With more than 80% of their visibility obscured, these "peephole" drivers risk not only themselves and their passengers but fellow motorists and unwary pedestrians.
 Smart ergonomics make the IceDozer Plus easy to use | Introducing a Better Way: IceDozer Plus
The patented IceDozer has been scientifically designed and tested to clear frost and ice from auto windshields quickly and with a minimum of effort. The heart of this high-tech product is the heavy duty FlexiBlade, which bends to the curvature of the windshield. Each pass clears a much wider swath of visibility.
The IceDozer comes equipped with three powerful attack surfaces. The finely honed FrostPeeler Blade takes aim at stubborn frost, while the forward-facing IceBreaker Teeth concentrate the cracking force when tackling thicker ice. The carbide-style Tenderizers on the bottom of the IceDozer are designed to exploit the Achilles Heel of ice; its brittleness. Tapping sharply downward creates hairline fractures that make it much easier to rip ice from the windshield. Additionally, the forward-facing SnowPlow surface helps keep you dry and warm by bulldozing snow and ice away from your hands and sleeves.
The effectiveness of these unique attack surfaces is dramatically amplified through a two-fisted PowerGrip that harnesses the natural strength and motion of the upper body. As a result, the IceDozer is effective and very easy-to-use regardless of size, age or physical capabilities.
The IceDozer Plus improves on the design of the IceDozer Classic by featuring a detachable PocketDozer and brush. Once removed, the PocketDozer has its own scraping blade to clear hard-to-reach areas such as side mirrors. This removable tool also incorporates the IceNotch, which isn't found on other scrapers. It is specially designed to clear ice chunks off of windshield wipers--just slide your wiper blades through it to restore their effectiveness.
These innovations combine to allow you to tackle virtually any kind of ice build-up with a minimum of effort. The IceDozer family of products is proudly manufactured in the USA of the highest quality materials and backed by a Lifetime Warranty.
Product Description
The Ice Dozer Plus includes all of the features that have made the Ice Dozer Classic a success. But now we’ve added the detachable PocketDozer. This multi-tool includes a brush with plush and durable bristles, that allows you to bulldoze snow off of your vehicle. The simple-to-remove PocketDozer also incorporates a scraping blade for tackling hard-to-clear areas such as the side mirrors and headlamps. In addition, the PocketDozer incorporates a special ice-notch, designed to clear ice chunks off of the windshield wipers. The Ice Dozer Plus is definitely our top of the line.

 Works in some cases. June 24, 2010
Joseph Drake
I haven't been able to peel ice with this guy. I experience mostly heavy frost and this took care of that pretty well until it dulled down (which was fairly quick). I tried breaking up ice as they show in pictures and videos, but nothing worked. The design also makes it impractical to clean the front windshield because it REQUIRES 2 hands to keep good pressure and to stabilize it.
 Looks tougher then it performs April 8, 2010
Hoang M. Nguyen
The Icedozer works pretty well on flat windshields, for example my Jeep. It's performance isn't as impressive on curved windshields, it only scrapes off thin slivers of ice due to the flatness of the blade.
We only got to try it twice this past winter on two different vehicles and two different conditions. The first time it performed admirably since the ice build up was thin. The "smashing" motion worked to create a break point and while "dozing" the ice crumbled and came off in sections easily.
However, with the thicker ice (~3-4 mm) the smashing motion did not seem to do much and while scraping/dozing, especially on a curved windshield, the scraper did not perform any better then a standard ice scraper.
 Piece of junk February 17, 2010
B. Pinson (Cordova, TN)
I read all the reviews and thought I would try it even though there were a lot of bad reviews.
Major complaints:
It is just like a cheap scraper in that it only shaves a small strip of frost off the window and not a massive sweep like it advertises.
Very hard to use. I am 6' tall and tried to use this on a 2007 Camry. So I was plenty tall enough and a Camry is not a big car. I was having to lean up against the car just to get everything. Not user friendly at all.
Minor complaints:
Not very sturdy. Mine didn't break on the first use like other reviewers but it did feel like it could snap at any time. There are a lot of pieces which means a lot of potential for breaking.
Overall:
I am returning this product. It does not perform as advertised. It is almost completely useless.
Good, but not great February 12, 2010

Purchased this scraper in December 09. Got to finally use here in Virginia during the blizzard we had in February. It's ok for pushing snow off your car; it pushes great, but it's not long enough to push snow all the way off your windshield or roof. The scraper works as expected, pretty good. The long handle lets you get more leverage for that thick ice. The brush attachment is kind of a pain. It constantly falls off of my scraper when I am using it or the scraper side. Overall, it's a decent scraper if you get it cheap enough, but you could probably do better with a normal hand scraper and a brush.
Not for short people with tall trucks :) February 11, 2010
Little Red Imp (Way North)
I received this as a gift. It works really well on my car as I can reach the window with no problems. It is hard to use on my truck though because of the angle of the grip. I can't put enough pressure on it to make it remove ice from my truck. It is great for removing the ice off of the wiper blades. I would suggest this for car owners but not for anything taller than your average family car.
