Arm & Hammer Swivel Bin & Rake Dog Pooper Scooper, Includes 2 Waste Bags

There are some things in life that you set out to do, those life goals like get a job, be successful, have a family, etc. I think it's safe to say that nowhere near the top of that list, or middle for that matter, is "Review a pooper scooper on Amazon". Yet, here I am finding myself doing just that very thing.How did I find myself here, well for years I have done the shovel, small garden spade method. Let me tell you with two 50+ Norwegian Elkhounds they can be poop factories - but it was what I used and never thought different. Then one day, after a particularly fragrant gift from one of my four legged friends I sought out a better way because my gag reflex just could not stomach it any longer. That, and the neighbor who came to my backyard to see what small animal was dying due to all the noise.I am not ashamed to say I researched pooper scoopers. I looked at all manner of them. From the open top rake method, to those fancy claw machine contraptions. I shouldn't be surprised that there are so many pooper scooper options out there, but literally holy crap!I finally decided on this one for a couple reasons.The enclosed bin, with the bag is a great idea.Long enough where I don't have to bend over at all (32 Inches)Easy to storeUpon receiving it, I quickly put it together loaded up the first bag and embarked on my maiden voyage into the dangerous backyard. Finding the first nugget I set the bin behind it and with a quick flip deposited said nugget safely into the bin/bag. No fuss, no mess, and no sounds of killing small animals. This wasn't so bad after all. I zipped around the yard like a ninja, flipping turd after turd into the waiting bin. No longer was I trying to strategize the firmness of the deposit, or which way upwind was. I saw a landmine and tackled it with the ferocity of a jungle cat seeing it's next meal (no I didn't eat any turds, that was a metaphor).Finally, finding the bag full, did I mention 2 Elkhounds are a literal factory of fecal matter? I uncinched the bag straps, tied them together, and poof found myself with a full bag of poo but no mess and easy to dispose of. Arm & Hammer sells extra bags for this, or you can just use normal plastic shopping bags. The handles will be a little different and may cause some issues but it should work.Humor aside, this is a really nice pooper scooper. I would have liked to see the actual rake part a little more sturdy, but for the price I can't complain all that much. It does make it extremely easy to pick up the mess, and dispose of it. I just wish I would have found this option sooner. No way am I going back to the "old" way.I highly recommend this product.

I really like this pooper scooper! It makes picking up after my dog so much easier, and both the rake and swivel bin work well. It’s sturdy and feels like a good-quality product.The only thing that takes a little getting used to is emptying the bin. It can be a bit challenging at first, but once you get the hang of it, it’s not a big deal.Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase. It does what I need it to do, makes cleanup easier, and I would definitely buy it again.

I’ve owned three of these over the past five years because I really like the design and how easy it makes yard cleanup. The swivel bin and rake work well and overall it’s very convenient.The reason for 4 stars is durability. On all three of mine, the plastic piece that holds the rake in place eventually broke. The rest of the product held up fine, but that connection point seems to be the weak spot.Still a good product, but I just wish the plastic was more durable holding the rake in place

I originally thought I preferred a traditional tray-and-rake style scooper, but after using different scoopers in different areas of our property, I have come to appreciate what this swivel-bucket design does particularly well.I now keep multiple cleanup tools in different areas around the yard, garage and barn. This is the one I like when I need to walk a larger area where there may not be a lot to pick up in one spot, but it is scattered around. That has made it especially useful for things like goose and deer droppings around the property, as well as regular dog cleanup.What I like:• Swivel bucket is especially convenient when walking around a larger area• Bucket can swing upright while carrying it, which helps keep what I have already collected from falling back out• Good for scattered cleanup where I am moving from spot to spot• Lightweight and easy to carry around the yard or property• More compact and maneuverable than some larger tray-style scoopers• Design is simple but functional• Includes bags if that is your preferred cleanup method• Works perfectly fine without the bags, which is how I normally use it• Has found a useful place in my collection even though I also own other scooper styles• Current price around $21 feels more appropriate for the construction than the approximately $25 I originally paidThings to be aware of:• The plastic feels more medium-duty than heavy-duty• For a concentrated area with a lot to pick up at once, I still find a tray-and-rake style faster to empty• I personally do not use the included bags because putting a bag on means handling the bucket more than I want to during cleanup• Instead, I use the bucket without a bag and hose it out when necessary, which keeps the whole process more hands-off for me• I would choose this more for its lightweight, portable design than for especially rugged constructionOverall:This is a good example of a product I have appreciated more over time. I initially preferred my tray-and-rake scooper, but once I started keeping different cleanup tools in different areas of the property, I realized this swivel design is better suited to certain jobs.For walking around a larger yard or property and picking up scattered messes along the way, the upright-swiveling bucket is genuinely convenient. I also like that I can skip the bags entirely and simply rinse the bucket out when needed.The construction is not what I would call heavy-duty, but the design works well, it is easy to carry, and at the current price I think the value is appropriate.Knowing how I use it now, I would rate it 5 stars.

Harden to believe I’d ever be excited by a pooper scooper but I have owned anywhere from 1 to 6 dogs at a time so I have scooped a LOT of poop. This is about the 5th model I have bought and it is by far the best. They include 2 bags with the purchase but you don’t really need to buy bags. Those plastic grocery bags every store says they recycle but probably end up dumped in the Indian or other ocean work just fine. You just slide the bag in the collection cup and hook the handles over the hooks on either side of the bottom of the cup. Because the cup swivels, you can lay it flat on the ground and putt those old doggie balls right into the cup with the included rake. No trying to balance them on a rake and throw them into a container, only to have them fall off and double or triple your work.The handles on the cup and rake are long enough that you don’t have to bend over to do the job. I am 5’7 and have no trouble. If you are say 5’10 or taller you will probably have to look at similar models that are more expensive. If you are young and healthy, a little bending won’t hurt and you can save money and use this one. I am 73 with arthritis so I try to keep my bending limited. Another nice thing is that you can keep the bag at arms length when you are removing the bag when finished. The plastic bag handles just slip off and the bag just slides out of the cup. A quick tie off and into. the garbage can. No need to wash out the cup unless you have foolishly forgotten to check the bag for holes. I only had to make that mistake once or twice and checking the bag is now part of my routine.These things are light but sturdy. You could easily take them to the dog park or anywhere else you walk your pooch. I recently bought one for my 75 yo sister who is still singing my praises for making her chores much easier and more comfortable. She has one medium size dog and she scoops one bag a week. I have an 80 lb and a 50 lb dog and I usually scoop one bag twice a week so that gives you an idea of capacity. I have a very small yard but don’t go out there often. If you have kids and don’t want to clean sneakers, you may want to do poop patrol more often. But that would probably be the case no matter which type of scooper you used. This one would just make it easier.

Bought this in June 2025, it’s now August 2026and the rake handle but don’t get me wrong, it’s a good product net the handles should be metal

These particular pooper scoopers work absolutely wonderful very easy to use. Take one bag off put a new bag on you never have to touch the poop.

Have tried so many others and hated them or they break right away.This one is great! It is sturdy and it was easy to put together which is always nice. I love the fact that it had bags that fit in the bucket (which was a good size) and made it easy to scoop the poo in. The rack itself is very sturdy and the tongs are more stable than most metal ones that I have used which is nice. The bags come off easily when you are done (but don't come off while using) and you tie off and throw away. The clip on the handle to store the rack is nice so you don't misplace it.

Molto pratico fa su consiglio

das Produkt ist gut, weil ich damit meinen Rücken schonen kann. Handhabung ist gut und einfach

Excellent

Trop bien! Très pratique et utilisation nickel

Estoy satisfecha con la compra, me salió a un muy buen precio, aproveche una oferta relámpago, y llego en dos días.Tengo dos perritos, así que la cantidad de pasteles fabricados en el día son bastantes, cuando vi el producto en fotos pensé que era más pequeño, la verdad es que tiene una muy buena capacidad y aparte te trae dos bolsas especiales para el recogedor, que están súper bien, el rastrillo que trae te va a ser de mucha ayuda con los pasteles que hagan en el pasto.Todo tiene una excelente calidad, pese a que es plástico es bastante resistente, en definitiva cumple con su función.
