ThinkandDrive	JudyFoodie, Mine was only welded on one side also. But I think it was one \"spot\". That is, you can look at the new one and see where it was tacked in two places, right side by side. My first one seemed to only be welded on the very tip of the curly part, which is why I think it snapped. They're certainly made very well. I think I just has a dud. This one still moves a lot, but doesn't seem as loose as the first. Wish I had taken pics.
JudyFoodie	ThinkandDrive, Hmmm...mine is only about a month old and it is only welded on one side. Thanks for the heads up.
Letts-Do-It	ThinkandDrive, I always use my Shop Vac to clean above and below the grate. Wonderful and clean way of getting the very small lump and ashes out.
ThinkandDrive	JudyFoodie, If you're able to use it to clean out the ash, it's the right size. ;P I suppose the major differences are in the length of the \"scrapey end\", since the draft doors on the various models may differ. Keep an eye on that springy handle. I thought mine moved a lot and then the weld snapped one day, about a week after I got it. The store I bought it at was perfectly gracious in replacing it though. I think it was just a faulty weld, since this new one seems to be welded in two places instead of just the one. It's a totally indispensable tool!
Celtic Wolf	JudyFoodie, Older eggs had a locking mechanism that you had to manually lock. That hook helped that. Now it's just a another thing for new people to ask about
DynaGreaseball	JudyFoodie, I use the curved end to hang it on the hook on the edge of my table when I don't need it. IMHO you'll learn that this is your most used tool, eventually.
