"Aaron wrote : What a joke. Blade is unable to stay flush with the glass so have fun scrubbing at it the same way you would with a sponge anyway so just buy some of those instead for a fraction of the price"

Bottom Line

This product may not be worth the investment due to its demonstrated ineffectiveness, long cleaning times, and poor value. Users with larger tanks or those seeking a reliable algae scraper should consider other options.
