| Murphy - 2014-02-04 8:54 AM Ok, I have to ask.... what makes the Versza so great? I just have a cheapie and it's done me just fine so far..... am I missing out? LOL
I second this Murphy! My husband wanted one SOOOO bad at Congress...but for $60 bucks...I was like first off...none of our prongs have broken...and if they did we would just buy a new head for cheap and put it back on the handle...
I am a tight wad though....husband was so sad I shot him down.

We break ours about every 4 months it seems- usually when stripping the pee out or something. Anyhow- for not much more money they are a lifetime guarantee so we gave it a try. It has a different angle than I am used to but so far so good. |

It's taken me a while to get used to the different angle of it BUT I would pay for another one long before I bought any other one. |

| Good to know that everyone who has one likes it! Maybe we will get one next year....I just have a hard time forking over money on something that just shovels up poop. Especially since I have never broken a prong on my current pitch fork that is about three years old, and the replacement fork heads are only $7.99. I only clean three stalls....my poor husband....lol |

| I NEED to get one of these! This winter has killed 3 picks here. Great to hear people like them, I was hesitant because of the cost. |

Location: CTX | OK, so I received my fork yesterday , and decided to tackle our run-ins with it..... 
normally I manage to break half a fork there since they don't get cleaned every week.
And I am pleased to say, it is still alive!!! So this makes me hopeful for the future!!!  |

| THe way I understood it they have a lifetime warranty. If one breaks you pay $2-3 for shipping and they send you the replacement parts. |

Location: PA | Mine came in used it twice now! I do anywhere from 6 - 8 stalls with it
looove it the only thing i find wrong with it is the smaller poo / poo chips tends to fall through!! anyone else have this issue?? i think if i tilt it back more when im shakin it seems to stay in a bit better.
