ScooperGenie is the best thing since sliced bread. Since the original invention of sccoper poopers, many new designs and improvements have appeared, many of which work admirably well, and there are a blizzard of models from which to choose. However, as is often the case, ONE creative and distinctive new design, elegant in form and function, appears, which is head and shoulders above the rest: in this case that is Scooper Genie, next to which all other models seem ponderous and clumsy. If what you require is a scooper devoted to your own yard, so that size and portability don’t much matter, then some of the two-piece units, like Petmate’s Clean response system, work very well, have a large capacity, and have a considerable advantage in allowing the use of (free) plastic store bags. However, for vacations, traveling, or just for excursions with your dog(s) on walks, to parks, trails, etc., Scooper Genie is just outstanding. It is only 16″ long, but extends easily to 24″, and then 32″, (and re-collapses) with a simple twist. Easy as pie. It is very light; carrying it is like carry a small “fetch” stick, no trouble at all. But perhaps best of all are the bag-handling design and the disposable bags, which allow almost effortless pickup at a comfortable distance and clean hands and scooper, with only one side surface of the bag exposed to soiling, and a (clean hands) folding-in motion of the bag that leaves no soiled surface exposed, allows still-easy carrying of the device until disposal, and also unfolding for a second use before disposal. The bag-ejector action is also neat, like an ejector-seat. Press the button and the bag is gone. ……….. Scooper Genie: Great product, Great prices, Great customer service.
