If there’s one thing that ruins the magic of a snowy winter, it’s having to de-ice your car. Not only does it add at least an extra five to 10 minutes to your morning routine, but it means spending ages either sitting in the cold inside your car or having to stand and constantly scrape ice and snow off your windscreen in the freezing temperatures.

However Amazon has dropped a handy gadget that speeds up your morning and gets you on the road faster without a whiff of anti-freeze in sight. The Electromagnetic Car Deicer is on sale down from £7.99 to £5.99 at the moment, and it works to quickly break down the snow and ice to make it quick to clear your windows and hit the road.

Rather than standing scraping away at the ice or running your car's heaters until everything melts, the Electromagnetic Car Deicer uses electromagnetic technology to activate the molecular motion of the ice and snow. This breaks down its structure, making it quick and easy to remove from your windows.

It’s not just your car you can use it on either; you can use it for clearing icy steps, to unfreeze door handles and even to clear driveways if you want. It’s small enough to keep in your bag, car’s central console or even pocket, measuring just 7cm long and 6cm wide, so you can carry it with you all winter and ensure you don’t get caught out by sudden snowfall or ice.

The Electromagnetic Car Deicer is compatible with plenty of car models. It also charges using solar, so no electricity is required to run it.

You could also help prevent frost from forming with the Magnetic Car Windscreen Cover for Winter, which is also on sale down from £21.99 to £16.99. This helps keep your windscreen protected from the snow and ice, and can also be used in the summer to help prevent your car getting too hot in the sun.

You could also swap out your gadgets for this genius 2026 Upgrade Suptruck Frostblazer for £10.99, which acts like a mini snowblower, helping blast everything from light flurries to deep drifts off your windscreen and car body. You can also use it around the house for things like keyboard cleaning and cleaning car interiors.

Although the Electromagnetic Car Deicer only has three reviews right now, they’re all five star ones. One wrote: “Starting the vehicle will be much faster.”

A second said: “[In] winter it’s very convenient.” Whilst a third agreed: “Highly recommended.”
