Ratings & Reviews for Ariens Deluxe 24-in Two-stage 252-cc Self-propelled Gas Snow Blower

Longtime User

A great machine; an Ariens user for 50 years, I just purchased my third one. I like the updates like discharge chute control and headlight. One concern: on my old Ariens, the discharge chute could be turned about 110-120 degrees so the snow could be blown somewhat behind the operator or simply to compensate for wind. It would be nice to have this range of motion on the newer models.

Super souffleuse à neige

Very capable of handling 20cm of wet heavy snow, good traction on the ice. Controls are robust and easy to manipulate with gloves on. Fairly easy to assemble and start-up. My only complaint would be the fuel knob is not clear with respect to the direction for on/off, I stalled it a couple of times the first day because I turned the knob in the wrong direction, the image in the instruction manual is not very clear either. Overall happy with the machine.

HAPPY

FIRST SNOWFALL OF ABOUT 20 CM TOPPED WITH RAIN. THE 24" DELUX WORKED WELL BUT I HAD TO TAKE 12" SLICES. THE 300 CC ENGINE COULD OF BEEN A BETTER CHOICE. THE 254CC DID THE JOB IN A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME.PULL START WORKS FANTASTIC. WOULD PREFER HAVING MY FREE ARM ON THE LEFT SIDE TO USE DEFLECTOR CONTROLS! ALL IN ALL VERY SATISFIED.

Had a couple of light fluffy snows before today that were no real challenge, but, this morning I woke up to a major snowfall topped off nicely with enough rain to truly make it a “heart attack” event if I tried to shovel it…a true challenge for my new Ariens. Very happy and proud to say this baby chewed through the mess with absolutely NO problem at all. Would have plugged my old blower in the first 5 feet. The claims are true, this truly is the “King of Snow”

I bought this model to replace a Toro single-stage machine. The snow in Oakville, Ontario seems to getting wetter every year - this machine handles the snowfall easily. Takes a bit of practice to use the 6 gears efficiently. The reverse gears are useful. Very satisfied with "the beast"!

My 3rd Ariens snow blower

This is my 3rd Ariens snow blower sit. Each time I purchased one I bought one that was bigger and better they'd actually become a house member. The durability of them quality that they are made of their ahead of all the rest. The question would be why is this my third one. I upgrade about every 10 years. So with that statement if you treated properly I know you're going to get 10 years or more out of.

We have received a couple of snowfalls recently and my new 24 inch deluxe performed like a pro. Could not be happier with my purchase. Can't figure out why people complain about auto-turn, as far as I'm concerned it's a perfect feature.

bought this new deluxe 24 to replace my 30 yr old Ariens. Like the size and features. Hope this one is as dependable. Local dealer was great

King of Snow

Ariens makes an amazing snowblower, they are called King of Snow for a reason and it most definitely shows in all their products.

The best snow blower !

I have the Deluxe and it is awesome. Best snowblower out there. Night and day compared to other brands out there. It goes through deep snow no problem. Wouldn’t buy any other brand. I just love this snowblower.

Can’t Wait

This is my first Ariens product purchase. I have many friends that have your products and are very satisfied. I haven’t used it yet because I purchased it early to beat the rush. I didn’t want to take a chance that there might be no stock available. So the title of this review is Can’t Wait because I am so looking forward to using my first Ariens snowblower. I live in the Buffalo, NY area and we are known for getting a lot of snow, so I feel fully prepared.

Best Snowblowers!!

This thing is a tank!! Walks right through a foot of snow without a problem. Ariens is the best!!!!

Great machine

Use it for 1 winter so far, it was not a hard winter this year but i use it almost 10 times and it's great. Im very happy with my purchase.

Great snowblower

I love this snow blower! The electric start is effortless and this machine has POWER and PULL! It chewed through 18 inches with ease. I highly recommend it. It is worth every dollar spent.

Snow Beast

Better than the King of Snow, my Deluxe 24 is a Snow Beast!! Love it

Awesome Machine

Love my new Ariens! Demanded my family (at home) not touch the driveway - I wanted as much snow to clear as possible!! Yes, I wanted snow! Just put away for the summer - summer prep / service was a snap!

Total beast

Bought this animal and used in in 2 storms. Started on first pull out of the box. Second storm was extremely heavy and wet. No problem. Still threw the snow a mile without clogging. I highly recommend this workhorse

homeowner

This was a replacement of an ariens snowblower that I replaced after 20 years of wonderful service. I find this snowblower a great improvement of my previous model. It comes with power steering that helps turn the snowblower with ease. I bought this replacement because of the balanced head that is easy to lift when needed.

Impressed User

This machine worked flawlessly and effortlessly in moving huge piles of snow that had been pushed up from previous snowfalls along my driveway to street.

BEAST!

My father owned a 1971 Snow-Thro, which my brother still runs to this day. The decision to buy Ariens was a no-brainer, and my Deluxe 24 is the perfect powerful, versatile beast I expected!
