What Customers Are Saying
The Ariens Deluxe snowblower is a powerful and high-quality machine that performs well in heavy snow. Customers praised its ability to quickly and efficiently clear deep, packed snow, as well as its large tires, stable weight, and auto-turn feature. Many found the machine easy to assemble, start, and operate. However, some customers experienced issues such as the snowblower not starting in very cold weather, leaking gas, or having assembly problems. Additionally, a few felt the 254cc engine on the Deluxe 24 model was underpowered for their needs.

Would Not RecommendBought this new to replace my 20yr. old MTD 26" that still worked great, except no power or auto steering....First impressions were well made, heavy frame, all metal, auto steering, nice paint job.....Now I always use full syn. oil in my small engines, so I installed full syn. oil in from the start...To my surprise at first use in a 6 in. snow, the engine seamed under powered. Again for the next several storms, same thing, and climbing at end of driveway...What I learned is these engines need so...

this is one powerful beast for a snowblower.
Would Recommendthis machine is a beast. It is by far the best piece of equipment I have ever purchased. I have tractors, excavators, log splitters. The list goes on. This is well designed, well constructed, thoughtfully, put together and works so incredibly well. be aware that it weighs 280+ pounds so it’s not going to be something that you can just load in the back of your car. Or unload from your car. It requires some assembly. The instructions are somewhat contradictory as what you have in the box does not...

AN ABSOLUTE BEAST. 💪😎
Would RecommendI really like the power steering, the cable operated chute deflector is great. Overall it's a great machine. She walks through deep or heavy snow without a problem. WHAT A BEAST. 💪😎

Broke within 20 minutes
Would Not RecommendI don't believe that the internals are supposed to come shooting out of a brand new snow blower. If the unhelpfulness of my initial support interaction is anything to go by, this is going to be a painful process to get my money back and I'll likely be without a snow blower for the rest of the season. Lesson learned. Buy from a local equipment dealer and not Lowes. It's going to be a winter full of shoveling.
Nice snowblower
Would Not RecommendEverything works as it should. I have Lowe’s put it together for me and I don’t see anything that does not look right and I appreciate that. Delivery guys were very nice and personable.

Clean and Easy!
Would RecommendEven though the delivery date changed, the blower arrived in perfect condition and started on the first pull. I liked that, even though I first purchased the less expensive model and overnight changed my mind, swopping the sale was easy and the sales people were polite, helpful and professional. It all went smoothly! Thank you!

Questionable “professional assembly”
There was no pin connecting the chute handle. Went to buy that separately so the chute would rotate. Then the forward drive would not work

Still the best
Would RecommendAs most of us know, snowblowers have become less reliable. Only time will tell if this will hold true with the Ariens 24. For the meantime, this is the best machine for the money today. Plenty of power, very maneuverable and less cables than most, which are always a breaking point.
