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 RecommendHad the snowblower delivered from Lowe's unassembled since they didn't have any assembled for delivery. There wasn't much to put together but when trying to start both electric and manual it wouldn't start. Tried all the troubleshooting tips but it still wouldn't start. It appears it isn't getting gas. Lowe's won't exchange for a working product and refers us to Ariens for warranty work so needed to return. Very disappointed.
Good luck with AI customer service
I get to the store and settle for what they have because inventory online is not correct

Works great, moved 6" of snow
Would RecommendI wasn't expecting it to be assembled. It was delivered to the house assembled. That is good and bad. Saved me time and frustration but I lost the knowledge of how it all works together. They put on a tag under the gas cap. Problem is they did not tighten the cap down. It rained and water got into the tank. I had to put paper towels into the tank to suck up the water. Wasn't much but used 5 paper towels. I bought from Lowes because HD had a longer wait time for delivery. I have had issu...

Delivered with build issues
I received my blower and put it together per instructions and videos on Ariens website. Immediately there were two issues. The throttle control would work, removing the base plate I found the belt on installed properly. I was able to get it installed and works. Now there is a fuel leak. I haven't even started it. Not happy with this, but sure once its fixed it should run well, at least I hope.

Right wheel falling off
Would RecommendI read all the reviews, this what I want. Bought this snow blower back in October and ran it through all its paces. First snow came, did a great job. Second snow, third pass, right wheel came off. Got it back in garage, key was missing and no washer. Closer look the E clip was still in place, which means the washer was never installed. Found the key, new washer and finished the driveway. Good machine, lousy assembly.
NA
Would RecommendOne of the wheels did not have a key in the shaft keyway so only 1 tire was driven. Had to remove the wheel, but a key from a local dealer and assemble

Big disappointment burger
Would Not RecommendDisappointed to say the least. Inconsistent starts or doesn't start. So aggravating. My Craftsman didn’t have the bells and whistles but it was a lot less money and started without issue.
