Has BIG power, but very easy to control!!

Was easy to assemble and blasted right through some dense heavy snow that had been sitting for a few weeks. Very powerful!!

My snow blower broke I called around and found one left of what i wanted.i drove 40 min to pick it up. Brought it home and it's been setting in garage for about 2 weeks. No snow so i can't say how i like it. But I'm sure i will. That's if it ever snows again.

This thing is a beast!

Would Recommend

I bought this right after teh snowfall in the DC area. We had about 8 inches, more where the plowguys pushed it up. This thing took it all on. I ended up buying a bunch of shear pins because I heard they break a lot, but I haven't broken a single one. In no time flat I helped a dozen people in my community to free their cars. This thing throws snow far!! I've used the push start, but the pull start is just as easy. I no longer dread having to shovel snow with a bad back, this thing makes life so...

The machine is complete junk.

Would Not Recommend

Purchased and delivered Jan 24th 2025 here in Sothern New Hampshire. We have used the machine maybe 15 times to clear ~ 100 inches of snow over our 378 days of ownership. Sat Feb 7th, we received 6 inches of light snow. Our driveway is a steep hill, maybe 55 to 70 yards long. The transition stopped turning the wheels at the bottom of the hill and had to be dragged up the hill back to the garage. The external cable is intact, and the hand lever still pulls the shifter. I purchased this to replac...

Only used a couple times, but works great!

Would Recommend

I only used it a couple times, but works like a champ. I saw several reviews stating issues with missing parts, broken parts or leaks. Luckily I didn't come across that atleast as of yet, but I did choose the 3-year warranty just in case. I am happy with my purchase, but three things I didn't like. It does use alot of gas and two, according to the manual, to check the gear oil, it says check the dipstick which is what would be great, however, it is only a bolt plugging it. I did see a video wher...
