Ratings & Reviews for Ariens Deluxe 30-in Two-stage 301-cc Self-propelled Gas Snow Blower

Excellent snow thrower

Works great very well built. Makes your snow your neighbors problem. Will handle heavy slush and standing water and throw it 20+ ft

This monster is easy to tame.

Made in USA. And it shows. Solid, built to last. Parts affordable and original(and not cheap- affordable and priced reasonably). Keep America great, your product means it! Bought it since no more can handle heavy turns. This beast is like a kitten- follows me everywhere. Easy to work with, easy on body, since mine got old. Avoid that heart attack.

Excellent Machine

It was awesome the only time I used it this year. Suck we aren't getting any snow in Pa this year.

Love the new features

I replaced by 25 year old 8hp Ariens with this one, Wanted to auto tune feature and also the hand warmer.

Very Satisfied!

I have had several opportunities to use my new Deluxe 30 several times now. It moved the snow effortlessly with snows ranging from 6 to 12 inches. Feature wise: The auto turn is excellent! I was worried that on my long gravel drive it might have issues. The snowblower tracked straight and turned when I wanted it. The chute control being in front of the dash was a change from what I have been familiar with. I have no problem changing chute direction on the fly. I am very comfortable with it now. ...

Great machine

It is unbelievable how far This thing throws snow!

So far, yes..used it once ad it did a great job.

Snow blowing a black top driveway.. love the controls with one comment... I have a slight case of arthritis in my hands and the two drive handles (wheels and impeller) are quite tight and require me to move my hands around to avoid cramps....a very minor point, but since you asked! If there was a way to adjust the tension on these, that would be welcome...still love the machine.

Great snow removal, but one heated handle doesn't work

The snowblower itself works great, so far I love it. Problem is that the right hand side heated handle doesn't work (no heat) and never did. Place of purchase made it very clear they don't do service work from the get go so I'm stuck with trying to figure out how to get this very heavy thing to a repair shop (I don't have a truck with a ramp) without having to pay and arm and leg to get it there. Probably not worth the hassle, but for what I paid for the item, it really should not have come wi...

I would buy this product again.

I have one third mile drive and there's nowhere to put the snow do to the amount. I plow and then trim it up with the blower.

Just okay

I went from a compact 24 to the deluxe 30. I got 14 years from the old one and it was time for a new one. I assumed they would have similar features and I was wrong. The biggest defect on the new one is the snow shoot, it only turns 90 degrees. The old one turned more so at the end of a row, you could direct the snow slightly behind you instead of blowing the snow into a area that has been cleaned. Another defect is the auto turn. It takes work to keep a straight line. I feel stuck with a bad de...

Yes

The machine works wonderfully. The past couple of days it has been very cold and the machine starts easily. Even by hand pulling. The only thing I would change is the very wimpy cotter pin that holds the handle that turns the chute. The chute gets tuned a lot and I am sure that piece will soon break.

Happy customer

I love my Areins deluxe snow Thrower. I would have given five stars if it had an auto control button for the shoot directional. Otherwise it performs well and is high quality

Blowing Beast

Great power and blows the snow well into your neighbors! Solidly built and well designed. A lot more fun than shoveling!

My snow thrower does what I ask it to

It was set up leaving three inches of snow behind me. I changed it to have 3/8" clearance between the scraper and pavement, will try 1/2" next snow.

Yes I would buy again

I use it around my house in the UP of Michigan. It also is used to clean up the edge of my half mile driveway after I plow the driveway with my Boss plow. Only issue I have is that when I'm throwing snow along the edge of the driveway if it hits a frozen ice chunk it kicks like a mule and turns abruptly into the snow bank.

Love it

I use to hate having to blow snow and now I look forward to it.

Terrific snowblower

I live in an area that gets lots of snow that can, at times, be very happy. My Ariens Deluxe 30 throws the snow further than any other that I have owned and barely slows down as it powers through any snow it has encountered so far.

Good 306

I snow blowed 6 and 1/2 inches of fluffy snow today . It did its job not like the 28th and bog down the 254 on the 28th saw the bugged out when I got to the edge of the driveway but the 30in did not good job have a nice day and thank you
