Ratings & Reviews for Toro Power Max 60-volt 26-in Two-stage Self-propelled Battery Snow Blower (Battery Not Included) (Charger Not Included)

Awesome Snow Blower!

Coming from a 50+ year old Ariens snow blower is just total night and day. No more smelly gas or oil changes, just charge the batteries and blast the snow away. The joy stick for repositioning the chute doesn't require slouching over and turning a crank like my old machine. I think my favorite thing about it is how nimble the machine is. Build quality seems pretty good. The heated hand grips and head light are very nice touches as well. The snow blower was the second to last thing in my house I ...

Toro 60V is a disaster

Bought this two years ago with a 60V lawn mower, weed wacker, and blower. The weed wacker and blower work great on the 60V system. Lawn mower and snow blower are a disaster. I don't have any issues with battery life, but the machine is severely underpowered. Light fluffy snow with zero wind can maybe throw about 6-7ft. The chute struggles to clear snow in the lowest forward setting, and I'm always having to shovel after it's done.

As Advertised! Works Great!

Full disclosure Toro sent me this product to test. You can see my experiences here: https://youtu.be/dIHg2DOTVC0 That being said I was impressed. The machine was quiet, powerful, fast, easy to use and I believe does what it was advertised to do. I did not have the battery range problems that others have described in their reviews. With the two 7.5 batteries and in 6" of wet snow I was able to do my driveway, large sidewalks, neighbors driveway and sidewalk, plus more and it still had 1 bar on ...

Poor battery life and a beast to handle

I bought this 60v 24” snowblower summer of 2024 and was eager to tackle the snow. My driveway will handle maybe 10 small cars and the battery does not last long enough to finish with 3” of snow - even on eco-mode. Top that off that it is a beast to manage. When going in a straight line it will handle all the snow but when it comes to turning around, it takes all I have to turn - I call it a beast to manage. Throwing snow is the only reason I give one star.

Poo0r battery life

Purchased on 11/20/2024, had our first snow, was only 4 inches. Read the fine print, it is advertised to clear up to 20 cars, didn't even do 15. Now I have to wait 10 hours to charge 2 batteries. If you have a small driveway go ahead, but don't believe the 20 car clearing

Snow removal great, batteries suck

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The machine works great. Throws powder snow real good. Wet snow the machine has trouble. I use 3/7.5 amp batteries. During powder snow batteries last for a four car driveway 12” deep. Wet snow 6” deep the batteries just clears a 4 car driveway on the eco mode. The charge indicators on the machine has 2 bars full but machine shuts down and beeps the batteries are depleted.

Issues out of the box

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the new snow blower for the first 3 times a week ago and the Quick Stick no longer works to move the discharge chute to the left or right. After removing the cover to where the chute control rod enters the gear assembly, it became apparent that the rod now rotates freely within the gear when it twists. It barely enters the gear extension and thus ate through the plastic, and not because I forced anything incorrectly. It looks like bad...

Big mistake - not ready for prime time.

I bought this off of Craigslist late in the snow season. I paid what I thought would be a good price if it performed as any snow blower should. My problem is that the batteries get too hot when really pushing the heavier snow, then it shuts down. I get around this by only seating one battery at a time. As the snow blower beeps and shuts down, I can just put a fresh battery and keep going. Not the way it should work, but without a valid receipt, this is how it has to be done.

Haven’t used yet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Haven’t used it yet but it looks cool, lol every other product I bought from Toro has been perfect so far

Quite and Easy to Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I purchased this machine in hopes that when he’s gone I could operate it. We’ve only had the opportunity to use it once, because of lack of snow and buying it late in the season. We were very happy with how easy it was to operate it and like having the batteries. It’s so much quieter.

Great electric snow blower.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great machine that gets the job done in one charge. The three big snows we had this year were no problem. It is easy to use, incredibly sturdy, and I love the directional handle for directing snow.

Toro will avoid backing up the warranty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the 60v 26” Snowblower in December 2021. One of the 7.5aH batteries stopped working in December 2023. They come with a 3 year warranty. An authorized Toro dealer has not been able to get Toro to warranty and replace the battery in 3 months now. It’s registered, receipts, etc. but no luck. The authorized dealer has spoken with their Toro rep many times about it. My advice, run as fast as you can from Toro since they unfortunately are no...

Toro forever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this a month ago, wish I would have pulled the trigger sooner. I have the lawn mower, single stage snowblower, and other yard tools , was a little hesitant if I would lose power with a two stage compared with gas two stage but it went through it like butter.

Not enough time to give a full review.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It looks nice, but have been unable to use it. No snow. Can't give anymore information on the snow blower, because the last snow I received was, four days before I bought the new Toro Snow Blower. So if you want me to give you a more in depth review you will have to wait until I get more snow.
