Title: Annoyingly fast shipping!!! (Ordered 11/5, delivered 11/7)
Review: So the snow blower is still in box in my garage.Photo is delivery guy and I carrying the box into my garage.Arrived TWO days after order was placed, which is freaking awesome accept it isnât supposed to be here for another 8-10 days and the seller never passed along my request to have the courier contact me for scheduling delivery since I work during the day and did not want the snow blower sitting alone in my driveway unsupervised. If I hadnât checked the tracking on Amazon out of pure boredom I would have missed that it was being delivered today.I was able to cancel an appt I had at my job and run home to meet the courier to accept delivery. I would not have been able to do this had fed ex not allowed me to track the delivery truck. I am also annoyed that for a nearly $700 item I was not asked to sign to accept delivery.Those unique issues aside, this is my 2nd snowblower of this manufacturer. 7 or 8 years ago I purchased a previous, nearly identical model (this new one has lighting, which I am really looking forward to as I do all my snow blowing at night).That previous model finally developed a steady gas leak. Iâm great with my hands but not when it comes to engines. A coworker loves to work on small engines and cars, so I have offered the previous model to him to rebuild as he was looking for one to refurbish for the daycare center his daughter owns and operates.The previous model was the envy of my immediate neighbors, especially after accidentally hitting the one with the thrown snow from my driveway while she was in her own haha (this fact was the reason I stuck with the same manufacturer).I never had any problems beyond replacing shear pins (I think theyâre called) that lock the tines in for rotation, which is to be expected in WI winters. The sad part is I am hoping for this to be my last winter in WI, so it seemed annoying to buy another snow blower this close to target moving date, but I look forward to seeing my neighborsâ faces when I gift this snow blower to them before moving (because thatâs the kind of guy I am).I hope the above indicates how happy I actually am with my past experience with this brands products.If I do not update this review it means I was a VERY happy customer with this model and would recommend it for purchase.

Title: So far, no complaints
Review: I recd it two days after ordering it.It was packaged super securely, in a cardboard box within a steel bolted frame, on a small pallet.Install was a breeze, took me abt an hour and while the quick guide has brief instructions and tiny pics, the full manual has detailed info and images for assembly and operation.After assembly, I added some oil as specified, and reg 87 gas, it powered up on first try by electric start.Yet to try it out on snow but no complaints so far.——————-02-08-2020———————I’ve used it in three snowfalls above 5″ – once when the snow was wet and slushy, real heavy; it performed as I hoped.The second time I used it, the auger would not spin but the motor would move the blower forward when engaged. Removing the black plastic cover (4 small hex bolts) revealed the belt has come off the drive shaft. It was a five min affair to put it back on the shaft and tighten the pulley from the other end of the cable at the handle.Three more snowfalls and that issue has not occurred.The chute will start pointing forward when the snowblower is moving, I put a rubber band between the chute handle and the top bar and that mostly fixed that issue.Starts up fast, tune the choke so its not spluttering with the little red knob and let it run for 3-5 mins to warm up and have zero issues clearing snow and the huge wall that the city plow leaves at the end of the driveway.A good buy!

Title: Piece of crap snow blower that lasts two times
Review: I’ve had a snowblower before and this one works decently enough. While it is compact, my issue with it is how stiff it is to alter the height in which the snow is thrown and swiveling the chute. Both are extremely stiff to move. While it’s a good thing to have some way to keep the chute locked in, you practically have to pop a wheelie on the chute height just to get it to shift and yank it almost sideways to adjust what direction it points. So adjusting where the snow goes on the fly is much more difficult.The drive shaft works well enough and does a good job of moving snow but it does put a little strain on you as there’s not enough leverage on the bars to do what you need it to do.Update: This product is a giant pile of crap. The auger crapped out on me towards the end of my second time running the god damned thing. I had an Ariens before that ran for 6 years even kicking up rocks and other debris. Two tiny snow storms and this piece of crap machine broke down on me.Do NOT buy this product. Save your money and buy an ariens or Briggs and Stratton.Update 2: The company emailed me with videos to fix it. I applaud them for having those up but still doesnât help with the fact that my machine isnât working. The belt is fine, the sheer pins are good. Just no idea why itâs not working. Since it doesnât seem to work the way it should, Iâve decided to return it. Iâve seen some reviews that say it works great, but seeing the others talking about the same issues looks like a manufacturing issue vs a user issue.
