As good as advertised |
I live in the near west Chicago burbs (Oak Park area). This area was especially hard hit with snow last winter, and this winter has proved to be more of the same. My apartment building has a communal shovel, but shovelling manually 2-3 times a week is not only aggravating, it's tiring and time-consuming.
Finally, I said to myself, "Self, it's time to buy an electric snow thrower." I went with the Toro electric snow shovel. Ordered it December 22nd, and it arrived on Christmas Eve.
Only today was there finally enough snow to warrant using the thing.
Happily, it worked exactly as advertised. It took a long time for me to untangle the extension cord, but that was my own fault. Once I had enough cord length, I was able to dig out my parking spot easily, so easily that I felt obliged to dig out three neighboring parking spaces as well. I know. I'm awesome.
Addendum: I live in an apartment building where the lot is plowed sporadically at best, and the only time my parking spot is plowed is on the rare occasion that I'm actually out when the snow plow guy actually cleans the lot, provided he feels generous enough to clean out empty parking spaces.
Using a regular shovel, it can often take me an hour, sometimes more, just to dig out my parking space and salt it. Including the time it took me to unravel my extension cord, I spent slightly over 40 minutes digging out four parking spaces and salting my own space this afternoon.
The pros:
Easy to use: There's a slight bit of effort required to keep the thing going, but once you get the hang of it, you can have your space shovelled in next to no time.
Power: Yeah, this is the bottom of the line Toro snow thrower, but even with that, it's enough to throw the snow a good 20-25 feet.
Weight/size: This snow thrower is light enough and small enough to only take up a small amount of space. This is especially important if you can't lift too much and/or you don't have much space to store your stuff. As I live in a studio apartment, this was something I had to consider.
Con:
Electricity: Fortunately, my apartment building has a power outlet right by the back door, so I was able to run the extension cord through that and dig out my space and a few others. On a few occasions, the cord got unplugged from the snow thrower, so I had to put it back together.
Uneven spots: I knew about this going in, but it still is a drawback. This won't clean down to the pavement in uneven spots. Still, I was able to clean down to the pavement on most of my space, so it performed as expected.
Lack of direction: today's snow was soft and powdery, so a bit of snow came back at me. The higher end model has a directional chute. Still, this did the job.
All in all, I got what I expected and a bit more out of this. I'm already glad I bought this, and my back thanks me, too. |

Power shovel is electric, therefore no maintanence, which is a big plus. It is also lightweight and easy to use. I've used it to clear our deck, walkway, and because it's so lightweight, I've been able to take it out of the window to clear the roof. On the downside, you can't let the snow get too deep and you can't direct the direction of the snow being thrown. The good outweighs the bad. We're very happy with ours. |

It wasnt quite as sturdy as represented and appeared more heavy duty with an adjustable blower. I decided to keep it but perhaps I would have picked another unit |

Have used it twice at our mountain vacation home. works great on large deck but not well on stairs, probably due to railings. Mostly purchased to throw snow off large deck which usually receives 6 to 8 inches of snow each storm. |

Excellent product-really throws the snow. Only wish it had a method to throw snow to side other than having to point it. |
