Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Great snowblower for the money. Very easy to use, maneuverable and fairly light. One warning which I hope helps your purchase. Do not buy the 16/3 orange 100 foot extension cord which is currently shown on Amazon as "Frequently Bought Together" for this machine. (16 gauge with 3 conductors.) The snow blower is rated at 13 amps and this is a 10 amp extension cord which is not enough. In the manufacturer's instruction manual there is a chart which shows longer cords require even higher amperage ratings than 13. If you're like me you'll want a 100 foot cord, which means minimum 15 amp rating. Amazon shows under "Also Bought" a number of cords which are 12 gauge and 15 amp. They are more expensive but this is a safety issue. There is one for Extreme conditions which stays flexible in the very cold, and in hindsight I wish I got. I am surprised how rigid the extension cord gets when lying on a cold driveway. Otherwise, the snow blower itself represents a great value. Not as powerful as bigger gas machines, but I am having no problem keeping up with snowfalls. Plus it is quiet, has no gas or combustion odors, and starts in the bitter cold without fuss.
