Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This Snow Joe was an epic fail across the board. Bad experience overall. Looked great out of the box, I bought a special extension cord that was heavy gauge and all weather. Arrived at our mountain cabin at night, so the light was going to really help as I cleared a path on the driveway of the 6-8" snow. Plugged it it, made four passes about 30' long on light, dry powder snow with the light blazing. Snow blew far, directional nozzle was easy to use and it seemed great. Put everything away indoors to clear the rest in the morning in the light. Five minutes into the next mornings use it began to run rough and smelled like electrical melting wires, so we stopped immediately. Checked everything, let it stay in a warm room and tried again next day, same extreme burning smell, rough running weakly and the safety switch was cheap plastic mechanism that would not engage half the time. Snow Joe died after only two 15 minutes uses maybe making 10 total passes in light snow for a total running time of 30 minutes.
