Summary:
Buy a Toro or Honda

Strengths:
Nice Toro red color

Weaknesses:
Everything from poor staring to no power in snow deeper then 2 inches

Summary:
Don't do it!!!!!!!

Strengths:
It was on sale for $459.

Weaknesses:
I think I wasted $459. It started once and then quit. I brought it back to Walmart under the 2 year warranty and was told I needed to ship it to Florida for service.

Summary:
BUY A HUSKY!!!!!!!!!!!

Strengths:
I love the fact it doesn't use much gas.

Weaknesses:
It doesn't use gas because it's been broken since the first week I bought it. When I call the hotline (in China) nobody answers. Lowes won't help me either. I'm screwed!

Summary:
I'm happy with it and so are my neighbours

Strengths:
starts everytime either with pull cord or electric starter

Weaknesses:
turning it was a bit of a problem until I learned to take it out of drive

Summary:
It works fine, so I have no idea what these other people's issues were unless they expected to blow away 6 foot drifts of wet snow in one pass. I've had Toros and Huskies and neither lived up to the hype. Hondas are way overpriced and don't perform any better.

Strengths:
Does what it says, works fine. No troubles. Clears the drive, the wife likes to use it. Electric starts every time.

Weaknesses:
They should just give you the cab for it, that's overpriced for what it is separately.

Summary:
I would highly recommend this snow blower to anyone to whom cost is an object. If you really like to spend a lot of your cash, buy an Ariens.

Strengths:
Starts on first pull so reliably that I did not use the electric start during the entire season. Works very well in all except very very wet snow but I haven't seen a snow blower that does. My previous snow blower was an MTD who manufactures Troy-Bilt and it lasted for 25 years. I also like the Troy-Bilt web site and all of the support it offers.

Weaknesses:
Can be a little difficult to turn, but power steering has made us all a bunch of wimps.

Summary:
Good product which does what is expected of it.

Strengths:
None, starts every time, clears everything I've thrown at it.

Weaknesses:
Just wish I'd known that it really isn't a Toro. One manufacturer, MTD I believe, makes this and almost all models for a majority of manufacturers. Also, I'd wish I had known it also has a Chinese engine. It runs fine but would have been nice to know.

Summary:
Great machine for the money and for the average home owner

Strengths:
Great reliability Easy starting Plenty of power

Weaknesses:
Skid plares could be made of harder steel. They wear out quickly

Summary:
waste of money

Strengths:
none

Weaknesses:
rarely starts

Summary:
Love it!

Strengths:
Started it up for the first time this season. Started right up in 3-4 seconds! Anyone that is having trouble starting theirs probably didn't put dry gas or drain the tank last year. Common problem with snowblowers.

Weaknesses:
None

Summary:
Gets the job done. Haven't snapped a shear pin yet!

Strengths:
Decent price?

Weaknesses:
The Chinese engine runs much rougher than American made Tecumseh it replaced. "Motorboats" under load - Putting on the choke slightly helps. The fancier Cub Cadet appears to be similar, but has a light, chute adjustment with flip, and easy to pivot feature. $150 more (~3 yrs ago) and probably worth it. Minor: Filler inlet is hard to judge fuel level, risk of overfilling. Corrosion starting around inlet gas cap seal. I think Lowe's regular price is list price.

Summary:
great tool!!

Strengths:
does what it is supposed to. People need to remember it isn't a front loader. Use the right tool for the right job.

Weaknesses:
none

Summary:
Great product for the price. Just cleared 14" of snow from a dirt driveway without a problem. Use fuel stabilizer all the time, every time, and you'll be fine.

Strengths:
Price, weight, maneuverability, starting.

Weaknesses:
Power.

Summary:
Great snowblower, just wish it was $400 instead of $600. Owned for 3 seasons now.

Strengths:
Strong. Does expected Job well. Starts EVERY time. (drain gas and change oil at end of every season) Does well in heavy snow. Scrapes clean even in light snow.

Weaknesses:
Broke a plastic mount for the electric start during one cold season. Still works of course. Could use a bigger gas reservoir, however still adequate.

Summary:
junk

Strengths:
0

Weaknesses:
everything

Summary:
GREAT LITTLE MACHINE, GOES THROUGH A LOT, TIP TO STARTING WHEN COLD IS TO PRIME IT LIKE 10 TIMES AND NOT THE RECOMENDED 3, NEVER HAD A PROBLEM STARTING. GREAT VALUE IN A MACHINE, 2ND WINTER OF USE IN WINTERPEG CANADA

Strengths:
EASY TO HANDLE, EASY TO STORE, 24" CUT GOOD

Weaknesses:
COULD USE CHAINS IN VERY COLD WEATHER WHEN TIRES GET HARD.

Summary:
Works well for my 250ft Driveway. Price is better than paying for someone to plow for $75-90 each time. Allows affordable DIY to snow removal.

Strengths:
Starts every time, just make sure to store it properly. Cuts through deep 24" snow, 4" slush.

Weaknesses:
Motor is a bit noisy.

Summary:
Much better than the old 1 stage w ehad before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDkabArjCQU Enjoy! We did.

Strengths:
Nice machine. A tip from and Can-Tire employee is to prime only once instread of three. It's fussy about that. With that knowledge I've had no problems. In fact, we have had fun with it at the cotage this winter. Much better than the old 1 stage w ehad before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDkabArjCQU Enjoy! We did.

Weaknesses:
The tires give good traction but need chains in loose snow.

Summary:
Junk

Strengths:
cHEAP

Weaknesses:
China engine

Summary:
Wow, that?s a raelly clever way of thinking about it!

Weaknesses:
vwLHVo Fresh thoughts, fresh view on the subject..!

Summary:
VERY dispappointed.

Strengths:
It has a nice red color

Weaknesses:
The first year we had it, there was a small hole in the fuel line. We had to completely tear it down to replace a small piece of tubing. Year 2 - the gear box broke! The shear pins were fine. Aren't they supposed to protect the gear box??! What a piece of junk for $600.

Summary:
My wife and son can use it without any problems

Strengths:
starts and runs great.

Weaknesses:
skids are not heavy enough for concrete drives

Summary:
Well well when it work

Strengths:
Works great once it gets started

Weaknesses:
Electric Start failed after the first season and cant get it start at beginning of year
