Snowblowers: Ariens vs Husqvarna - UPDATED with decision
Think I'd go with an EGO Electric snow blower, eliminate having to fuel it up, change oil, just pop in a battery and go, and the dang things are light weight, self propelled and have heated grips!

They have 6 models, all kinds of options, or you can get a snow brush which is better than a shovel and cheaper than a blower if you live in areas that get snow but not, NH middle of winter stuff.

45 minute run time in dampish snow (based on several YouTube reviews) and battery cool down and recharge time is a non-starter in this part of the country.

Sorry I missed this thread because I'd have recommended the Toro Powermax. I have the 928. Cast iron differential. No sheer pins to deal with. Year 5 with my current one and not an issue, it's a beast. My last one went over 10 years before needing a drive belt. I lost it in the divorce about 8 years ago and it's still going strong as far as I know.




These go to eleven.
