I purchased this Toro 1800 Electric snowthrower last year. I moved to the Midwest 2 years ago. After the first year of shoveling by hand I vowed never to do that again as my back suffered for doing so. This snowthrower does great for 2 feet of snow or less. It throws snow effectively as far as others that cost twice as much. The Toro works at its best after the last of the snow has fallen. I does not work very well after a car has driven over the snow down the driveway. The snowthrower has difficulty scraping the compacted snow with its plastic scraper. The swivel chute has trouble turning in the cold weather, not sure why but its a very basic system that you crank by hand to change the direction of the snow being thrown. Despite these minor discomforts its a great machine that makes an easy time of the snow removal and I no longer dread the snow season. The two year manufacturers warranty is great if it fails to perform you can get repairs done within that period without any cost to you. For my money this was the best option for me as I watched my neighbors trying to start his gas powered snowthrower and by the time he succeded I was finished and resting in my living room drinking my cup of coffee looking out the window at him.
