Low Price Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025


This thing is pretty incredible. Just got it today, and it's already snowed 4-5 times and previously I have just been shoveling.

My driveway was already plowed by the time I got this, so I had to try it out on other things, like the 2-3ft snow banks that haven't been touched by a shovel since the beginning of the snow season, or the banks that I created by shoveling, also fairly high.

I simply placed this thing on top of the snow bank and pushed it back and forth on top of it, and it ate away large sections of the snow bank at a time. It even cleaned up the ice/slushy stuff where my property meets the road.

I'd rate this 4.5/5 since the thing is literally one big piece of Tonka plastic... but since that isn't an option I'd rather give it a 5 than a 4. The height adjustment is also a little flakey... doesn't seem to hold down, but I think I may need to tighten it, as I've been wearing to strip the plastic like I've heard in some reviews.

Edit: The snow flow height adjustment seems fine after I tightened the nuts. I was pushing on the head of the bolt to try to prevent the plastic square insert from stripping.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.
