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


I've noticed a lot of the reviews are from a few years back, and thought I'd add my two cents.

I got this contraption last year (2006) after I was tired of constantly shoveling my driveway. We had several snow storms dumping at least 6 inches of snow at a time. Of course once I got it, we didn't get but 2 inches! It blasted the 2 inches like it was nothing; I didn't get a chance to really test it until this year. 6 inches of snow cleared with no problems! A very nice feature on this unit is the crank'n aim snow chute. Some other models in it's price range only gives you the option to throw the snow straight forward. Being about to easily shift the chute make doing 200ft driveway a breeze. 200ft, yup that's one long extension cord... Happy Snow Blowin!

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


I was looking for an electric snow thrower, surveyed all the competitors our there, and opted for the Toro with all the bells and whistles, but I have to say I was extremely disappointed. I used it on only 3 inches of snow and the plastic blades cracked in half midway through clearing my driveway. I think they hardened because of the extreme cold and don't see how they could ever hold up during the winter. I'm returning this plastic blade Toro and going with another electric unit I found in my search that had a better price, more power, larger clearing width and steel blades.
