Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025 Get it now!


I ordered this thrower AFTER the really big snow over Christmas (Denver)but it arrived just in time for another big one. The Toro has no trouble cleaning the drive down to pavement. It really does throw snow a long way. Our thrower makes an arc of snow in the air which looks just like the neighbor's big 2-stage down the street. (and it's much quieter) I thought having a cord trailing would be a pain, but it was fine. Wife helps when here, but I was able to work alone without a problem. The handle is a little too short for me. I have to bend too much and it tires the back somewhat. My cords are long enough to reach my own drive and walk, but not long enough to do the neighbors so that's up to Mr 2-stage. I thought the the impeller blade would wear quickly on concrete but see very little. Overall I am happy with the purchase. I believe I will be able to replace worn parts myself. It is light enough to carry easily. The price seems higher than you might expect for an electric but it delivers on it's claims. It is also small enough to fit easily out of the way in the garage. If it lasts a couple of years I'll call it a bargain. Glad I have it.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.

For an electric powered snowblower this machine does a pretty decent job. Granted it could never compare to a gas powered machine but it is very useful. We live in West Michigan and get a lot of lake-effect snow showers. This machine will take on snow up to 10 inches deep. It works best on "dry" snow but will work on "wet" snow also - it just wont throw it as far. For where we live I use it mostly for quick maintenance or touch up clearing of snow and for sidewalks and other areas that the snowplow can't get to.

PROS: No mixing of oil and gas, small and convenient.

CONS: cord management.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.
