This morning we had couple of inches of snow, so I've tried it for the first time. It was more than that at the beginning of the driveway where city cleaning service created a barrier of wet snow, but the snow blower worked just fine. In addition I've came home not smelling like a can of gasoline. This is my 3d snow blower - previous 2 were gas-powered, but they had trouble starting in cold weather, and snow has a tendency of arriving in winter. With this snow blower - no problem. One of the reviewers before me complained that his hands get tired of squeezing the handle. Yes, this is a security feature, and my hands did not get tired. However, I give only 4 stars because of assembly problem. The first step of the instruction says to connect the tubes of the handle while pushing in the electric cable which goes through these tubes, without, of course, damaging it. Well, the cable did not want to be pushed in! So, I've ended up disconnecting the base of the handle from the body of the device, and pulling the electric cable from another end instead of pushing it in. There was no problem of pushing the cable into the body. The whole operation took about 10 min, and required some minimal tools, e.g. a set of wrenches to work with hexagonal screw heads. So, if you are not intimidated by that - go ahead and buy this thing. I am definitely glad I did. BTW, buy the longest outdoor-rated extention cable you can.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.
