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


I bought this snow thrower due to all of the positive reviews on Amazon. I have to admit it does all that the reviews say that it does. Here are my observations:

1. Wheels---as others have said the wheels look like toy wheels, but I'm not out to impress anyone. I don't have any problem with them. They wheel the unit perfectly. You just have to tilt the unit back and let the wheels do their job.

2. Cord---The first time I used the unit I had to be careful. The second time it was easy. By the third time I was a pro at it. The cord is not a hinderance. I would prefer to take 3 seconds of my time to move a cord than to mess with gas or oil or (shudder) shovel!!

3. Assembly---I can't comment on this. I had read the Amazon reviews stating that assembly can be hard. I paid the extra fifteen dollars at Lowes and bought the machine assembled.

4. Ice and snow chute problems. It clogged once but I expected that. I was experimenting on some heavy duty ice buildup that our road crew created. I pushed the ice through and within a second it was clear.

I have a large driveway a medium sized driveway and a sidewalk to shovel. I managed to do all three plus my neighbor's driveway (large) and his sidewalk in less time than it used to take me to shovel just my medium driveway. Really, this thing is kind of fun. I did everything twice today with no backache and not getting tired. It's just like pushing a vacuum cleaner.

I bought this for Christmas and it is the BEST investment I ever made!!!!
