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

Yeah, the only problem with this machine is that it doesn't look as manly as a big two stage gas snowblower ... but it works really well and never breaks down. Your neighbors won't laugh long once they see what this machine can do.

If you mainly get 7" of snow or less, then this will do the job amazingly well. After over 4 years of ownership, it still works perfectly.

It's very light weight and can be held off the ground using the handle on the chasis ... for skim lowering of a drift or bank.

I can testify that it takes serious abuse and keeps on working. It throws the wet stuff pretty darn good and in the typical snows, it can throw it 20-30' for real! You can start it in the middle of 3 car driveway and throw it over either side.

It's a nice side for doing areas you wouldn't want to touch with a larger 2-stage blower. Don't use it on rocks or gravel, however -- duh.

Toro makes top notch snow blowers up and down the line. If you don't mind dealing with the electric cord, this unit is really great. This is not the best choice for someone who gets snow measured in feet on a regular basis. It's very lightwight compared to almost anything else ... and always starts.

I reccomend running the electrical cord through the handle sqaure and tying it in a know before plugging it in ... so the cord doesn't come keep coming loose while operating it.

I have a tractor w/ 42" plow and a 24" two stage snowblower ... but I really find I can give up this little powerhouse ... it still throws it the farthest and is 100% reliable in over 4 years of Colorado snowclearing abuse.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.
