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


I have previously reviewed this product last month with a 5-star review, but felt compelled to write another review based on the OUTSTANDING performance of this little wonder during one of Boston's largest snowfalls in history this weekend. I live just north of Boston, where we got 36" of snow. I again admit that when I first took the Toro out and the machine sank in the snow so I could no longer see it that I wished I had bought a gas powered snowblower. Was I wrong...again!!! This little machine was able to completely remove all the snow from my 6-car driveway and all walkways. Granted, this machine is not designed for three feet of snow, and I often had to break the piles down with a shovel first. Still, this machine did 90% of the effort. What would have taken me 4+ hours before took 1 hour with this machine. It was funny to watch all my neighbors with their big gas beasts laughing at me when I first took out my plastic snow savior. In the end, I was the one that was laughing since I was done way before they were, and didn't have to deal with the countless stalls my neighbors did (and they have smaller driveways!). I also had a few people walking by asking me about the machine as they have never seen it before. Many people want an electric alternative but think the little Toro can't handle it. Hopefully I was able to change a few minds as well! If this machine can handle 3' of snow, it can do anything. I can't say enough about this machine, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.

I hemmed and hawed for over a year on this product before relenting to myself this past fall and ordering one. All I can say is that I should have placed the order over a year ago. WOW what a powerful machine. I just cleared 14 inches this past weekend from the "Blizzard of 2005" snow. It ate it up with no problem. I was done before most of my neighbors lugged out their beheamoths and got them started. I live in Northern New Jersey, so this machine can clearly "cut it" for the kind of snow we normally get. It being electric, the "cord management" can be a bit tricky, but well worth the minor aggravation. I like the fact that since it's electric, I can leave it in the house by the back door if I know it's going to snow overnight. I literally plugged it in and went out the back door, down the steps and onto the driveway. Fabulous machine!Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.
