They were predicting 3-6 inches of snow south of Denver for the weekend. My two year old gas powered 5 HP Honda (which I bought because of it's supposed durability) had been in the repair shop for two weeks and wouldn't be ready for another week because of the repair shop backlog.
I wasn't looking forward to shoveling again, so I read all the great reviews of the Toro 1800 on Amazon.
I ordered it Friday night after the deadline for second day air shipments. I was amazed that it was delivered to my house on Monday morning at 9:10 AM! This was two days earlier than I expected it. I couldn't be happier or more impressed with both Amazon and DHL.
The Toro handled the 4 inches that were on the Driveway Monday morning, and also cleared some small 10 inch drifts. It threw the snow just as far as my Honda 5 HP gas snowblower. If it threw it any further my neighbors would be upset because it would be going onto their driveways and sidewalks. In other words, it threw it just the right distance for my driveway and sidewalks. I have a two car wide driveway which is about 80 feet long.
Right now I see no reason why I shouldn't sell my gas model. I definitely plan to keep the Toro electric because it's so much easier to use and maintain. The Toro electric has plenty of power and does just as well as the gas powered Honda 5 HP.
Great product!
