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

Overall its a good litter snowblower. Does the job quickly with little effort. We have had a very heavy snowfall this year, and this machine has handled even the heavy wet chunks at the bottom of our average suburban driveway. I would buy again.
Pros- lightweight
- no need for gas or refueling
- mimimal parts that can break.
- even my 12 year old diva daughter can handle this machine with ease.
- no need for routine service, at the end of the year, I will simply hang it up in the shed and wait for next year's snow.

Cons- need to work around a long frozen extension cord, which we fight with to wind up at the end of each use- this is the worst part of this machine.
- plastic rotor blade will probally need to be replaced in the next year or so from wearing down or the edges chipping
- screws attaching the directional chute to the body of the blower, had to be replaced with a longer screw and wing nut, to provide a tight fit. The factory supplied screws did not tighten well causing the chute to blow upwards. In fact, one of the factory supplied screws blew off initially.
- You have to tilt the machine forward to get the blade close enough to clear to the pavement. (but is easy to do)
- I dont think the plastic blades could clear large hard frozen chunks- some judgement is needed.
I think the machine would strain if it had to remove greater than 6 inches at a time, Since machine is so easy to use, we cleared our driveway more frequently, and it went quickly.Get more detail about Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025.
