My driveway gets packed, wet snow from lake effect storms. This two-stage machine throws it far and keeps moving forward on its own. I used to struggle with a single-stage, but this is much easier to control and finishes the job faster.

The self-propelled drive is a game changer for my long walkway. I just guide it and it pulls itself through the snow. The 179-cc engine starts reliably after sitting in the shed all summer, which gives me confidence when a storm hits.

After a major storm left two feet of heavy snow, this blower cleared my 22-inch path without bogging down. It handles the wet, dense snow from our area well. The chute aim is easy to adjust from the operator's position.
