Questions & Answers
I appreciate you asking about the snow blower, I regret to inform you that it is not self-propelled A propelled object.
In order to operate this snow blower, two 20-volt batteries are required, which are charged separately. With or without the battery and charger, I think you can buy the blower.
I've experienced about 40 minutes continuous use on a full charge, but that may vary.

The main points to take away are - It is very light in weight Assembles easily* Easy to operate* Plastic Auger may be unreliable*, but not a major concern* Brought 5" of heavy, wet snow, but that was near its limit
2 to 2-foot blast distance* It took a little more than an hour for the battery packs to charge fully. I ordered this last Monday morning, it arrived last Friday, then it snowed Apparently, for the record, there was a "chance" of snow in the forecast, so I didn't bother to get this snowed in, but I woke up to nearly 4 inches of heavy, wet In the end, it only took me 20 minutes to assemble everything and it should really have just taken 10, but I managed to put both handles on backwards as a result of not paying attention. There are no gaps in the assembly- It was fast and straight-forward, and I only had to refer to the directions for two steps to ensure I was doing them correctly (maybe I should have read them first? two hours to fully charge. So when I went back out, I found about 5 inches of wet, Having charged both batteries to a full charge before I began my run, I cleared my 30'-long trail and started the run. Driveway plus 295 feet A little more than 33" wide or more). Because my car was in the driveway, I did not have to clear the driveway, but I had to do about 30-45 minutes of work a day after that There are 40% left in the battery. In the item description, this is advertised as having a 20' throw, but I was able to find no more than 10' of I don't have any complaints there since it cleared our driveway perfectly well. In about 50 to 60 seconds In the first 75' of the long straight sidewalk, the chute started to clog and choke, throwing little more than two feet of snow The following is a transliteration of 3' and A turn of the chute cleared it, and it was able to continue throwing. There is nothing there but the scraper and a very close proximity Although it effectively cleans the driveway and sidewalk, at the expense of catching every crack, its upside is that it keeps going round in circles. I am a little worried about how long the auger will last because it is made of plastic. On the website and on the web, I can't find any mention of where to buy an auger - the manual describes how to replace an auger, but I can't find any mention of purchasing one That would cost a lot to replace, so I'm not sure what the cost would be. It doesn't matter if the price is around $50 or $100, but I feel that a $100 or more price range would seem to be an unattractive hit a 4x4 landscaping board with the thrower, and it stopped without apparent damage, so I'm hoping it will hold up well. Stakes will be positioned in those corners to prevent damage in the future. As the name implies, it is extremely lightweight, and it does not propulsion itself. Because of its light weight, the lack of self-propulsion is fine, but without it, I believe it is easy to push too quickly and leave the thrower stuck, especially when trying to keep up with the cast. I was pushing, backing up, then pushing again to clear the snow at times. It was also fine, but it's quite different from your regular snow thrower if you've used a Toro Snow Thrower in the past. On the other hand, the discharge chute and the articulation are awkward compared to traditional snow throwers. The crank to turn it only turns about 180 degrees, and the chute rotates 180 degrees is hard to turn 90° or even 30° smoothly, and it is difficult to turn it by by one degree To keep snow out of these areas, you have to turn the rotation crank 45 degrees in order to keep snow at a distance. Thankfully, I grew up using a self-cleaning dishwasher, one of the big heavy Toro models I remember from my childhood These snow throwers had a lot of power, and they were loud. As much as I enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, I couldn't deny that I appreciated the change as well. Additionally, there are cheaper electric snow throwers with more power available, but as I cleared the sidewalk all the way up to my neighbor's home, I observed that battery power has an advantage over being tethered to an electric cord - it allows you to move more freely. Because I am not sure I could have cleared the sidewalk if the tool were connected to a power cord, I am a little unsure about the value proposition of a $400 unit over a $200-$300 unit The corded unit has a 250 watt equivalent. This is probably a choice that is personal to me, but I am pleased with it. While I am not sure I would want to use it for more than 6", I think if it is a colder, drier snow, it might work, so I am looking forward to using it more this winter and seeing how well it does under various I plan to keep this review updated if future observations come in.
This concept of a battery operated snow blower is good. Basically, if you have a short driveway with light snow, about 4 inches or so, as well as a short sidewalk with the same amount of snow, it's a great little snowblower. If the snowplow chops the snow up and it is a bit more compact, then this snow blower will be able to get through it, although it drains the batteries more quickly. Although it is operating on its own, you will have to push it through the snow when it is in use. Two of the photos I have included in this review are the ones I took after I used the product and there is snow on them. The surface can simply be wiped off to keep it clean. Unless I have to deal with the snowplow, I prefer our snow blower as long as I don't have to deal with the snow strewn throughout the yard.
I won't lie, I was a little hesitant about it because of a few As a newer product, it has the advantage of being relatively inexpensive. There weren't as many reviews by actual users as I would have liked, as most of the reviews were from product testers. My second problem is that I had purchased another battery operated snow blower from a different brand, and both the one I ordered and the warranty replacement both died within five minutes of operation. The Worx blower is different from the other brand. When I opened the box, I immediately felt the quality. After the assembly was complete, the batteries were charged in about two hours and I went outside to put it to the test.
The snow I released across the snowfield ranged from a dusting to 6 inch drifts with ice on There was no hesitation from this blower as it blew through it. Although there was more ice on the snow, I was still getting a 10 to 15 foot throw from the blower, which was perfect considering how cold it was. When I finished sweeping the driveway, the long corner lot sidewalk and the deck, the batteries had only one light left. The only moment of anxiety came when I hit a deeper drift where it was pretty much As a result of my previous blower experience, I flinched and panicked when the snow blower stopped running. Upon closer inspection, the blades only needed to be cleared away, and it was ready to go. The only reason I am giving this four stars is because I have not yet had a good snow storm to truly test it out. In spite of the icy conditions, the plastic blades held up really well. However, I am concerned about the longevity of this material. It is an awesome purchase and another great Worx product so far. I will make adjustments as needed once I test it more.
We just received 3 inches of snow in the Midwest. My computer stalled immediately when I attempted to use this product. There was a possibility that it was too much for them Snow was blown away in two stages using a snowblower, leaving a thin layer of snow scattered across the entire driveway. A second attempt to get the snow to the pavement was made. The process stalled instantly once I returned the product. I would not recommend it.
In the past, I have used various worx tools and found them to be convenient and effective, so I thought this snowblower would be similar. It turns out I was I wasted my money on this. It stalls even when just a few inches are inserted. There is no point in doing I find it hard to push through wet cement, either, because it's so heavy.
It would be easier for me if there was something small that could handle only a few inches of snow so I wouldn't have to mess with my big snow blower. I am in love with this.
It cut through our first 7 inches of snow with ease, and it was easy to clean. I would have thought pushing a shovel would be much easier. Well done.
When it comes to removing snow, this lightweight blower packs a powerful punch. It is a light weight snow blower that I can use to clear my driveway in a short amount of time. I also enjoy using it. When I get a deep snow, it can take a while to remove it, so I use the batteries for the entire job. Due to my overall satisfaction with this unit, I felt it was worth it to purchase two extra batteries and an extra charging unit in the event of a deep snowstorm or if I want to do a second driveway without recharging the You did a fantastic job,.
