| Up here in Wisconsin we're pretty much guaranteed to get snow during the winter months, however, we don't always get a lot at one time. For snowfalls with a depth of 8" and on up I use a larger snowblower. The powershovel works great for less snow, although, if you're not clearing a large area it'll work great for most any depth. It also works well with both heavy wet and light dusty snowfalls. It really throws the snow, the distance varies depending on the consistency of the snow and the angle that you hold the shovel, but overall I'd say 15 feet. It works perfectly on concrete and asphalt surfaces and with a little technique it'll work well in rough areas. The point is it saves your back, it saves time, and it might even save your life if you have a bad heart. And, if you don't mind clearing snow it is fun to use. It is similar in weight and function to using a weed whip, it can be a workout but nothing near the back breaking workout that you get using an ordinary shovel. It's powered by electricity so you obviously need a cord. It is very important to purchase a cord that will remain flexible in low temperatures and don't skimp on the length. The cord can come unplugged. Some cords come with a locking feature to prevent this or you can be creative and use a plastic zip tie. Hope this helps. |
Toro Terrific!!!

| Ordered with "tongue in cheek" a power snow shovel for under $100.00...would it work? I was pleasantly surprised cleared my deck in no time at all even when the snow had melted and partially refroze. Where it was deep I skimmed off the top layer and it cleared it down to the deck boards without damage. You can't get more bang for the buck....delivered in 2 days...Great service and product! |
You wouldn't believe what this little guy did...

| I KNOW it says you are only supposed to shovel it with 6-8 inches of snow, and keep it on the ground. But in the Storm of 2003, with 28 inches of snow, this shovel was able to reduce the total job by "skimming it off the top". And it saved a lot of wear and tear on backs and arms. Fantastic product! |
This is better than you think...

| I pre-ordered this item thinking that it was not too much money and lets see how it works. I live in a Condo and dont have to do the snow removal, but there are times you want to do it. This was so much fun, it works just like a regular snow blower and it takes the snow right down to the drive way, I would recomend this item to any one who has just walks or decks to do, it worked great on the drive way but does take time. But most of all it was FUN.............. |
Make snow shoveling FUN!

Living in Maine, the shoveling snow can be a backbreaking experience. Well not anymore, removing snow from decks, steps, etc. is a breeze. What usually took me hours to remove, now only takes me minutes.
Great acquisition!!! |
