I bought this snowblower a week ago, just before we got 24 inches of snow in 2 days. The biggest thing confusing me while shopping for snowblowers is that they all seem to advertise engine size as cc, which does'nt mean much really. This snowblower says it is 208 cc, but horsepower is a better measurement for me, so if you were wondering, the manual rates the briggs and straton engine as 6HP. Assembly was pretty quick, just a couple of cleavis pins and a hex bolt. You also should adjust the skid pads as they are positioned all the way up for shipping. The engine was even already full of oil. Starting the snowblower was easy using the electric starter - I didn't realize that it plugs into a wall outlet, but it wasn't a big deal for me. The headlight is actually more useful than I thought it would be. The fastest reverse speed is still pretty slow, but you can always just pull it back yourself if you're in a hurry. Forward speeds are very adjustable, but you will probably use the slowest speed most of the time if you live in a climate that has you looking at this beast in the first place.
This snowblower had plenty of power to tackle our record setting 1 day snowfall of 16 inches. It throws really far, like 20-30 feet far. This modle comes with a four way control joystick for directing the throw chute left, right, up and down. The movement of the chute is way easier than my last snowblower, and I'm glad I paid extra for that feature. The only issue I really had was that there is a bit too much "play" in the chute control, so it tended to wander a bit if left on it's own too long. I'm guessing there is an adjustment I can make somewhere to fix that. The tires seemed to have decent traction, although they did tend to spin when going through the plow burm at the start of the driveway. Not enough to warrant chaining them up though.
As this is a relatively new modle, I was not able to find much for user reviews before buying this, so I was a bit nervous, but so far no regrets on buying this snowblower. I will try and update this review toward the end of the season when I have more experience with it. If you need a snowblower now, this one seems like a good bet.
Update 6/9/2011 - Well I made it though the winter. We had out last snowfall in May, so winter was having a hard time letting go. I'm glad to report this snowblower handled everything Minnesota could throw at it with no problems. Always started right up and did not once get clogged, even with the heavy wet stuff in March. The wandering throw chute continued to be a minor annoyance but certainly not a deal breaker. Very satisfied with this one. We'll see if she starts as easy after sitting all summer though. I drained the gas and ran it to empty before storing, so here's hoping.
