Comment:
I owned product for 2 years. I tried to use it 5 times, i was only successful twice. Honda tries to tell me its the gas even though i use stable and when it does run it works fine on the gas in the tank. Also the waranty does not cover gas related issues this can mean anythinG. BY THE WAY MY 20 YEAR OLD LAWN MOWER RUNS FINE ON THE SAME GAS AND STARTS 1ST OR 2ND PULL AFTER SITTING AL WINTER.

Comment:
I have owned Toros and Hondas and the Honda is built far better. My hs520a handled 17 driveways with a minimum of 8 inches of snow with no problem. I had it running for well over 3 hours straight and no problems. It also has superior throwing power and a stronger engine than Toro. Remember I have owned both and Toro really doesn't come close in performance or quality. You pay more for a Honda but you won't regret it for a moment!

Comment:
Used on a deck. Good if snow is 9 inches or less. Not powerful enough for higher depth. Chute adjustment handle extends beyond the unit at 90 degree angle. Cannot get close to a wall.
