I bought this snowthrower just before Nemo struck. I was pleasantly surprised at how easily the snowthrower cleared my driveway and a long walkway. <br /><br />The chute was easy to set and control. The snow was thrown approximately 20 feet.<br /><br />This model also worked well at getting through the three foor pile left by the municipal snow plough.

Comment:
Used 3 times first season after purchase; machine performed well. We had little snow after that. 2 weeks after expiration of warranty, the engine failed admidst smoke and noise! The machine is not warrantied by Toro, but rather by Briggs & Stratton. Thanks to my local dealer's continued efforts, Briggs & Stratton finally agreed to pay for parts but not labor.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
