r/Snowblowers

Im between these two. I live in MN and the plow pushes snow into my yard from the cul-de-sac, so I always get the biggest drifts. Id be looking for something that could handle 1ft drifts for both myself and my neighbor. Im leaning toward the sho but really want to be able to justify the extra 500 to my wife. She probably wouldn't know the difference but the tracks make it look expensive haha.

Edit: Looks like the store may have just swapped pictures - it would be a non-tracked sho.

The company I work for has a “rewards shop” - so I saved up enough points to pick up my new Ariens Deluxe 28 from Home Depot. My very first snowblower!

Paid $11 in total for the unit, delivery, 3 years of coverage, and a gallon of TruFuel.

Used to hate the snow - but I think this machine may change my mind.

Got my first ever snowblower! My spouse and I purchased our first home in January of last year and promptly got absolutely pummeled with a snow storms every single week, sometimes 2 or 3 times a week after moving in! We have a fairly long driveway on a hill so it takes us nearly 5 hours to do it by hand or would cost a hundred bucks every time for the plow to come.

Would have liked to get a Honda, Ariens or Toro based on reviews from family members but budget limited thanks to unexpected expenses haha. Didn't think we would get one at all but was shocked to see this 26" 252CC Two Stage Champion brand at Canadian Tire for $999. Fingers crossed it will hold up over the winter 🤞 for the price it'll likely pay itself off after one season 😂

Was just looking at these Yarbo units and saw they have a map your driveway tool. It got me thinking...
