Pros:This snowblower has exceeded my expectations in multiple ways. First and foremost, the battery life is incredible. I managed to clear my entire driveway and sidewalks on a single charge, even after a heavy snowfall. The dual battery system is a game-changer, providing the extra power needed for tougher jobs. It’s also surprisingly quiet compared to gas-powered blowers, making early morning snow removal much more neighbor-friendly. Which I did plenty of. The machine is lightweight and easy to maneuver, which is a huge plus for someone who doesn’t want to wrestle with heavy equipment. The build quality feels robust, and the adjustable handle height is a nice touch for ergonomic comfort.Cons:There are a couple of downsides to consider. Firstly, the price is on the higher end for a snow blower, which might be a dealbreaker for some. Also, while the battery life is impressive, it does take a few hours to fully recharge, so having a backup battery or two is almost a necessity for larger properties or back-to-back snowstorms. It does have a little harder time with really wet snow so getting it as soon as possible is good to do.Overall:This snowblower is a fantastic investment for anyone looking to upgrade their snow removal game. Its cordless convenience, impressive power, and thoughtful design make it a standout option in the market. While it does have a few minor drawbacks, they are far outweighed by the benefits. If you’re willing to invest a bit more upfront and possibly in a couple of spare batteries, this snow blower will make your winter chores significantly easier and more efficient. I highly recommend it for anyone who values performance and convenience in their outdoor tools.

Used it during a recent snowstorm and I am very impressed. My wife even used it when I was out of town, and she had no problems snow blowing a very long asphalt driveway. Used it for about 40 minutes on two batteries and it didn’t stop! Even walked it over to my neighbor’s house and did his driveway on one charge. Would highly recommend.

Last week we had our first decent snowfall of ~7-8" in suburban Minneapolis which allowed me to try out the snowblower I bought to replace our 25 year old 2 stroke snowblower that decided not to start this winter. I bought an E-Go lawn mower last summer that came with a 10Ah battery, so I bought the snowblower without a battery, hoping the single battery would work okay. I was a little nervous this might not work out as I wasn't seeing any reviews running the snowblower on just one battery. I am pleased to report that the battery held up, running the blower at full speed to clear three ~20'x40' driveways. E-Go says the blower can throw snow 40'. That may be true - certainly it threw the snow an impressive distance, but what I found was, at full speed, the unit blew snow in every direction. I and the snowblower were completely encased in snow very quickly (see attached pictures). This might not have happened if I slowed down the speed, but my primary goal was to test out the battery. A fair amount of snow fell into the battery compartment when I took the battery out. The snow was pretty stuck on the snowblower and did not melt off in the garage for the next several days because it is not warm like a gas-powered unit. Overall, I thought the snowblower worked pretty well. It is sweet that there is no yanking on a cord to get it to start or blue smoke filling the garage. I liked the easy swivel of the chute compared to the crank on our old Toro. However, it is more difficult to push than our old blower, particularly over driveway transitions. I think that is because it has metal blades compared to the rubber thing on the old unit. The 10Ah batteries are super expensive, so I don't think I will ever recover the cost compared to gas. Also, the E-Go unit case is all plastic - I don't think I'll get 25 years out of this snowblower. Time will tell.

My only complaint is I've only gotten to use it once. Battery length, throwing power and quiet. All good. But it may never snow again in Chicago?

Works well but seems very heavy compared to similar gas snowblower. Difficult to push with 5-6” of powder.
