I've only had this for two weeks and we've had three snow storms in that time.
I'm going to throw out my first use, because I had never used a snow blower before and was pretty much trying to throw slush with the machine at its lowest speed so that was not great. The second snow was only about 3" and very light and fluffy, the blower worked well to clear the driveway and sidewalk but did not throw very far because there was not that much to throw (or maybe because I hadn't charged the battery from the first time I used it). The third time I used this was the charm. We got about 5" of snow mixed with freezing rain. On one charge I cleared my large parking pad, most of my shared driveway, which is huge, the sidewalk, and the the street at end of the drive that had been plowed in.
I'm delighted with the ease of turning on this snow blower and not having to deal with the maintenance of a gas blower. Oh, it's also QUIET!!!!! I could hear my phone ring in my coat pocket while using this blower.
NOTE: I am a 4' 11" 55 y/o woman. This machine is not light (88 lbs), but I can manage it pretty easily even dragging it up the steep part of my driveway. I researched snow blowers for women and every model was either a sub-par gas blower or an electric blower that would require a cord of at least 200'. This blower is the best that I could find that works for me.
