Decent blowing power and light on my back. battery life is shorter than I expected and I have ordered a 5ah battery to hopefully extend running time. I do recommend this blower.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful but flimsy

Bought this and used it for a couple of snows in the Midwest. On the positive side, does a really good job collecting and blowing the snow. Pretty easy to assemble as well. A major problem I’m facing is that the snow deflector(attached to the snow chute), is very loose and cannot stand the pressure from the ejected snow, constantly dropping to the lowest position. End result is a lot of the snow showers back on me. There must be a way to fix this. would hate to return it for something that could’ve been fixed by a screw if designed properly.
Pros: Convenient, Environmentally Safe, Powerful
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Easy to use, especially with multiple batteries

I bought this product over a bidding website, but it did not come with a battery or charger. The charger is name brand, but I found an off-brand 6.0Ah battery for a little cheaper. I'm sure the same will extend to the Greenworks battery, but the batteries charge incredibly fast. You can have a completely uncharged battery, and have a fully charged battery after you finish a cup of your morning coffee.
Our driveway is roughly 120' here in Ohio, with the end backing up to a busier road. This snow blower has been able to easily cut through 6'+ inches of snow, and launches it far enough so that I don't have to duplicate any effort. This device is easy to start, easy to transport, and easy to move.
I have only found three cons so far: Firstly, with it being so light, there are times where I would skim over the top of some snow or meet a lot of resistance. Secondly, even with a 6.0 Ah battery, I am completely out of juice after about 20-30 minutes of snow blowing (thankfully I don't need more time than that to get the driveway functional). Lastly, wet snow, like all snow blowers, is a challenge.
The pros far outweigh the cons with this machine.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

Hello TS92,
Thank you for your inquiry with us. We appreciate it when customers leave feedback with us regarding their tools. We are happy to hear that you are loving your snow blower and thank you for choosing Greenworks! A good thing to note is that our Greenworks batteries work best in these units and the run time can be much longer that some of our competitors
You may like to know about out dual stage snow throwers that came out this winter season. They are ideal for clearing snow from sidewalks, driveways, and patios. This Greenworks Pro 80V snow thrower is the tool to have when the snow hits. This two-stage snow thrower is powered by an 80-volt max lithium-ion battery that provides easy and convenient cordless operation. With the 200° rotating chute, you can throw snow up to 50ft. in your desired direction. For snow removal in the evening, this blower features front LED lights to increase visibility. The self-propelled option and 15" rear wheels make it easy to maneuver even in the toughest snow conditions, plus the zero-turn system allows you to turn precisely and effortlessly.

This snowblower is amazing
on January 10, 2023
Posted by: cdavidson

I live in Northern Colorado and finally needed to move from shoveling to looking at purchasing a snowblower. Our snowbanks were getting too high for me to throw snow any higher with a shovel (not a complaint - just a statement of fact. Bring on the snow!), so I surrendered and purchased a snowblower. I love how lightweight this blower is - even my tiny 74 year old mom can easily move through the snow with this machine. This winter (22-23) as seen one of the the widest range of snow density that I have seen in my 30+ years of living here. The lightest snow to super dense snow. It doesn't matter if it is two inches of super dense snow, ten inches of light snow, this snowblower moves through it. And it is so quiet that I don't feel like a terrible neighbor if I do one last snow blow before bed, just to help out with the bigger storms we've been seeing this winter. Our driveway fits five cars and the battery last for the whole drive and allows me to snowblow outside the driveway to help me from me buried by the plow when they come through. I haven't had any issues with the chute clogging, and have been incredibly happy with the performance of this snowblower. The only thing I don't take it through are the massive chunks of snow that can get piled at the end of the driveway, but I think it would be fine going through it.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

Disappointing
on January 6, 2023
Posted by: Marc11378
from Detroit, MI
Gender:Male
I really tried to make this work, but it just wasn't the right blower for my driveway. I have other greenworks tools that I really like and already had to 80v batteries so that's why I chose it. My main issue was the fact that in mostly light, fluffy snow (4 inches) it would not blow it far enough to even clear the most narrow portion of my driveway causing me to go back over areas multiple times. I was going down the middle of the driveway that is about 10ft wide and it could not make the 5ft to blow it onto the grass, which is obviously well short of the 25ft that is advertised.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe

Hello Marc11378,
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to read that you are not completely satisfied with this Snow Blower. Depending on the type of snow, the discharge range will vary. This snow thrower can discharge up to 20' but this would be with light and fluffy snow. If the snow is wet, heavy, packed, or icy the discharge range will reduce significantly. When using any snow thrower on wet snow, there is a chance of clogging. Often, the reason for this is that the speed of the impeller causes wet snow/slush to freeze.
For best use in heavy snow types, you will want to move less at once and move a little quicker. Once a full pass has been completed, only move about a third of the width of the unit with each pass going forward. This will help with the load acting against the unit and should hopefully assist in a more enjoyable user experience. Believe it or not, your chute can clog from simply not moving fast enough. As you move faster, the impeller pushes snow out with more force, hopefully throwing in further. It also helps to keep a tool nearby that can be used to poke the ice/snow down when it gets clogged. Never put a tool in while the unit is running and make sure the impeller has completely stopped moving first.
If you find that you are still experiencing an issue, please kindly give us a call at 1-888-909-6757 for further troubleshooting.

Poor plastic parts

Used first time today. While bringing back into garage and pulling handle over the threshold, small plastic piece molded into unit housing snapped off causing handle to not stay in position. I will say the company agreed to replace but I can see this happening again. If it does, I hope I can get a full refund.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet

Very Disappointed

I bought this right before a big new years storm in Utah. Battery at full charge lasted 25 mins at best. Not much power or performance. I ended up shoveling my driveway while the battery had to be put back on charger only 1/4 into my driveway. Terrible experience , not cheap either. Necer will buy the brand again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Snowman. We are sorry to hear about your poor experience. Battery run times will depends on a multitude of things including which battery you are using(2.0ah, 3.0ah, 4,0ah, 5.0ah etc), the weight of the snow, how much snow, etc. The size of ones driveway as well may require the battery to be charged more than other smaller driveways/areas. We are sorry once again that you are not satisfied with your purchase and thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback to us.
