Easy to handle. Easy to store. Love easy start button. No pull cord. No smelly gas to buy. Not sure about longevity. It is light (maybe too light). All plastic. Can handle small to medium jobs. If heavy or big snowfall, will need to go out 2-3 times due to low height of rotating blades (plastic). Would recommend overall.
I have only used it three times, but love it. I wanted the 22” for its dual battery ports since I do my neighbors’ drives too. One battery (60V 4.0HC) get me through 2.5 driveways and sidewalks. About 25min of runtime maybe. I am in a standard two car driveway suburban neighborhood.
This snow blower is a beast!! It worked as well as my neighbors' big gas snow blowers but was lighter and did not smell!! It moves effortlessly through ice or deep snow and worked flawlessly in the crazy, snowy Feb 2021. The interchangeable batteries will all of my other awesome 60V Greenworks equipment is icing on the cake!
Tired of waiting for guys to shovel out driveway and sidewalk. Went together with son-in-law a couple of blocks away to buy Snow Blower. Already have several Greenworks tools ... and batteries. Three occasions to use Snow Blower. Love it. Easy to handle. Does the job, no trouble. No problem that not self-propelled. Did both driveways and sidewalks and 2nd battery still with charge. Lightweight and easy to get in sedan trunk or SUV to go between houses. Already close to paying for itself. Only regret did not buy sooner!
I bought this in the Fall, was impressed with how quickly it worked through the first few light snows. A heavier/wetter snow in January was too much for it. On my 5th use, the rubber scraper snapped in half on a concrete driveway. No stores stock the part, so it leaves a 1/2" trail of packed snow on whatever surface you are attempting to clear. Finding the part is difficult, and be aware they don't consider it part of the warranty.
