I have found the Snow Thrower Model SJ627E to be an excellent value for its price, and it performs just as it is intended to. It has been effective in snow up to 7.5,” performing much better than I had expected. If you live in a place with relatively moderate winters, as I do, I think you’ll find this product quite useful. Of course it has its limitations, but what piece of equipment doesn’t?

I bought this snowblower last year and.used it for the first time during a very heavy snowfall this week. It worked extremely well but works best in two to three inches of snow. We got a total of thirteen inches of snow so we went out three times during the snowfall to clear the driveway and sidewalk. The only complaint I have is that the large plastic wing nuts that hold the folding handles together kept loosening up so I added washers and a lock washer to each bolt.
The unit seems to be made of cheap materials. There is a design flaw, that when the chute is at a 45 degree, it shoots a stream of snow backwards where there is a gap. If the chute is pointing is pointing forward, it shoots it back to the operator. Snow Joe can you please look into this and have a retro fit kit available. Other than the 2 issues I found, the unit works great and gets the job.
