This is the second time I have used this and could not be more pleased. We are currently under blizzard conditions in Iowa and granted I have been going out every hour to shovel to stay ahead of the snow but this thing just plows through the snow. I am 61 and have a bad back and this has been a life saver!!!!! Well worth every penny and more.
I ordered 2, one for my son, for Christmas, and one for myself, since the price was so reasonable. I gave my son his shovel early because we were expecting 6"+ of snow before Christmas, and we got it. I used mine to work my way from the front door to my "real" snow thrower, and I was AMAZED at the power and throwing distance of this cordless shovel - no exaggeration! My son lives 18 miles north of us and got 2" - 3" more snow than us and HE was amazed as well. I'm do not normally leave reviews, but this product is SO MUCH BETTER THAN I EXPECTED, I had to share. If I didn't have a brand new Cub Cadet snow thrower I'd order the big Snow Joe thrower, I have absolute confidence in their products - worth every penny.
I guess it technically works as described. I'll probably never use it though because it's only somewhat effective on 3-4" of light, unpacked snow and only on very smooth surfaces. The 10" width means a lot of passes, but that wasn't unexpected. Just annoying in actual use.
I'm 82 years old and am tired of shoveling the walkway, etc. so I switched as many tools as I can to battery operated. I used the SnoJoe for the first time last week and was surprised at how well it worked. Cleaning my stairs and walkway was a breeze.
Extremely poor design. Really needs 4 wheels to keep auger blades above deck surface. The current shovel bottom is impossible to push thru more than one inch of snow. It's easier to push a manual shovel!!!! I will be returning this item.
Just received this unit about a week ago. Have not been able to use it as yet. Still September here in N.E. Ohio. I have purchased and used 4 other Sun-Joe products. I will say this, they are very well engineered, and built to give years of service! Extremely happy with my purchases!
