Hello hermit on by a creek,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are concerned to read that you are feeling let down by this snow blower's auger. Most Greenworks impellers are plastic; the material is polyethylene plastic, which is light and quite durable. With the exception on Greenworks 80V 22” –22” has metal/rubber assembly, dual stage has full metal. If you wish to discuss products with our team directly, do not hesitate to reach out at info@greenworkstools.com or through our helpline at 1-888-909-6757.
I leave in southeast PA where we get a lot of wet snow - if any. I bought this last year in the fall to prepare for winter. My driveway is about 100' long and 10' wide and I thought this could handle it. First snow was 5" and this blower failed the test miserably. The 4ah battery drained in about 5 min of use and about 30 linear feet. Pushing this thing through the snow was like plowing a farm field by hand - it was a lot of work. Charging the battery takes about 40 min once you include the 15 min cool-down time they don't tell you about. Needless to say it was not going to work so I gave up and hired a plow guy for the rest of the winter. Cost me less than buying an extra battery (or the 6 I would need). I would also include that I have many Greenworks products - 40 volt line and power tools. This one is just terrible.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Mily,
Only common issue we hear of for initial startups are as follows: Press and hold in on the switch round safety lock out button, while continuing to push it in pull back on the bale. Hoping this was maybe a misstep and will be able to correct with these instructions. If the issue does not resolve, please contact us at 1-888-909-6757 or submit an email to info@greenworkstools.com. We are here to help.
I bought this a month ago and love it. I no longer have to deal with gasoline which is dangerous and can get old. My old gas powered machine broke and I bought this new one. I like the amount of time that is available on the big battery.

I’ve had my leaf blower 1 week now. I am enjoying using it. It has plenty of power. I would like to get a second battery but don’t know which battery will fit it. Don’t know where to find the battery number.
Love that this snowblower came with two batteries, this is our backup snow blower and to be used on our deck. Being in MN we do get the snow, and already had to use it, and it worked great. So impress with it, that we plan to buy a lawn mower this spring.
