Pros:

This unit has a specific use – to replace your snow shovel.  It’s faster than shoveling, easier, and requires a lot less work.

If you have a weight restriction, (you can only lift 20 lbs) and can still go outside in the cold, this is will allow you to shovel your own snow.

Cons:

You need to drag a cord around as you use it.  I recommend no more than 100′ of 14 gauge extension cord.

In reality, it only throws snow a few feet.  It will clear your steps and sidewalks well, but don’t expect it to throw the snow over anything higher than three feet.

Summary:

A few years ago I owned a house that had a small front porch, a couple of front steps and about 50 feet of sidewalk in the Chicago area.  I owned an older version of this power shovel and it did a good job of clearing 4 inches or less of snow.  A lot of the snow we got was heavy and wet and the power shovel was much faster and easier than using a regular snow shovel.

If you feel the Toro Power Shovel is right for you one of the best places to purchase one is through eBay.  There are usually dozens of new ones for sale for less than $100.  I noticed a lot of the dealers that sell on eBay offer free shipping on the Power Shovel.

I’ve made it simple for you to purchase a Power Shovel. Go to the top of this page and click on the “Used Snowthrowers” Tab.  On the right side of the next page click on “Toro Snowblowers”.  If you don’t find a Power Shovel listed right there click on the “view more items on eBay” link at the bottom of the page.
