My Opinion:

The 1332PE has a metal discharge chute and a 4 quart fuel tank, otherwise there is nothing special about this machine.  In my opinion the Craftsman professional snow blower is a better machine.  The Craftsman is bigger all around, heavier, wider, more power and a better value. This Deere snow blower does have a cast iron auger gearcase and electric chute control.  This Deere snowblower does have a good reputation from the owners, but is it worth an additional $500 over the Craftsman Professional 357 cc 33 inch 2 Stage Snow Thrower Model 88835?

What is really interesting to me is the Craftsman has a 90 day no questions, return policy…….the John Deere is not eligible for the 30 day John Deere Promise (30 day money back guarantee)

Craftsman has in-home service available for their product. It is unclear from the literature if John Deere will repair your snow blower at your home.

My Opinion:

The 1130E has a metal discharge chute and a 4 quart fuel tank, otherwise there is nothing special about this machine.   From what information I can get from my local John Deere dealer this machine’s “easy steer” is nothing more than a differential instead of power steering.  In my opinion the power steering on Craftsman snow blower is much easier to use on this large of a machine.   This size Deere snowblower has a good reputation from the owners,  but is it worth an additional $550 over the Craftsman Professional 357 cc 30 inch 2 Stage Snow Thrower Model 88830.

My Opinion:

The 928E has a metal discharge chute and a 3 quart fuel tank, otherwise there is nothing special about this machine. This size Deere snowblower does not  have a good reputation from the owners, particularly because most confuse the “Wheel Lock”  with a differential (It’s nothing more than a wheel release so you can turn the machine).  It is definitely not worth paying an additional $400 over the Craftsman Model 88791.

What is really interesting to me is the Craftsman has a 90 day no questions, return policy…….the John Deere is not eligible for the 30 day John Deere Promise (30 day money back guarantee)
