Snowblower Reviews

  • Seems excellent
    By Ralph Frost(Owner), Jan. 30, 2011
    Good price. Great features. Was top rated as the Troy Bilt version of the exact same machine just sold under the craftsman label. It is large but you buy 30" that's what you get. It has no brake so be careful not to take it out of gear without considering this on a steep hill. My drive is paved and flat so I have no problems. Handles heavy snow well. Just purchased this year (2011) so far so good.

    I've had this snow blower for 4 years. I never used it the first year, barely used it the second year. I used it about 5 times the third year and used it once this year. The biggest snow storm in this area today, 3/5/15 and the thing doesn't start. Now, it's leaking gasoline every and finally stopped when the gas tank was empty. This thing is the biggest disappointment. Don't buy Sears, it's garbage.
