Only used it once so far, worked well. Supposed to get 3-5" tomorrow, so will hopefully get to use it again. First time was about 6", cleaned the drive to the concrete and chute adjustment was easy. It didn't like raised segments of the surface at cracks, like running into a wall. Be nice to have some glide shoes on the front. The 40' throw didn't happen. Maybe 20-25'. Easy to push, don't have the auger or self propelled. Only used it once so limited experience with it.
Interesting post and discussions. My Ryobi trimmer operated with battery or cord. For some reason the cord side died but still works with the battery. Now all Ryobi yard tools use a battery. Any old timers out there remember the electric lawnmowers that used a cord? Get to the end of the cut, reverse the handle and go back.
