Review: Great for tiny jobs like a walkway.
Review: Bought this in early Dec 2024 as part of the "get ready for the winter" plan. December passed without much snow but then mid to late January 2025, we got a taste of winter. This little snow shovel did a fantastic job cleaning a double driveway, although I have to admit, it wasn't a thick, heavy snow. The real test was this past days just before Valentine Day when reportedly we got 20-25cm of snow !!! Now, I admit that the amount of snow is way more that this snow shower can handle so it took apoximately 1 hour to finish cleaning 20cm of snow (about 8 inches) from half the driveway. In conclusion, for the money, it doesn't hurt to have this snow shovel. Small, light and it can be easily stored in the garage. I chose to buy corded after seeing the cordless version some of my neighbours have which barely lasts 15 minutes. It is capable of throwing the snow up to 3-4 meters and it has an adjusting knob which helps somewhat redirect which way the snow can be thrown. Another good thing - this is the only one I found where you can buy spare parts, if needed. All in all, for under $200 this is a really nice tool. If you don't mind having a cord attached, give it a try.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: For the electric corded 16" snow blower shovel, do you need any type of clean out tool device, for the front area chute? only answer if you know.**
A: Review,
Thank you for your question. There is no designed device. However, when you do clear out any build up, please make sure the item is unplugged.

**Q: Can you change the direction of the snow being thrown? If so, by how much? Can it take a hard left /right turn for throwing like a snowblower would?**
A: LGQ,
Thank you for your question. The baffles can be moved to the right or the left, but they can not be adjusted to a 90 degree angle like larger snow throwers with a chute.
Earthwise/American Lawn Mower Company

**Q: How many belts on this snow blower**
A: There are two belts , one small toothed belt from electric motor to a jack shaft, and a ribbed longer but thinner belt from jack shaft to a plastic pully that is lobe connected to the external blade that spins and throws the snow. Small toothed belt is the most likley to fail if you over do it. the belt number is: HTD 126-3M-18

**Q: Can I leave it outside unprotected during the winter?**
A: Since this unit has an electrical motor, I would not recommend exposing motor to the elements for long periods. The unit takes up less room than a hoover vacuum and I keep mine stowed in the back corner of my unheated garage year round. Note, any snow removal devices should be at ambient outside temperatures prior to use or snow will freeze to the surfaces. If covered unheated storage is not an option, I would cover loosely with a modified plastic tote to protect motor from dirt & moisture, while allowing unit to dry after use. Anything mechanical if left outside unprotected winter or summer will corrode, deteriorate & become unserviceable. KEEP DRY as much as possible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***J on 13 February 2024*

So I'm from Jersey and if you're looking at the date of this review, we just had around 8 inches land in my area. What better time to test this bad boy out? Granted, I ordered it about a month ago and assembled it. We just haven't had any snow since. I'll say, shipping/box presentation was rough. The product came with a corner smashed in pretty bad, but I hoped everything inside was packed well enough and everything seemed to be in place properly. Instructions to put it together are OKAY. The one thing and maybe my fault, is that I rushed ahead on using 4 screws to put the bottom base together where you join two green plastic covers together. You don't want to do that step until you're ready to screw in the base of the wheels to the unit. The screws will join the wheel assembly to the base of the unit, linking the two green covers together. Just a piece of advise for you there. Aside from that little detail, I think the rest of the assembly was quite straight forward and easy enough. So now, onto performance and ease of use. Some people may complain because it's corded, but I knew that going in. I have 100ft extension cord. As long as you have it loose behind you so you can walk without it pulling you back because you ran out of cord, you'll be fine. I wrap the cord over my shoulder to prevent it from dropping down anywhere near the machine. To engage the machine you have a safety switch you press in and then the trigger held down to activate. Fires up immediately and I just went right at it. The wheels definitely give it nice stability at the bottom so that you can push it with 1 hand rather than having to use two hands to hold it. Though you can, and there is a handle midway up the shaft to give you that extra leverage. I did use that when the snow got tougher to push through. Frequently you're going to hit a snag where it appears to not want to spit, but you simply need to raise or lower it until it bites the snow. It's a lot easier than saying it and all happens in seconds while using it. Put it simply, it won't just do everything for you on its own and will require you to get in with it to make sure it's constantly biting the snow and spitting it forward, but it does it very well and for the most part effortlessly. Another key note worth mentioning is that you can adjust the angle to spit the snow. Not all of these tools have that. It works really well because I required to make it spit left towards my yard and avoid shooting straight onto the street or the neighbors yard on my right. This helps tremendously to guide the snow towards where you want to pile it up. Now for the CONS or things to keep in mind. First obviously, this is my first usage of the machine and cannot give you reliability results yet. I will come back to update this review however if it does go bad on me and any leading factors for that. Keep in mind, you want a relatively flat surface when using this. I mean it can be a driveway that inclines/declines, just make sure that there are no rocks/stones/broken portions that can result in the auger whacking into. Either you're going to be spitting rocks/stones, or you're going to break the plastic auger. Granted it's hard plastic, so it won't go down without a fight. I just wouldn't test it. I bought the 16 inch wide housing over the 12 to get a little more width which would equal completing the job sooner. I HIGHLY recommend that. I know it doesn't seem like much, but those extra inches do help in the grand scheme. More being chomped and spit at a time means less overall passes needed to clear your driveway/walkway. Lastly, you can tackle a wall that the snow plow makes in front of your driveway with it. Because it can be lifted up with a little more effort, you can just basically put it on top of the wall and start grinding your way down. I did this and it worked great. You just need to get yourself an entry point angle to then get it on comfortably and push it along the top until you shave the wall down. So yeah, for now, without a doubt, if you don't mind a corded blower, I highly recommend this. My driveway is the exact length of average sized car left to right and two more right behind them. If you can picture those measurements covered with 8 inches of snow (cars were not in driveway so it was completely covered), it took me 35 minutes to complete the job including the snow wall.
