Snowblower Reviews

While snowblowers may not sound like landscaping tools down south, they’re an integral part of northern property maintenance. Our snowblower reviews tell the story. We test for power and blowing speed and distance. We look at ergonomics and how well the system works as a whole. Snowblower Reviews for Pros In the north it’s difficult to separate the Pros from the homeowners who like to “get ‘er done”, but the difference may not matter. Running a snowblower is no fun if it can’t get the work accomplished. We’ve looked at gas models like the Ariens Rapidtrak Snowblower Series as well as new battery-powered products like the EGO 56V snowblower. While battery may not seem like a reliable technology for snowblowers, manufacturers seem to think they can pull it off. So far, we’ve been rather impressed with the early results of the push for battery-powered snowblowers. It may not be long until more Pro-focused models will hit the streets and offer longer run-times and more power.
