This is very basic. Only has a left right adjustment for the shoot. To adjust height or distance there is a wing nut screw you have to loosen.
$285 shipping so it's pretty much pick up only. Good find OP, I've been looking for this but no Menards around here.
You can never follow that MSRP crap. Who the heck knows where they even pull those numbers from. The biggest abusers, save for the current situation we are in, were always the auto manufacturers. Listing cars at $35,000 MSRP, meanwhile the price you actually pay on the lot could be $5,000 less assuming you aren't gullible and actually negotiate the price down.

I would never pay attention to the MSRP. This seems like a legitimate price for a snow-blower of this caliber. 20 years ago, my father paid $600 for a 6.5 HP snow-blower from Northern Tool. I used that thing up until last year when I finally went for something bigger due to the crappy winters we can sometimes get on Long Island. We get a lot of wet snow here, so I needed something, with a more powerful engine, that could throw it.

Shady Menard's rebate. Their rebates still DO NOT lower the price to what they quote, since it is NOT a cash-back rebate, unlike every other rebate everywhere else. Store credit would be a more accurate description. Their advertising practices have come under scrutiny in multiple states for being misleading, even with the fine print. I still shop there sometimes, but I hate their insulting sales tactics.

Good luck getting this every day. It's November and these just came back in stock and this model is $350 less (without rebate) than anywhere else.

Saw three on the shelf. Didn't bother. Good for a few seasons but in the end you get what you pay for with this. And I HATE how Menards frames their "deals" with the "11% off" bullshit. The day this retailer goes public and the financials available, this 11% scheme is instantly over.

I had that same problem with the wet spring snow we get here in the Rockies. There is a spray on non-stick coating that takes care of the problem. It's called DuPont Teflon Snow and Ice Repellant.
Thanks, I'll give it a shot this winter.
