I have one of these and it works very well for the price. The cord is a PITA to deal with though so upgraing to a battery powered one is a great idea. This works though if you are on a tight budget.

I added short screws to the shute because it flys off a lot but otherwise it works great for the price.

With less snowfall these days something like this is great for most areas. This still feels like a good compromise between value, ease, and efficiency. Id buy again at this price if mine died.

This happens to me. Where did you add screws? Did it impact the turning of the chimney

Had one of these and it broke, which at this price point is fine, but it's basically a throw away item.

I got one of these last year, it has worked okay a couple of times. Needed a long extension cord that cost like $50. You need a specific gauge that is more expensive or you it won't supply enough power and will likely be damaged. I wonder how many people that have it die quickly were using a cheap power cord.

But be sure to factor in an expensive 50/75 ft extension cord or whatever you will need to reach where you need to.

Looks like an all-plastic auger - would recommend avoiding plastic augers, especially if you're using it anywhere near gravel..

I'd gotten a Snow Joe back in 2017 for ~$80 - it lasted a surprisingly long time (6+ yrs) and did reasonably well... but it had a metal auger with rubber 'paddles'.

I opted for the 27E. Didn't really research it much, but it seems like it's a newer, bigger model and the price difference was minimal. I really want an Ego, but this is a horrible time to buy them. Maybe I'll try again in the spring or summer

On the side of the chute, the black part. One did but I just pulled it half way out. I don't really care how it looks, it works.

I just used the first screws I found but some short screws would be best. Any will work, it's just plastic. Make a new hole if the first doesn't work.

Just got mine today from this deal and it appears to be brand new with just a dented box. The blower itself was in perfect condition. The parts bag was missing a small bolt but I have my own extras. I struggled to jam it through packed snow but I think it will be just fine for fresh fluffy stuff.

Has anyone tried using this kind of corded electric snow thrower in combination with a portable battery like a 1kw or 2kw unit from Ecoflow, Jackery, Pecron, etc? I can easily do my driveway with an electric cord but getting the sidewalk done is a real pain with a cord. Otherwise I would have to spend $1k for a unit from Ego. I've had a gas-powered unit in the past (years ago) but prefer the simplicity of electric.

lol, I bought one of those "snow throwers" just to ease shoveling snow from Snow Joe. Lasted one winter and now this current winter (2025) it broke after the first push in fluffy snow. I called for warranty and here is what they said.

rep "which wire gauge are you using?"
me "12 gauge"
rep "upon checking, you must use 16gauge for up to 50 foot and 14 gauge for up to 100"
me "so i can use lower gauge as they exceed the requirements"
rep "according to the user manual, you must use 16 gauge for up to 50 feet and 14 for 100"
me "so if a lower gauge is higher rated to handle more amps, isn't it fine to use the 12 gauge as that will exceed the requirement?"

the rep would not answer the question. Then proceeds to ask a bunch of other questions which led to "do you have the receipt" which I replied no, it was store bought and I didn't think I would need to keep the receipt because I was under the assumption it should last at least the 2 years and therefore, I wouldn't be able to get warranty anyways. Sucks for me, everyone save your receipts

Fwiw, most stores can pull your receipt if you have the CC paid with.
