Snowblower, Recommendations

[BHC]

Every year I say I'm going to buy one, but it's time that I jump on bandwagon. 

Who has this machine or should I get the 28" version?

Any other makes/models I should consider?

Hopefully we will have a Winter like last year hardly any snow.

Arians are the Cadillac . I myself like the 28” for most spots .

I have the Ariens Deluxe 28” and have only good things to say about it. Highly recommend that snowblower.

Just a hint of advice. In snow blowers bigger is not always better. get  the size that fits your property.

Great snow blower , cant beat an Ariens.

I got the 28” I’m pretty sure. My driveway is maybe 300’ long with a circle on the end. Well over 500’ of driveway. It’s usually plowed but if my father in law isn’t around I have used it before and it works well.  Like any machine if the snow is wet or deep you have to adapt. Maybe blow it midstorm etc.  but overall it’s a great machine.  Like mentioned before bigger isn’t always better.  I only have this blower because my father gave it to me because it’s too big for his driveway with the wall and cars parked in it.

Everything I read says we are in for a snowy winter. Let’s hope!  The woods began to look depressing after a while. Some fresh snow really is cool looking in the woods

Use gas additive because could be month or two in between usage, Ariens is a good choice. Honda is top choice if you got the money.
