Quiet Operation
Customers have a generally positive opinion on the quiet operation of the snow blower, with some mentioning that it's significantly quieter than gas-powered alternatives and allows for use without hearing protection. However, a few customers noted that while the machine is quiet during operation, there is an electrical whir. Overall, customers appreciate the convenience of electric power and the absence of gas fumes.
Battery Life
Customers have mixed opinions on the battery life of the product. While most reported long battery life and quick charging, some encountered issues with battery reliability. The batteries provide ample power for clearing driveways and sidewalks but may not last as long as expected in heavy snow conditions.
Snow Clearing Capacity
Customers have generally positive opinions about the snow clearing capacity of the product, expressing that it handles various types and volumes of snow effectively, from light to heavy and wet, making quick work of snow and ice on driveways and walkways. Some customers mentioned that it exceeded their expectations for a single stage machine. However, a few customers noted that the snow throwing distance is not as far as advertised.
Highlights
Quality
Powerful, easy to clean, easy to move forward and back as needed to hit a troublesome or icy section.
This ego had plenty of power, good throw distance on the snow and handled drifts over 12" easily.
Come with 2 powerful lithium batteries cranks up on 1st start.
After 2 rounds of clearing the driveway and city sidewalks, 25% of charge was remaining.
Price
This package with 4x10a hour is a great deal.
I wanted 2 extra batteries so i clicked on the square next to it with 4 batteries to save money.
We didnt want to hire a snowplow this year as we only were plowed a few times in recent years, and it was way too much money/plow.
The price was higher but after using it a couple of times, it is well worth the money.
Shipping
Called ego customer service and they sent a replacement part right away, which was easy to install.
I was able to clear out my driveway very quickly even though i waited several days.
It arrived quickly and only required the chute to be installed.
I bought this during 2023 thanksgiving weekend, it was delivered as assembled except the tube through which the snow is thrown out.
Competitiveness
I was able to add another 200' of sidewalk (to the mail center) as well as a neighbors similarly sized driveway.
I tried cheaper snow blowers but they just don't do the job.
One storm left about 6 inches of extremely wet snow, i had to use half of the chute but it still did great, better than my othe... Read More
Overall impression was that its snow shifting performance was probably similar to my old gas powered snowblower and the batteri... Read More
