Toro Power shovelReviewed by Frances F. Lea, 2010-03-07
I was disappointed. The only way this seems to work is on a very flat surface when there is only a little fresh snow. I could have just as easily used a shovel with less lifting.
Amazing For Its SizeReviewed by Owlyn, 2010-02-17
Hard to believe this little shovel can move so much snow. When
there is less than 6 or 8 ", you just push through. When the snow
is deep, you make several passes. In deep snow, I found that making
one stripe down to the pavement down one side of the driveway, and
then going back and taking bites of less width worked well. This
way, you don't have to lift the shovel as much. So, for a 12" snow,
it worked like this:
Lift the shovel, take off the first 6" deep x 12" wide for as far
as I could reach. Then take the next 6" x 12". Now it's down to the
pavement. Clear one whole length of the driveway like this. Then,
go back to the top of the driveway, and instead of taking another 6
x 12 bite, take a 6 x 6 or 6 x 4 bite. This allows you to keep
moving down the driveway without having to lift the shovel. The 4
or 6 " wide snow falls into the path of the shovel. It takes more
passes this way, but there is very little lifting of the shovel,
and it goes very quickly. Of course, you are better off going out
during the storm and clearing 4 - 6" deep at a time, but if you
can't the above method worked very well. It also is faster if you
have a helper to work the cord for you as you clear.
As others have mentioned, you really need to consider the wind
direction as you clear the snow, as the shovel only blows the snow
forward.
One note- be sure to get a proper exetnsion cord. Get one that is
rated for cold weather, and is the proper guauge (the instructions
tell you what to get).
It did the job.Reviewed by EasyReader, 2010-02-16
The Toro power shovel arrived just in time for the first of two heavy snows in northern Virginia. Because we live in a townhouse and because we seldom have much snow accumulation (and because we are rather elderly), we wanted a small, lightweight, electric snow thrower for occasional use and easy storage. My husband found this shovel invaluable in clearing 2-3 inches (depth of snow) at a time from our 20-foot front walk. Were he shoveling manually, the same job that took a few minutes would have taken hours and would have put hearts and backs at risk. If the snow is deeper than about 3 inches, you have to take it off in layers -- so it's best, if possible, to keep up as it falls. I highly recommend this product for light or occasional snow removal.
Toro Power Shovel 7.5 AMPReviewed by KG, 2010-02-14
This power shovel does not move snow easily. The first time I used it, the snow was a bit heavy and I was trying to clear a small deck. It was obviously too much for the shovel to handle. The motor started putting out black smoke. I turned it off immediately and I have not used it since. I am waiting for a snow storm that brings in a lighter snow. If you just want to move snow that is light and fluffy, this is the shovel for you. I would not recommend it for a resident of Maine. I would have returned it, but I received it as a gift and did not think it would be appropriate.
Price gougingReviewed by T. Pulliam, 2010-02-12
I was going to order the Toro 38361 Power Shovel 7.5 Amp Electric Snow Thrower through Amazon. The cost was $114.00 so I placed it in my Amazon cart. Before I could actually get it ordered (less than 30 minutes), I received a notice that the seller, Mike's Cool Toys, had increased the price to $139.99. So, I didn't order it that day. When I checked my cart the following day, Mike's Cool Toys had raised the price again - this time to $179.99. Be careful when considering to order something from this seller.
