  • Snow Blowers

    I am DONE with shoveling snow. DH is NEVER home when it is time to shovel. I'm going to buy a snow blower. Any recommendations? I need it to be light enough and easy enough for me to use. We have a double driveway (could fit 4 SUVs or 6 medium sized cars on it), and a sidewalk that is too fricking long for me to ever want to shovel again. Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I also need to be able to store it in the garage. Right now the garage is full of crap and my mustang. I can move the crap but the mustang stays ('65).

          They're pricey, but get a dual stage with the thrower.

          I'm not saying that one necessarily but one like it. If we live in a snow state again that is what we'll get.

            Thanks, I noticed alot of them say dual stage, and I have no idea what that means. I may live in NJ, but I grew up in Mississippi!!!!!!!!!!

              Dual stage blowers have blades to pick up the snow and a separate set to throw the snow. We have a single stage Honda that was about $800. It's easy enough for me to use - my parents blower would drag me down the driveway! I'll get the model number when I get out of bed

                  I'm also in the market - and we have severe space issues - we were thinking of just throwing a tarp on it and leaving it outside - do you think this is OK?
                  I'm also looking at 2-stage, and a 4-stroke engine rather than the 2-stroke, to minimize the pollution.
