How We Rated Our Electric Snow Blowers

There are so many types and models of snow blowers available in the current market, that it is quite difficult to take the right decision. It could be a back-breaking task to choose the right model for your needs. As you probably know, although they could have similar basic features, no all models are built the same. Some devices are equipped with a more powerful motor than other or they have more features than others. Some models come with adjustable handles while others are equipped with a LED light. However, in order to help you find a model that meets your expectations keep on reading the following lines.

• Power cord

  Since they use a direct line to a power outlet, the blowers with power cords are capable of delivering more amperage than any other model. They can easily perform with an extension cord, but they could be limited by its length. Also, it is important to understand that the line of the auger has to be clear in order to avoid getting it tangled.

• Adjustable handles

  One of the most important features that a snow blower can have is the adjustable handle. If you are looking to purchase a comfortable blower that allows you to adjust it in order to fit your height then opt for a model with an adjustable handle. These models are much easier to use and operate, making you feel extremely comfortable while using it.

• Headlight

  The truth is that there are no many models with a headlight option. That’s why, if you see something like this, feel lucky you found it. The snow blowers with LED light is very useful at night or on those dark winter mornings when you have to remove snow from your walkways. More than that, this feature can be considered a nice, safety measure.

• Throw Distance

  One of the most important aspects of a snow blower is its throwing capacity. You need to pay attention to this factor as it is an overlock feature and top deciding criteria. Most snow shovels are equipped with fixed augers in one direction which can easily throw snow up to 20-30 feet. These models are made for people that have to remove a lot of snow.

• Plowing capacity

  Another important factor to consider when making a purchase is the plowing capacity. Most models are able to remove up to 300-600 pounds of snow per minute. In our comparison table, you will find a powerful blower, the Greenworks 16-Inch which can clear up to 600 lbs. of snow per minute, followed by the Earthwise SN70016 that can clear up to 430 lbs. of snow per minute. The other three models can remove up to 300 pounds per minute. However, they are powerful and get the job done in no time.
