Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

I have had the opportunity to use my new Ariens on two occasions within a short period of my purchase. This is a great machine! I am able to clear my double drive and long sidewalk in no time. Previously, I used a Polaris ATV to plow the snow. Boy what a difference. The ATV truly was not designed to push a lot of snow, not to mention you have to find a place to stack it once you get it out of your drive. The Ariens allows me to clear the drive and sidewalk in 1/4 the time. I leave one auto in the street, While I plow the drive and area around my second car. I can plow immediately adjacent to my second car and shoot the snow well ove the cars roof and into the yard with ease. Also, I am able to plow a nice area of my grass yard for my dogs without damaging the grass. This is a well built and fantastic operating machine. This is a machine that will provide me many years of use. I have no problem staring the unit in low temps with either the pull starter or electric. This was a great purchase. I no longer dread a snowfall. Thanks Ariens.
