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

I am looking at buying my first snowblower and would like to get your comments on which of these two machines I should buy, it is a toss up. I like the steering capabilities and the joystick of the Toro, but I also like the size and power of the Ariens. Is the Ariens 1130dle easy to turn at the end of the drive way, and also how reliable is the l-head engine. Thnaks

I just want to thank all of you who helped me with my choice, I purchased a Toro 1128oxe today, and it should arrive tomorrow. I really liked the Ariens also but they didn't have much of a selection of the pro series at the local dealer. The main reason for opting out for the Toro was I got it for a good price and it comes with the Tecumseh ohv engine on it. I also like the chute controls. So thanks.
