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

I bought a used MTD last year and with my luck...the motor blew up.  Looking at costs of a new motor, I am better off going to a new unit altogether.

I have been hearing very good things about Ariens.  The local dealer recommded the 924 DLE Deluxe and said it is better than most other models in its class that are on the market except for TORO which is the leader of the pack.  Here in Ontario, winter can be fun...ie...lots and lots of snow.

Is this a good machine?  While it last?  He told me all of the housing was metal which will stand up to the elements.

Your opinions and recommendations are valued.  Looking forward to your replies.

If i was you I would buy a toro because the last for the longest time and eat the snow as ice for hevaey snow i know it sounds wierd but i would consider a single stage because it licks the ground and has faster moving flaps w/e you call theme i noticed that are fist storm in chicago when i got my 200e which is 18 years old and my new double stage my 200e kicked ass!!
