Wanted your Opinions on The Ariens 11528LE Snow Blower
Original Message Jan 18, 2005 5:09 pm

Folks,

You, who have the Ariens 11528LE, how would you rate them?

As good or better than Toro or Simplicity. Please give me your thoughts.

After all the good comments on the 1128LE and Chris's statement that the 1332LE at HD for $1316.oo was a steal, he bought a blower.

We went to HD early this AM (0700) and he bought the 1332LE for$1316.00. Which he thought was a super steal!!

It is more than he needs, but overkill is always better.

Thanks for all you help.

I bought the 1128 Pro new last year and have had lots of problems. Worse for me was the lack of support from Ariens. I'm planning to get a Honda next year.

I've never had a problems with support from Ariens. It was always great. What was/is the problems you are having with it? Talk with a tech from Ariens and ask for email so that you can follow up with them. I send pictures through email, and they also called me to resolve things. I had a bent auger housing on my 1128 LE. They would fix it, but I wanted to upgrade to professional model.

You made the correct choice for choosing Honda. I do remember now what probelms you had with your snowthrower, and am very sad to hear about them. Let us know what model Honda you decide to get, and how you are enjoying it.
