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

Hello all,
I am just about ready to pull the trigger on the above mentioned Murray snow blower. It looks like a great value and weighs in at almost 400lb, compared to others at about 250lb.

I am wondering why I can't find any feedback on the net about this machine?? Has anyone here purchased this machine??

The published weight you're referring to (probably from Snowblowersdirect) is incorrect. The correct shipping weight is 305lbs, which would put the unit weight in at around 260-270lbs. There are far better choices for $1600. That's in the range of the premium brands.

Thanks guys for the info............

Snowman, I have looked at alot of blowers and concluded that there is only a couple I will consider. That being the Murray Pro, Simplicity 30" or the John Deere 1130SE, which is the same as the Simplicity. The Craftsman and Troy Built are really chincy and are equipped with the Chinese engines.

Let me know what you would reccommend in a 30" or 32".

Thanks -- Rick
