$500 to spend on toro 418 or Craftsman 205 cc single stage snowblower

I'm looking to add a single stage snowblower. I currently have a toro 826 OXE two stage. I didn't want to spend too much so my budget is about $500 or so. Anyhow, I can get the toro 418 for $449 Canadian (electric start) or Sears Canada is having a sale on their Craftsman single stage 205 cc Briggs built single stage. It's the same one that Briggs offers under different brands including simplicity. This one is a display model and it comes with the remote chute control too. I like the toro but I'm not sure if the small 87 cc engine and narrow 18" width would be of any use. The Craftsman comes with a 22" width.
