Husky versus Stihl
Needed a new blower vac (well, wanted would be a more accurate description) and was torn between the Husky and the Stihl 86 C-E. Was lucky enough to have a neighbor who also wanted one, so we worked out a deal where I would buy both and then sell him the one I didn't want for the price I paid... -
Good Blower, Mediocre Vacuum
Husqvarna is an established brand, so when my box arrived, I was surprised to see how incomplete and incoherent the assembly instructions were. If my wife hadn't been standing there watching me wrestle with the vacuum bag, I would never have figured out how to attach it to the vacuum pipe (Hint:...

The battery-powered Ariens Amp Sno-Thro didn't blow us over
Mediocre removal speed could mean you won’t finish your driveway before the battery runs down. With the included charger, the Amp is ready again in 6 to 7 hours. But even the optional quick charger is cold comfort: It’s $420 and still takes 2 to 3 hours. You’ll also need to store the Amp near an AC outlet, constantly plugged into the charger when the machine is not in use. This precludes storage in the typical shed.
Buy the Best Snow Blower for Your Money
Tip #1 -- Big isn't always better
If you have a small driveway or you live in an area that gets moderate amounts of snow, consider buying a smaller snow blower. Small blowers are usually easier to handle and can do the job. Choose larger models with power-driven wheels if you have a hilly driveway or live where you get heavy snowfall.
Tip #2 -- Don't pay for features you don't needSnow blowers are like anything else, you can buy plain, stripped down models or pay extra for flashy features. There's nothing wrong with features as long as you really need them. Features that are important are clearing tools, electric starting, and different speeds.
All snow blowers need clearing tools. Usually a plastic stick, use this tool to safely clear clogs. Every year, there are over 3,000 finger injuries due to snow blowers. Make sure your new blower has a clearing tool.
Electric starters aren't necessary, but are very nice to have if you choose to by an electric snow blower. It's much easier to use the electric starter than a pull cord during the cold winter.
Larger snow blowers come with several speeds. These speeds help during heavy snows. With several speeds you can choose the right speed that helps your eat your way through snow without the blower becoming clogged.
Tip #3 -- Consider storageBefore you buy the biggest snow blower in the store, consider the amount of storage you have available. Your location and snowfall may dictate the need for a large blower, just be sure you have the space to store it.
Tip #4 -- Consider budgetKnow what you can afford to spend on your new blower before you start shopping. Setting a budget and a limit on the price before shopping will help keep you in line and prevent the temptation of flashy blowers.
To buy the best snow blower for your needs, remember to think about size, features, available storage, and your budget. By following these tips, you'll buy only what you need and save money.
