Simple to use and works well. Actually works better with a couple of inches of snow than with just a light dusting. Cleans closer to the surface than my gas powered snow blower. Battery powered would be more convenient, but I laid out the cord first and did the driveway from side to side instead of longitudinally, so the cord never got in the way.

So far the shovel has performed exactly as I thought it would. I have a very small laneway and I do not need a big blower, nor do I have to room to store it. My Snow Joe is light weight, starts so easily can easily handle a good foot of snow. The shoot turns easily. It does not handle large chunks of ice well but I knew that would be the case. Follow the instructions for a good extension cord...I have a 100 ft cord.

I used it for the first time today with about 3 inches of fluffy snow, after 5 minutes the chute flopped over, I fixed it and within another 5 minutes the chute flopped over again, so I drilled a hole in the chute base and put a second screw in the base. Also, the plastic blade handle is weak and very loose, it feels like it will break very easily.

I am a retired and have found it impossible to handle bigger Snow Blowers. This Snow Joe has worked well on snows of 1-4 inches. The fact that the electric cord is required does make it harder to use than a battery would be, but given the cost difference, I am willing to put up with the cord. (My brother suggested to keep the cord in a warm area and that helps.)

Bought this product for light use in Ottawa ( ie walkway and backyard paths for 2 dogs). It has worked so well in this capacity. The machine clears up to 4-5 inches of snow with no problems. While the cord can be a pain, for the uses I am using it for it was an excellent purchase. Well done Snow Joe.

It's very small and light
