So glad I just watched this review before buying. That 252cc has nowhere near enough power. I've owned 8 or 9 different snow-blowers over the years and neither one ever lost power before traction. Thanks for posting. You just saved me a ton of aggravation!

as a lazy fuck who sometimes has to clear two snowfalls in one.. this actually did well for 8hp. What happens is 2.5' becomes 2' of snow with the same moisture content. It melts a bit and mixes in, freezes, etc. Makes for a much tougher job. I have this same model. That said, a larger engine would really be nice lol. You should bog that thing down until she blows and then make a video of your toro with a 2 cylinder harbor freight engine :D

Thanks for the video, Tool Boss! I am trying to find the fully assembled dimension of this HD 828 snow blower, but I got conflicting information from Toro web site and Home Depot, some said it's 58D x 47H x 31.5W but some said the height is 35". I am confused. I think the height point from joystick to ground I assume.. I have a tight space, I just want to make sure it will fit. Do you have that information? That would be appreciated....

It's better practice to cut the snow with a shovel & let it fall down, the snowblower won't bog down as much & it's not labor intensive, you're still not shoveling, just breaking the snow up.

Hi Heath. Just wondering how you like the 828? Purchased the HD 928, 2019 and wish I got the 1028 instead the first year but now realize the 9 has plenty of power for whatever condition you have. Even 3' end of driveway Snow piles without bogging out! The 828 is probably just a little slower to get through.
@heathcolwell91903 жыл бұрын
@@PFred-ew4zd lol, I powered it up. The "storm" was a bust and we only got about 4 inches. I started blowing snow as I left the garage. I made it about 30 feet and the drive mechanism for the wheels broke with a "clunk". I returned it and ordered the 30"Ariens with the 306cc engine. Where the drive mech broke it was probably 2.5 inches deep. Very disappointing. I'm hoping to have better luck with the Ariens 😀

@@PFred-ew4zd I didn't even take the cover off to find out. I was in a rush to get the driveway clear so my wife could drive to work so I borrowed the neighbors thrower and picked up a trailer rental and loaded it. The customer service rep at home depot said "we can probably fix this" to which I replied "so could I, but it died in the first minute of using it so I'm not interested.". If it broke again next season I would have had only myself to blame knowing it has such a weak point

I am deciding between an Ariens and the Toro...... For all those eXpert engineers who are saying this machine is underpowered..... Open the eyes and look at what he is trying to go through. That snow is deep and compacted. Any machine would have an issue with that unless you get a cat front loader. Come on use common sense and stay off the internet.
@suprand2 жыл бұрын
Lol. I’m between the ariens and toro as well. Both look great. Ariens build quality may be ever so slightly better. Toro joystick looks way better. Debating on the 28 inch 252cc powermax vs the 30 inch 302cc powermax. Snow throwing is a 4 foot difference only. Ariens is similar in price but you can get a 28 inch ariens with over 300 cc motor.
