I like the idea of a battery powered snow shovel when you only get a few inches of snow and don't want to use the snowblower or a shovel injuring your back. I just wish that you were able to direct the snow sideways so that you can blow shovel the sidewalk while it throws the snow left or right on to the lawn.

Thanks Peter! That was an excellent demonstration and review. I usually encounter a lot of slush in my area of Canada. My Toro snowblower is not able to lift the slush at times and it just falls down the chute or clogs it up. You should do a follow up on thus video about your using it for a winter and any pros and cons of Toro Electric Shovels. Has there been any significant wear on the paddles or shovel itself? Cost of replacement parts if needed. I know that replacement parts for my Toro snowblower are quite costly. $40 for a replacement Halogen bulb. I just converted over to LED. Not paying that much for a single Halogen bulb!

I have one of the old Toro Power shovels that you plug into an extension cord. Someone chucked it out because they got a rechargeable one. We didn't have a snow thrower, so I grabbed it. Dug us out of 10 inches (25cm) 2 days ago. We had to do it in 2 passes though lol, like using a weed eater. First pass took the top of the snow off, then second pass was down to the pavement. Easily threw thick heavy snow about 25ft (about 7.5m).

These things are lifesavers if you have a lot of steps and landings that are freshly covered in heavy, wet snow. The trick is to start at the bottom of the stairs and work your way up. Hold the handle vertically, standing on each step you have just cleared as you do the next step up so you can get close to the stringers and shave off the snow in a couple of passes. Though it took me a few tries to get the hang of it, I wouldn't give it up for anything now as it can move hundreds of pounds of snow with far less effort than it takes using a shovel. On steps It's Important to remove the snow before it gets walked on.

Great question, Paul! I am now definitely within the Toro family. Once I got a few batteries and chargers, it was just way easier to stay in the family, and what I like is that the batteries have different capacities too. I can use the giant battery on my snowblower, but the smaller one on my weed wacker. But most of them will accept the bigger battery, so if I know I'm gonna blow a lot of leaves, I can use the bigger battery, and the quality seems top notch!
