Great cheap snowblower. I have used this for the past 6 years. I recently bought a new one so I don't need this one anymore. This is one I rebuilt. It didn't run so I put a new 6.5 HP predator engine on it. I had to make changes in order to make the new engine fit, so you have basically 2 speeds forward and one speed backwards, but that is all you really need anyway. Any as I said I have used it for a while and used to do my driveway, two neighbors driveways and all the sidewalks. It works great.
