Ariens Deluxe 24-Inch Snow Blower

4.4

$2,336as of May 27

The Ariens Deluxe 24-inch snow blower offers significantly more power than older models like the 7524, with improved drive system and larger wheels for easier maneuvering. Users praise its ability to throw snow 40 feet ahead and the addition of handwarmers for comfort.

Reviewers recommend it as a solid choice for most users, though those wanting maximum chute adjustment may consider upgrading to the Platinum model.

Strengths

— More powerful engine that doesn't bog down with heavy snow
— Better drive system with larger wheels that are easier to pivot and roll
— Handwarmers provide significant comfort improvement

Watch-outs

— Interlock mechanism requires reaching across with right hand to adjust chute

Ranked #6 in Best Snow Blowers

EGO Power+ Cordless Single-Stage Snow Blower

3.6

$749as of May 27

The EGO POWER+ 21" Single-Stage Snow Blower with Peak Power™ delivers gas-like performance in a cordless, electric package. Reviewers praised its ability to handle heavy, wet snow with up to 50% more power than previous models, throwing snow up to 45 feet. The heated handle grips and directional chute controls add user comfort and convenience.

This snow blower is best suited for users seeking a quiet, emission-free alternative to gas models, particularly those with moderate snowfall needs.

Strengths

— Delivers power of gas-powered snow blowers without noise, fuss, or fumes
— Peak Power™ technology combines two 6.0Ah batteries for up to 50% more power than SNT2110 model
— Throws snow up to 45 feet with 200-degree directional control

Watch-outs

— Requires two 6.0Ah batteries for peak performance
— Limited to 14-car driveway clearing with 8 inches of snow on single charge

How they stack up

Ariens Deluxe 24-Inch Snow Blower

The Ariens Deluxe 24-inch model offers better maneuverability and handwarmers compared to the larger Ariens 28 SHO, but lacks the powerful engine and throwing distance of its bigger sibling. It also doesn't feature the advanced chute control of the Toro SnowMaster 824 QXE, though it provides a more affordable option with solid performance for moderate snowfall.

EGO Power+ Cordless Single-Stage Snow Blower

Unlike the gas-powered Cub Cadet 2X 26 and Ariens Deluxe 28 SHO, the EGO Power+ offers a quiet, emission-free alternative without the need for gas or oil. While it lacks the raw power of the Toro SnowMaster 824 QXE and Ariens models, its Peak Power™ technology delivers impressive performance for its cordless design, though it requires two batteries for peak performance—a limitation not present in the Toro or Ariens units.
