Which Snowblower/snowthrower to buy?

Quential asked:


I live in ontario canada. I get about 12 inches of snow.
I also have a 4 car driveway which i have to clear. But i also have to clear compact snow that gets pushed in front of my driveway as a result of the city’s snowblowers that push the road snow to the front of our driveway.
So i need a good snowblower (a Two Stage Snow Blower) that can get rid of the snow blocking my driveway. Which should i get? (Pref. from home depot, canadian tire, rona, etc.)
I’m willing to spend max 800ish.

gerroon asked:


Thinking of moving to south Colorado near my Sis but would need to clear my own drive to get to the major highway. Push snowblowers, no way! Tried to research tractors/Bobcats but too confusing. Would only have this problem 2-3 weeks out of the year. I drive Saturn Ion; Son drive F150. Any suggestions? I’m not rich.

with snowblowers does the.5 horse mean electric start?

jde2399 asked:


i was told a 5hp engine is the same SIZE enging as a 5.5hp.. that if a snowblower says a .5 horse (3.5 or 4.5 etc etc..) it is just identifying an electric start on the unit.
