I purchased this item being a little skeptical of the durability of the blade to perform on a 975ft gravel driveway. More scary was the endurance of my 19HP LT1000 which is 8 years old. I expected both to shatter to pieces. The first snow storm of the year hit the Hudson Valley with about 10-12 inches. I was absolutely impressed with both the blade and my tractor. Once I got going I glided. You will need to ensure that you make rounds every 3 inches of snow. So with heavy snow you will be out there every hour or so to make a pass. But I have to tell you I had fun. Definitely you will need both chains and weights. The blade adjusted flawlessly. I recommend greasing all moving joints on the blade apparatus before using. The blades only limitation is the distance it can push the snow to the sides. If you are expecting back to back storms you may want to get your snow thrower out to widen the path and give the blade some room to push the second snow. The only wounded part was the battery in the tractor, which could not handle the cold stress, I will pick up a heavy duty battery tomorrow. My main motivation to purchase this item was the amount of money I was giving to the "Plow Guy". It will pay for itself in one winter. If your like me who is tired of paying 100 bucks everytime it snows but can't afford the Tractor Snow Thrower attachment, this is the best investment for the money.
