for Craftsman Professional 30" 357cc* Dual-Stage Snow Thrower w/ EZ Steer prices
I bought this model in the early fall with price not being the issue, when it comes to performance. When I was able to get this model for about $800, I was sold based on the size engine, 30" path and the "easy-to-use" features. I didn't find it hard to put together at all, just needed about 30 minutes. Now, after using this beast 2 times, I am happy to write a review about how it gets right down to the concrete and clears a nice clean path with each swipe! With a 3-stall drive, it helps get the job done in under 20 minutes and tosses the snow far enough, the large build-up/piles along the...
read full review »I purchased this snowblower last weekend, before the first snowfall here in Minnesota. I wanted to have a machine that can handle most anything Mother Nature could throw at me. I think I may have found it.
This is my first snowblower. It was very easy to assemble. A few of the directions were hard to follow, but overall it the manual was very helpful. My suggestion - read it before you just go off and put this thing together on your own!!!
It took a few pulls to get it started. My suggestion would be to not use the full choke. Once I took that off, it started right up. That has been the case both...
read full review »Bought this fall and was very excited about the first snowfall. Machine started very easily and doesn't really need a choke if it's a warmer day. Got it out on the walk and the control joystick was shocking me! ZAP ZAP! I was not happy and figured it was a short in the heated hand grips or headlight. Not the case. Apparently static electricity can build up in the right snow conditions that transfer through the control cabling to ME and my wet (albeit warm) hands. The service tech ordered a grounding kit for it that will take care of any (unlucky) snow conditions in the future.
I DO agree...
read full review »I bought mine in 2009. Even though it was a soft winter season for CT, I have to clear our driveway and private drive, which are more than 100 yards in length. Additionally, because of my job, it is critical to get the job done as fast as possible, which is why I chose this machine over the models made for average home use. This machine made the job a breeze. If you do it right, you'd never have to clear an area twice. The power (both throwing and traction) is amazing and the steering controls are VERY helpful for handling this monster, as is the chute control mechanism. But, you must...
read full review »the craftsman professional snow thrower is ONE Great investment!! if you have a loved one that has been shoveling the snow by hand for 20 + years & you want THAT person to be around for at least the NEXT 20 + years they DESERVE THE BEST!!! buy them a TOY that they are not only use, but ENJOY using, turning THE task into a fun time. Boys & their toys!!!
This is a great machine and the reasonably priced 5yr service contract is above par.
The best part of this purchase was that I purchased this from Sears.
Sears has gone above and beyond for supporting our troops. Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years.
I will support Sears for their support to the troops!
As Chicago's blizzard turned into The Big Dig, this thrower was, by far, the crowned champion of the neighborhood. I was able to plow through 8 long driveways and 13 sidewalks of my neighbors while a few single stage owners struggled to complete their own driveway.
We had 21" of snow with drifting near 40".
I never thought a 21" tall intake would be a criticism, but that was my only one. The snow shoot allowed a wide range of snow placement options and when there is at much snow, a place to allow it to accumulate is a valuable commodity. I was able to launch the snow far enough to clear...
read full review »Last year we had record snowfall, I live on a corner lot and I also owne a shop. This snowblower never let me down. It is easy to start and control, and it will put the snow exactly where you want it. This model is also a great value. I shopped other stores and found sears was a quite a bit less expensive. Save yourself the trouble of shopping around everybody, and pick up this unit.
