NoSnow says "Craftsman's green single stage snow thower 2004 is great!!" about Craftsman 5.0 HP Gas Snow Thrower

Love this machine!! I justed cleared two huge storms with this green machine. I have had it for a number of years, but these storms were good tests. Here are my suggestions for buyers of this machine. 1. Always use fuel with a stabliler. 2. Keep the carb clean, either at time of tune up or use a liquid cleaner in the fuel tank. 3. Change the oil. after each season. 4. WHen using the machine, form the letter "V" in the snow. Alternate, left then right. 5. Blow in the direction of the wind. 6. Aim away from windows. 7. If you are expecting over 7-8 inches then try to clear the driveway in two sessions. one at six and one at the end.

The machine works well but imagine my surprise whe I took the unit for service and found out the B&S motor on my unit bought in Nov. 2005 was build in 1989 and was really a 3.5 hp. I wonder how many more of these units, including new o7/08 models are build likewise....

rablinski says "primer" about Craftsman 5.0 HP Gas Snow Thrower

This is a great machine. The only draw back I've had in the past 2 years is the rubber hose running from the primer button to the engine splits on the end and will not prime or start. It requires taking the housing apart, cutting the hose and reattaching it. Time consuming and can be very frustrating. I've had to do it twice now and that's alot of bolts. You also have to take the igniton switch off....

Great machine!Simple to start and easy to operate.Don't get as much snow as I would like in my area,but the time's we do get some this machine makes it fun and easy to clear the snow. When the snow truck plows the street ,and blocks my drive way.I don't sweat it or worry about my back,and the crew thats supposed to clear our sidewalks useing commercial grade snowblowers can't keep up with mine.They are always fighting with their machine ,and can't keep them running....

scribbler says "Good product" about Craftsman 5.0 HP Gas Snow Thrower

I like this snow thrower very much. I have a bad back and shoveling is not an option for me so I bought the snow thrower to get rid of the snow on my driveway and sidewalk. The only problem I've had is in starting it, but I'm not sure how much of that is due to the snow thrower, or due to my bad back. Either way, once it's started, it sure beats shoveling!...

kmart-feed — Sun, 11 Nov 2007 08:15:08 GMT

My husband sent me to buy a snowblower. I picked out this one because it was small enough for me to handle yet big enough to clear the deep snow. We liked it so much, the next year we bought another one. Now we have his and hers....
