Works GREAT. Some tinkering to mount it.,

This product is one of those items I should have bought years ago.
I did have to do some work to mount it however. Even though I had the mounting brackets as low as I could go it still was way too tall. I'm not short but even a seven footer would fit comfortably inside it. I had to drill new holes in the supplied upright bars to lower it. One tip I'll give is to take the whole upper frame that they made for easy removal in the house to install the cover. That is if you don't have the luxury of a heated garage like me. In the cold it just would not stretch over the frame to mount. Once it was warm it installed with no problem.
A must have product if you snow blow.

Don't Wait Til It Snows,

Assembly of this product is not a cake walk. The instructions are acceptable but hardly stellar. The assembly process is most akin to assembling one of the umbrella tents with the snap together plastic rods.
The most difficult part is connecting the tubes together that have clear plastic tubing sleeves to retain the pieces. Very stiff and inflexible in the cold. maybe a hair dryer or hot water would make it easier.
As it has yet to snow, I do not know how it will perform on the job. FOR SURE, DO NOT WAIT TIL IT SNOWS TO ASSEMBLE IT. If you do, you be a cold, frustrated, and unhappy camper.
One more thing. Mine was missing a little pouch to stow small items. Door Opener, iPod, or whatever. I emailed them as instructed for missing parts. Unfortunately they don't have any. Maybe that's why I didn't get mine.

My review is about the install. I have an ariens deluxe snow blower and guessed where to start the installation on the handle bars. It was a question of how high or low to put the main mounting brackets. I ended up being a tad high because the fabric bottom part of the cover will block my headlight. Not a big deal to move the brackets. The "slide together" bars are a tad tedious to get them all together and facing the right direction. The whole cover can pivot and you have to over tighten the pivot joints to try to stop the cover from swinging down on your head. Looks like a future problem. I have not used the product yet. Still waiting for snow.
I think I will enjoy having the cover when the freezing blowing snow isn't hitting my face. The cover does look good when its installed.
