Troy-bilt Flurry 1400 Electric Snow Thrower

 (2 customer reviews)

Used my Troy-Bilt 1400 Flurry the first time about 3 weeks ago. I had 6 inches of snow in my driveway (10 x 50 ft) cleared in about 20 minutes. It worked like a champ. It's very easy to maneuver, and light in weight at about 24#, though by no means cheap in any way. It was the easiest time I have ever spent clearing my driveway. I purchased mine at my local Lowes store for the same price shown here. We just had a little snow last week, only 3 inches, but the bottom inch was ice. This Troy-Bilt chewed through the ice like butter. I use a 14 gauge 100' power cord with no problems. In response to the other poster, this unit is actually a MTD product. So what, it's made in China, what the heck isn't these days. Get over it. It's a nice, well made product at a fair price, with a two year warranty.

This POS blows as much snow onto itself than it does two feet away. you can't start at the middle and blow toward the edges because the snow doesn't go more than a couple of feet and it lands on what you're going to blow next. you have to start at the edges and work toward the middle THEN start back in the middle and work out. I have had electric tools in the past and have never had so much trouble with a cord - primarily because I didn't have to go back over the same area so many times. the softer blade is nice as it doesn't chip concrete but it also doesn't clear snow that's been walked on... like ALL of the snow you had to walk on to clear that path three times. It clogs easily, and your right hand will get tired since the ON handle is only for your right hand (it's a BREEZE to start! and lightweight) This made-in-china product is not "Troy Built" and I would return it if I could.
