I own the 24" model for over 5 years and really like how dependable the snow blower is. Starts every time with one push on the button and clears very deep snow. I have upgraded to the 26" model with the bigger motor because my driveway is 75 feet long. Very nice review.

The choke suppose to be closed when starting the engine (all the way to the right ) then open (all the way to the left) once the engine has started.

No need for one here in Atlanta, but it almost, almost made me wish for a foot or two just to be able to use a blower. Looks like a wonderful product, and very user-friendly. Which for those of us who do not have someone around to help, would make it a must buy. Thank you for sharing. And getting your followers that discount. Stay safe.

Thanks for this full review. Showing the assembly is key to this and letting people know it goes together rather easily. Its the middle of the summer here in the northeast and I'm shopping for deals now for the upcoming winter. Last winter my friend lent me his snowblower and I promised myself I would buy one this year. Its well worth it.

I noticed my local Home Hardware had one of these on sale this morning... I watched your video and then decided to grab the last one they had... Thanks for the video.

Great video tutorial. My old company has one. Works pretty good. Had it delivered from Menard's and the delivery person just dropped it in front of the company doorway and not contact anyone it arrived...very bad. Assembling it took almost the same time as you did-have the right tools to make the work easier. But was worth the cost and probably better than the higher priced ones.

I got one of these 3 years ago, so far it works great and has been trouble free.

Son of a biscuit I bought mine yesterday. Thanks for the tutorial on putting it together this damn paperwork isn't the best. I'm not in a hurry to use it but I don't want to get caught with out it like last year's snow storm. Thanks 👍

Our big snow blower always gets jammed up with that heavy wet snow. That machine is very impressive!!

i bought this snow blower after watching your videos,,Corrected installation mistakes after watching ur video again , Thank you :)

My machine came in a metal cage. It went together very easy. Ive had mine for 2 years now. I live in central Minnesota and snow gets very heavy. It works very well. My driveway is not paved. but it is a very good machine.

Great video. Just bought that model. Can't wait to test it out.

Thanks for that! I am thinking about hitting the button on Amazon for this now.

Ordered the same one and after watching your video it’s time to put it together. This weekend 12+ inches of snow. 🤩

I like the way you take time to explain, nicely done.

Awesome video just bought one I have their lawnmowers I’m curious with the snowblower hopefully the assembly ain’t that difficult I’ll just keep watching one rams over till I get it right

Where I live, we're lucky if we get an inch of snow every 5 to 10 years. :(. I still liked the video. Your always informative and show how easy things can be. I envy you having snow, lol. That is one awesome machine! It really cut through that heavy, thick snow. I'm also happy for you that you got a new snow blower. YAY! 😁

Thank you so much for the assembly directions. Whilst I'm rather good at reading instructions and following them.....the ones I received had gotten wet and unreadable. I still managed to put my snowblower together and it started right up.

Thanks for the video. I ordered it 3 days ago. It's great. this machine

Thanks to the video I bought one. Looking forward to use it.

Thanks for the in depth review.

Great review. Thanks for the info.

Bought one from wally world. Put it together really easily. After viewing your vid I probably could have save 5 min or so. Hardest part was folding up the box it came in to recycle it. Nice video...now I need snow...not!

I just bought one today. Ready for the chitown/indiana snow

Got one too, works well but handle bolts, M8 x 1.25 x 15 do not have lock washers or lock tite on threads. I had one fall out. There are nutserts in the frame and so easy to remove bolts and put some blue lock tite on threads and reinstall. Good to do before you lose a bolt like I did.

I just got mine today and had to find an instructional video to see someone put it together after I reached a spreed bump! Had it all assembled except I could not attach the speed control connection rod! The pins would not get through the holes of the rod at their connection points? I thought it was crazy. It looks like you're using the same kind of pin but I cant get mine through. Very frustrating! I could run down to Home Depot and find pins that will work but in the mean time I've reached out to the Amazon seller. Hopefully, this will be the only problem I have with the product. Great Video though and Enjoy yours!

Thank you for sharing. Just purchased it last night and used your code. Thank you. I will be using this vid of course to assemble it since I’m mor of a visual person👍

Wow, that thing did a great job cutting through that hard snow. I have a pretty nice Ariens snowblower, but I paid almost three times as much for it. Seems like a really good deal.

Just got one can't wait to use it!

There is one serious issue with Powersmart. They are near impossible to get parts for, so if anything on the machine breaks you are out of luck. Most repair shops don’t do work on these things outside of standard maintenance and customer support is really bad. So if anyone wishes to own one, be sure to keep it serviced and don’t push it beyond the limits.

We don't get snow here but I just love those things, just by watching this I feel like a kid on Christmas.😅😳

I bought the 24" version and it's been awesome for the last 4 going on 5 years.. it just now the other day through a belt. I have to fix it.. saw a video on fixing it.. super simple.. and back up and running ready for season 5 and with zero problems in 4 years .. it was well worth the money...

Great job! Thanks.

Thank you, I just bought one!

Really it was helpful thanks 🙏🏻

Just used your discount code. Thank You!

Thanks it was very helpful

Just got our 12 Month old, 1 season, blower out of the shed to make sure every thing is ready for winter. One of the tyres was flat, cut the story short, took of the tyre for repair, very disappointed to find that ether the retailer Homedepot or supplier had used slime to stop a leak, for those who have never used it, its a temporary fix on punctures, and you must clean it out at first opportunity. The damage to the wheel is unbelievable. Took some time to clean most of the stuff out of the rim and tyre, repaired the tire and refitted. Hope the rest of the machine gets us through this winter. EDIT. ours was not boxed, it came assembled on a pallet

I am buying one because of your review

For as long as I can remember, and with his tongue firmly in his cheek, my 94 yo Dad has said "If all else fails, read the instructions." :)

Nice job

great video, easy to follow...I just purchased one from Home Depot and put it together following your tutorial...thank you for putting this up..Northern Maine, lets see how she holds up to the task

Thanks for the help

I bought one and am absolutely satisfied with it's performance and ease of use less to mention I only paid $500.00 for it brand new.

Well I bought my first snow blower before this video and I love it runs great and I bought it at Menards on sale under 500 bucks Worth every penny. only problem I had is after our third snow Storm here in Illinois I broke the arger belt but they replaced it hard to find the belt thou but a great buy and snow blower

The Power Smart snowblower looks like a great machine to handle the big snowfalls. I would love one of those machines but I live in a highrise and the snow is cleared for me.

Thanks!

I've owned just about every snowblower known to man and for the average domestic user a snowblower is a snowblower is a snowblower but if you are really into these things you need to start talking friction disc transmission versus cheap assed plastic box transmission, ease of serviceability , ease of parts sourcing and impeller to housing gap. Yes these economical chinese snowblowers will do most folks with a small to light moderate driveway with litle to no gravel, but when push comes to shove and you're up against heavy snow 18 inches plus I'm puting my eggs in the cub cadet, Husqvarna, toro, troy built or honda basket. I do realize not everyone has 2k to plunk down on a snowblower so these chinese units definitely have a valid and needed place in the market. Clean it off after every use, plaster the entire machine in fluid film after use, keep the tank full of gas with some methyl hydrate added and use yamalube fuel conditioner and you'll be golden. Source out 2 new belts and many shear-pins too as soon as you buy your new snowblower and repeat after me "I SWEAR TO NEVER USE A CONVENTIONAL BOLT IN PLACE OF A SHEAR PIN EVER!!!!" and again your economical chinese snowblower will serve you just as well as my 3k Husqvarna....

My driveway is on a fairly steep incline (20-25%), do you think the self-propel would be able to "walk" up the hill while the auger is under power?

Nice!

Great vid!! Turn the choke completely off after you have started it, otherwise it will be running too rich. These blowers have no throttle control.

i love it

Hell of a lot better than shoveling!

Ordered the 26" one today at the pro desk in Home Depot, $630 with 10% military discount and free next day home delivery. Hoping it's a good machine, all other comparable 26" models are $800-900. I've had their $199 lawn mower with bagger for 2 years and it works great, has features of a $300 push mower.

Nice little compact snowblower. I don't have one. My brother shovels. But he is super slow at shoveling and is out there way to long then he should be LOL

My powersmart pull cord is stuck brand new out the box... any suggestions? I tried electric start it makes a clanging sound.

nothing beats a winter in the Midwest or in the Dakotas to the NE storm suck. Add single to minus degree temps to make it a jolly good ugh.

Would it work for somewhere super cold and snowy like Edmonton?

Great video , by chance do you have the dimensions of the box, want to see if it will fit in back of my vehicle . TIA

The black part that the snow blow tru keep coming off mines when the snow coming up tru it…how do you keep that attached to the blower?

I have this model, bought new at Home Depot for $412 on a closeout a month or so ago. Worked great for 2 snowfalls but third snowfall was about 30" but light and fluffy snow and it fried the auger belt. I bought a 4L340 fractional hp belt to replace the 4L885 which is about .9" shorter but have yet to try it... I keep this at a nearby property I have, but have an older Snowtek 24E at my house, and the snowtek had zero problems with the 30" of snow.. When the Powersmart was operational, it was pretty impressive for a $400 unit, but the Snowtek was only $700 new which is still cheap considering.

thank you

Thank you for your review question do you need special gas or ethanol free?

Unfortunately, I purchased 1 late last year. and NEVER got a chance to put it to use. Now this year I hope it will be different. I do have a PROBLEM with their Customer Service I tried to get in touch with them. I was on HOLD the first time for 23 minutes . I hung up and tried again and was on HOLD for 36 minutes....all I heard both times was music and the second time on a few occasions the phone did ring but, than went back to the music, Had I known theri Customer Service was this BAD, I would have NEVER spent the $$... Also, I did try on the other prompts as directed and NEVER got to talk with anyone... I give this video a 10+..Thanks

So I tried to adjust the tension for the chute like you did but it seems nearly impossible to get it to turn as smooth as yours. Any ideas of what I should do? Bought mine today. Thanks..

Hey, just want to add that there are drain and fill plugs on the auger gearbox. They're the only "vertical" bolts on the auger (one on top one on bottom) Don't forget to put some gear oil in there otherwise it'll wear out prematurely.

Are the wheels suppose to lock while the engine is off? Has no problems engaging while on.

Buy this snowblower here - amzn.to/38j4xHA Here is an updated 1 year review video on this snowblower. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i5-ig7GcyJnGlXk.html Thanks for watching!

I just got this snow blower and it turns on great but the things don’t spin can anyone help me??

I bought one and the manual says the oil capacity is 16oz, I noticed the oil was too low I had to add more to aprox 20oz. The only difference is that mine is 26" the rest is identical.

i purchased this one last february, ran great, went to run it today and it will not start. it cranks, but it will not run.. im lost. no idea whats going on.

I just. Noticed 2 holes under the machine that seems to be leaking oil. Is that normal.

How long was the discount code for? It's not working for me.

did you get the one with the LED lights

Sold

I live in Norcal and in a valley and it doesn’t snow here. Nice video however for our move soon.

Thank you great video i bought one from home depot $450

Is there a way to bolt down the chute to the base

I just purchased this, having a little trouble with rotating the chute, it sticks a little. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the video. I have the same exact one but wish mine worked like yours. 2 yrs old barely used but found the auger barely spins. Trying to figure out issue, any ideas? Bought at Home Depot already put together.

I tried connecting the 2 cords in the back that are attached to the handles. Any easy way to make both the cords at the bottom longer so they can be connected?

I have been enjoying your channel. I do dyis around home. Can you recommend a battery operated nail gun. Nothing too expensive just for baseboards etc. Thank u. God bless.🙏

Im having trouble installing the Speed control connection rod. Idk if it’s me but I feel like it’s waaay off. Any tips on how I might be able to adjust it or fix it

I am waiting for my powersmart snow blower. Great video. . Can it be used safey on gravel/dirt driveways?

I had one of these I had it for 2 months and returned it and customer service is not even a thing the phone number goes straight to voice mail and they don’t call back

Grabbed a few days ago and when I first started the blades were rotating for about 30 seconds then they stopped and haven’t rotated since does anyone know what’s wrong

I got this snowblower a few days ago. It included a package of 4 1.5” bolts with nuts. I can’t find what they’re for in the set up instructions and I didn’t see you use them in the video. Am I missing a step? Thanks

Nice video. Interested in one of these but wanted to ask what’s the warranty on this unit?

The mostly plastic chute and gearing will be the first casualty ⛄

Auger housing is super flimsy on mine. Had to reinforce it with a 1x3 piece of wood. Very cheap..

Wish I saw video before I bought snow blower for the 5% discount

Mind launches apples pretty well

Mine came with the throttle broken 😪 hate platic levers

The clearing of #snow is never an issue in my neck of the woods. 🇯🇲🇯🇲 #SnowBlower Nevertheless loved the content. **Product Assembly, Demonstration and Review** 👍👍👏👏

I was told to use premium gasoline (91 octane) for this snowblower, anyone have an opinion on that?

Advice-- put never seize on the wheel axels

Good morning Mr. Fixer, l got one 2 months ago, used it was running great then would not go forward or back can you help me here. I am a Disable Veteran of Vietnam and l need it. Thank you for you time.

are the discharge shut and adjustable skid plates made of plastic ?

There are so many different model numbers for their blowers that all look the same and dont seem to differentiate the difference in the description.

How come the review is for the 24" and the link in your description is the 26"?
