I live in PA (Philadelphia region) and I own the Toro Power Clear 518ZE model and it did perfectly fine 2 days ago with 6-7" snow with the top layer being wet. I can definitely say I was pushing it beyond its rated limits but it was able to tackle the job and succeed with no problems. Love it, highly consider. We don't get much snow. Have a great holiday and keep the great content coming. Great video!

Bought the Toro 721rc 4 yrs ago and I can safely say it will go through 10+ inches. I change the oil, scraper and paddles every season. The plug was changed after 2 seasons and I just replaced the drive belt last month, no problems and love that it's a 4 cycle(no mix gas). Your choice of the 721 for a homeowner would be mine too, small footprint(foldable handle helps) to store in the off season and powerful enough for larger snowfalls. You can manhandle it in/out of a pick-up bed, but unless you have a strong back, not something I would advise.

With a driveway as long and steep as mine, the 2 stage is needed. I live in the lower Hudson Valley region of NY and while we don't typically get multiple storms dumping multiple feet at a time, the bigger the better. My driveway is too narrow to plow too. I use an older Ariens 2 stage blower non tracked (really no need with the aggressive tired on it) with interlocking steering control. Makes life SOOO much easier when having to turn the machine since it allows it to turn on a dime which prevents you from having to muscle it around. 328 cc motor, 14 inch impeller diameter, etc. The only downfall is it's 327 lbs since it's all steel.

I used to haul around a real heavy Ariens blower (stationary but a beast) on and off of my bed with a ramp (slippery, just hell) until you introduced me to the 518 two years ago, its been a God send. Easy to lift on and off and it handles snow like a boss. I've blown up to 7-8 inches no problem. I bought mine brand new $425. Love it so that I found a used one (2 ysr old) this past summer, got it for $125 as a back up. Now I have the two in my bed, ready to crush it when needed.

Hello Brian, Can you tell me if you think it is worth the extra money and get the QZE model with the quick shoot trigger even though it's not their RC commercial model, or is it a better idea to go with the RC model for "commercial use" (just doing residential homes)?? I know I can always upgrade the paddles and belt on the QZE model (more money$$$), but is it that big of a deal to use the manual shoot? I am not worried about the warranty because everything Ive read suggest these things last forever. Thanks for any help you or anyone else may be.

First off we are getting a good dumping of snow here in Central Massachusetts and I’m ecstatic about it. Now aside from my 8’ Fisher XBLADE snowplow, 3 different 2 stage snowblowers. New to me this year (have only used it once) is the Honda HSS1332ATD. I also have the Toro Powermax 826 OE. Nearly 20 years old but I also have the MTD Gold 26. In my opinion there’s no “bad” snowblowers out there (although I’m not a fan of electric). I’ve never owned any but I’ve used Ariens, Cub Cadet & John Deere snowblowers as well and I liked them too

Need advice. I have a 400’ concrete winding drive with a steep section about 50’ with a grade as much as 18.5 degrees. I live in KY with annual snowfall of only 8-10” average snowfall but when it snows, I’m trapped on my hill till it thaws with car at bottom. So, I’m looking at UTV with snow blade or an inline Toro single stage snowblower model#39915. I’d rather go with the blower to save a lot of cash but is my driveway grade too steep. Any advice helps. I’ve never owned or used either by the way. Thanks!

My go to snowblowers are the Toro CCR 2450's. I actually acquired a 2nd unit and of course, it hasn't snowed😂. On their 16th year and they start on the 1st pull and can do 7-8" of heavy snow. Little 5hp 2 stroke engine has lots of power for its age and size, and it just never breaks down. If I need an upgrade, then the 721/821 would be my choice

Love to hear about an Ariens machine lasting 45 years! My dad has one that's almost as old. Its first winter was during the Blizzard of '78 in Massachusetts. It's needed some work over the years, but still going strong. My dealer has a 1960's-era Ariens on the sales floor for display, complete with original marketing brochure. Push drive, hard plastic wheels, all steel construction and absolutely no safety features. In short: I want it!!

It’s like you guys have 2 industries to prep for, grass and snow. For me in Australia I mow all year and I’ve never even seen snow!

Hey Brian just finished watching the video, another awesome one in the books brother!!! So l have the 518 is awesome it sits on the side of the box l tie it to the salter and backtrack for the guys to have on heavier storms and they love it!!! Also l have the 721 l put it in the back of one of the plow trucks to clear sidewalks and store fronts Love the 721 too Just wondering how wide is that Shovel ??? We only use the 21” Garant snow shovels there $16. There light and last for 2 season Love the Chanel can wait for the next video here or with FPO2 👍

That is the 36" version. It's perfect for one pass on a sidewalk when its only 2-3" of snow etc. I love the plastic shovel with no metal cutting edge!

The toro 21inch blue shoot handle is the worst for doing commercial lots, the blue shoot freezes and won't let the shoot neck turn side to side in freezing cold days.

Does anyone have a problem with the chute freezing up when its under 32 degrees? No matter what I spray on it, nothing works, always have to take the chute off to dry off before it will work again, its a new machine! Any suggestions guys or gals, pretty annoying when you have a route to do, also Toro on this model went to the plastic tires, tires constantly get plugged with snow which then, the damn tires won't turn, you then have to push it, this things to heavy for that, I've heard others complain of the same thing. The dealership didn't seem to care, any suggestions please? Should I get a 721 instead, I really need you suggestions on what to do. Different single stage snowblower other than a Toro, I've only had Toro's. Seems like the last 4-5 years thing aren't thought ahead until the customer gets stuck with all these problems, these things aren't cheap either, Thanks for listening.

i know you probably havent used it yet but can you give us a review once youve used to Q821? my 721R from i want to say 2013? is kind of seen better days and is not giving me the same power it did 7 years ago when i first got it i really didnt want to spend the over $1000 bucks my toro dealer wants here in canada ontario for the new 821s yet i do very small places love the single stage units i normally only need shovels my br 700 on easy days and harder days i need a single stage so i might be grabbing that 821 so id love a review maybe by Feb if you could or so thanks again for your great vids brian all the best in the holiday season

@@BriansLawnMaintenance yeah i work in a retirement community similar to those videos you do at your moms place all one floor homes small walkways so on easier days on those long narrow builder slab walkways my br 700 works beauty on slightly heavier ones the single stage suits my needs whizzling in and out of parking areas some are shared driveways with neighbors so i dont bug people to move cars so another reason the single stage is great already had about 6 significant snow events so far most just backpack and shovels with my buddy and myself i think ive used the 721 once but yeah ive been poking in on some other youtube vids on the 821 they seem a bit more powerful and the newer look is pretty nice looks upgraded my 721 though has the other chute version than yours as well which i think i prefer my older chute style if you remember how those looked
