Perfect for heavy jobs
The massive 32” wide auger of this machine can clean 21.7” deep snow at a stunning discharge rate of up to 75 T/h. It is perfect for cleaning large 10 - 16 car driveways and long sideways. Moreover, you can lift the auger off the ground and clean snow from your backyard lawn. This is something you are not able to do with the snow blowers that don't have the variable auger hight control.

Con
Bad for maneuvering
The track drive system makes this snow blower a bit clumsy as it simply can not take sharp corners. This is the most noticeable disadvantage of all track driven machines.

Pro
Perfect for working on inclined or uneven terrain

You can start it with a key ignition
Apart from the standard recoil pull-start option, which is featured in pretty much every gas powered snow blower, this machine can also be started by a simple key switch, just like a car.

Pro
Easy speed control
Contrarily to the majority of dual stage snow blowers, which have a discrete speed range, this machine has an infinitely variable speed control (the range of possible speeds is continuous). It lets you choose any speed value below the maximum speed, allowing you to easily get the perfect speed for current snow conditions and personal preferences.

Perfect for gravel and grassy surfaces
To prevent gravel, stones, and grass from entering the auger, you can use a pneumatic strut to raise the auger housing to the appropriate hight. Once the auger is high enough, you can safely clean snow from gravel driveways and grassy backyards.

The engine is very reliable
The 187cc Honda GC190 engine of this machine is very reliable. The GC line engines are used to power Honda’s snow blowers since 2005, when the legendary HS520A snowblower (now discontinued) was introduced . These machines dominated the market for more than 5 years, in fact, there are still a lot of HS520A units in working condition.

Con
The auger blades tend to wear off
As the auger blades of this machine are made entirely from rubber, you will need to occasionally replace them. The authentic auger kits are priced around $59.

Pro
You don't have to mix gasoline with oil
This snow blower is powered by Honda’s 4 stroke 187cc engine. Compared to the regular 2 stroke engines, used by the competitors, the Honda GC190 is by far more advanced. The maintenance of such an engine is very simple, as there is no need to add any oil to the fuel.

Con
You have to push it around
Unlike the 2 stage and 3 stage machines, this one stage machine do not have any wheel drive mechanism, thus the operator has to push it manually. Therefore, this snow blower is suitable only for cleaning flat surfaces.

All metal body
The body of this snow blower is almost entirely built from metal, therefore, the machine is both tough and strong. The only exceptions are two non-metal covers, used for chute and belt protection (those are, in fact, heavy duty plastics).

Con
Steel skid shoes leave scratch marks
It is very likely that you will have to replace the original steel skid shoes with the optional non-abrasive shod shoes. The steel skid shoes can easily scratch concrete and asphalt, thus leave the scratch marks all over your driveway. The optional, non-abrasive skid shoes ($ 40.19), on the other hand, are made from high quality polyethylene (plastics), therefore they can not scratch concrete and asphalt.

Con
It's heavy
The fact that the machine is almost entirely made from metal has one very noticeable downside. The machine becomes very heavy. The total weight of this 24” unit is 212 pounds, it is, in fact, as heavy as a 27” Husqvarna snow blower (which is a much bigger machine).

It will not take too much space
With its handles folded, this snow blower will require only 29” x 34” x 35” of storage space. In contrast, you'll need 50% more storage space to store a 24" Husqvarna's snow blower.

Durable gear case
The solid cast iron gear case is one of the most reliable components of this snow blower. It is used to transmit the force from the impeller shaft to the auger, basically being a simple 2 gear system. The majority of competitors offer a symmetrical gear non-iron gear cases, such gear cases are particularly prone to breakages and oil leaks. The Ariens Compact series snow blowers, on the other hand, have a top loaded gear case, therefore the oil leaking problem is almost fully eliminated (note, that the oil leaking is directly related to the failure of a gear case). The manufacturer, in fact, provides an additional 5 Year gear case warranty, additionally to the standard 3 Year warranty of the machine.
