o far so good. It seems to handle light powdery snowfall without any problems. A couple inches is no problem. It has a harder time with mixed or heavy slush and forget about heavy ice conditions.

The 3 things I've noticed worth mentioning, aside from the obvious for a product like this. The paddles/blades are a plastic that seems 'relatively' heavy duty. After the first use, I've noticed some wear on the blade edges. It looks like it was ground down a bit in a couple spots. That's reasonable if it hit concrete and there wasn't enough height clearance but my driveway is entirely flat. I don't know what did it, but I hope it wasn't the light sheet of ice below the snow. I'll be able to determine that after using it more. In the future, I hope there's an easy way to replace the paddles because this unit doesn't have the typical paddle bolt on replacement system and I don't see it being sold as a part/accessory on their official website. That's not to say that you probably can't contact them directly and purchase replacement parts though.

The 2nd thing is that depending on the angle of the shoot, powdery snow at some angles tend to shoot/leak out the sides of the shoot. The gaps on the shoot tend to change slightly depending on the direction and angle. It could be designed that way, possibly to avoid getting ice freezing up in gaps. I figured out what angles don't leak and simply don't use it at those angles. Not a big deal for me except for the third issue.

The 3rd thing is that snow tends to leak into the battery compartment. As long as it doesn't melt in there, I'm OK. but if it's sunny enough to melt, then I'd have concerns about that. You also need to consider using it during a snowfall to avoid heavy snowfall buildup.

2/09/2015 - Location: New England - Pros
Easy to assemble
Easy to operate
Lightweight
Blows the snow as stated
Easy to maneuver
Grabs 10 inches of snow easy
Price for the extra power and width worth it especially if you have along driveway
Plug n play no oil no gas no waste
No rust since most parts are made of plastic

Cons
The wheel doesnt have good traction since its just a plastic wheel, similar to kids toys
Scraper at the bottom would be better steel, again made of plastic
The auger is made of hard rubber - I would love to see real metal auger for this price range
Over a foot of snow your better off getting a gas two stage - this wont cut it

Overall it works great! Saves my back and cuts my job in half. Totally worth price since my driveway cost $100 to plow.
