How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsIt does what it is supposed to do-move snow
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 17, 2023
It won't handle 12"+ drifts, but does well on lessor amounts. Battery lasts to do my double wide, two and a half car long driveway.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly strong
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 2, 2023
Style: 40 volt 4Ah 22-InchVerified Purchase
Lightweight but good for snowfall up to 3”. More than that and a double pass is needed since it floats. Plastic blades so far have held up against iceballs that the snowplowing of the street throws up into the driveway mouth.

5.0 out of 5 stars So far, So great!
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 23, 2021
Style: 40 volt 4Ah 22-InchVerified Purchase
I've owned this little powerhouse for only about 2 weeks and 2 snowstorms so far, and we've used it exactly 2x. I'm writing this on Feb 23 2021, and I live in NE Pennsylvania. This little snow blower has proven to be a marvelous machine so far, and has worked well on our long gravel driveway. If it holds up, I'll be thrilled. If it doesn't, Ill try to update this review.
A few parts needed to be put together on arrival, no tools needed, pretty straightforward. The only difficulty I had was a small bracket on the center of the handle to hold the hand crank was put on backwards by the manufacturer, and had to be removed and reversed for the crank to fit.
I charged the battery fully before use. Once charged, the snow blower powered on and worked for 30 min straight in a 4-5" accumulation of light powder, almost exactly the time needed to clear my driveway. It even did a noble job of clearing some older heavier accumulation, but I had to be careful to keep it tilted to keep the auger off the ice below it.
It doesn't clear snow down to the ground, but leaves about 1/4" layer behind. This is perfect for us, since it helps avoid the problems I have heard about when using a snow thrower on a gravel driveway. the layer below is easily ignored or quickly cleared with a shovel. It's lightweight (maybe 20 lbs?) and easy to maneuver. In areas of looser gravel, I tilt the blower back on it's wheels a bit to leave a deeper snow layer, works fine.
Battery charge time is supposed to be 2.5 hrs, though I haven't watched it to confirm. That's actually perfect for going back out in a continuing storm.
I wouldn't recommend it for more than 4-6" at a time by going out multiple times in a storm, but it can do quite a lot, and so far I love it!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 18, 2022
Style: 40 volt 4Ah 22-InchVerified Purchase
Got my snow shovel delivered today. Note: I used the word snow shovel. This is not to be mistaken with a snow blower.
Set up took 10 min. Comes in a box easily carried into the house and set up is simple.
Turned It on after charging the battery that comes with it. Also bought a back up batter at a ridiculous $130. Turned right over. Problem is I have no snow to blow.
But my goal on this is to have an ez no hassle option to clean walk ways and around cars. And paths out to the yard for the dogs. I do not expect this to be doing anything over 6 inches.
Construction sees good except the chute seems very flimsy and the rotation handle is cheap.
I’ll up date when I get snow. W my luck that will be next year.
Got my nor’easter- get out early and often for this thing to work. Very weak. 2 to 4 inches at a time. Anything over that and it bogs down. And it wasn’t even a wet snow. Battery lasted 20 min so get an extra one or two batteries.
Contemplating returning. Over all disappointing.

5.0 out of 5 stars For an electric snow thrower it’s great!
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 22, 2021
Style: 14-Amp 22-InchVerified Purchase
I gave this 5 stars because I knew what I was purchasing, an electric, corded snow thrower. Having said that you must not expect it to work like a gasoline snow blower,( which I’ve also owned in the past).

I purchased this for our vacation home, which we are hardly ever in during the winter months. This is a great option because I do not have to worry about it not starting after years of storage, like a gasoline version.

It handled 5-6” of very light powered snow with no issues, however, as I got closer to the end of my driveway, near the street, the compacted snow pushed in by the snow plows was to much for this to Handel. But my son was able to knock it down for me into 2-3” and I was able to remove the rest of the snow.

5 Important things to point out;

1.It’s very easy to assemble, no tools necessary, just a few screw knobs to prop up the handles, (like a lawn mower)

2.it’s light enough to carry up on a deck to clear snow.

3. It’s amperage is just under 15amps so any outlet around the house should be able to handle it without tripping a circuit breaker.

4.It has a 22” wide intake, which is a good size to clear a single path.

5. As for the price, it’s a good value for what it is.

2.0 out of 5 stars Drive belt comes off often.
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 23, 2022
Style: 14-Amp 22-InchVerified Purchase
This is not a substitute for a real snow blower. Yes it's light. But that's not a good thing with a snow blower. Being light means this tries to climb up on the snow instead of cut through it. The drive belt slips off while in use. Meaning you have to disassemble the thing in the cold and try to stretch a cold-hardened rubber belt across two rings. There is no tensioner to release or tighten the belt. You have to get it back on at full spacing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good light weight snow blower
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 2, 2022
Style: 40 volt 4Ah 22-InchVerified Purchase
For a battery powered snow blower this is a great asset to have on hand. It's not powerful enough to clear over a foot of heavy snow, but light weight snow fall it clears without issue. It doesn't throw snow as far as a traditional gas powered snow blower, but, for what this is it gets the job done.

Fortunately I have other Earthwise products so I have additional batteries on hand. If you're only using a single battery I'm afraid you'll have to buy at least one extra. A single battery may not get the job done for you depending on how big of a clean up job you have.

5.0 out of 5 stars 69 Yrs Young grandma and I can use it!
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 13, 2021
Style: 14-Amp 22-InchVerified Purchase
I bought this snow blower this year as the snow was too much for me to even get to my car. I used a snow shovel (that I also had to buy at the same time) to clear the immediate area in front of my door, so that I could get the machine in an area to start clearing. It is an electric machine because I can never start a PULL START machine. I was able to assemble the machine without difficulty and only took less than an hour. Mind you I am a female and age 69. I highly recommend this machine. I only needed to use it three times this year but I was EXTREMELY HAPPY with the ability to be able to use it and clear my walkway and driveway.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great machine for price and size
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 16, 2021
Style: 40 volt 4Ah 22-InchVerified Purchase
This little machine tackles the wet heavy Michigan snow quite well. When it is too deep the battery dies quicker but it is still a great machine for the price. It is not heavy to maneuver or for lifting to put in shed. I am disabled senior and able to handle. Take your time pushing through and do a couple levels in deeper snow. Turn off an check for snow around blades or built up in the chute. I would recommend keeping a second battery charged if you have a large area to clear.
