October New England Snowstorm
I received and assembled my Ariens Snowblower the day before a massive October New England snowstorm hit. The machine delivered was well packed and easy to assemble. The instructions were in clear English so it took about 1 hour to uncrate and have fully assembled, checked oil, added some gas and ready to go. I live in Massachusetts and am very accustomed to large snowstorms, but not in October. The snow was 15 inches in depth and very heavy and wet. The Ariens started up on the first pull. It powered through the heavy wet snow effortlessly. I did break a shear pin when I hit a snow-covered tree limb.

Ariens 624e Shear Bolts
I purchased an Ariens 624e from Snow Blowers Direct in 2008. The website was easy to navigate and find the right snow blower. The delivery was trouble free. After several uses, it took some fine tuning to get the proper height adjustment. The other issue was that Ariens skid plates are metal, which caused some problems on my paved driveway. I replaced the skids with rubber based material. That made a world of difference.
In the most recent, historic snow fall of this year (2011), I tore a shear bolt. I didn't realize that was the issue, but after doing a little internet research on the fact that only one side of my auger was turning, I diagnosed the shear bolt issue. I then ordered the replacement part and watched a DIY video on replacement. I received the part in a few days and replaced the bolt trouble free. Back to snow blowing!

Great supplier, good snowblower
Company shipped everything ahead of schedule which was impressive. The snowblower itself is wonderful. It was easy to assemble and use and is a very efficient machine. Easy to start. Easy to maneuver. Easy to maintain. Happy with purchase and would definitely recommend.

Ariens Model 920015
The snow blower was not working property after I assembled it. I called Ariens and the tech told me to take it to the nearest authorized repair shop. It turned out that there was a recall on the snow blower and the local authorized dealer repaired it. It's now working, so far.

I was glad I had this!
I got my machine at the insistence of my wife. I have found it to be a godsend for getting the snow out of the way, and it allows me to even help my neighbors with their snow.
In the Mid-Atlantic we had two back-to-back monsters that set all kinds of records. I was glad I had it.
As for as the shear bolts that I ordered after I broke the second one, I realized that the special shear bolt is absolutely essential for these machines.
If you have shear bolts on your machine order lots of extras, and never use anything else as a replacement. If you try using something else you will do so at your peril.

Affordable snowblower
Well, I live on a hill which is impossible to drive when covered with snow. Since here in Fairview, NC it does not snow very often, and not a lot, I did not need anything sophisticated orvery powerful, but something affordable and good.
The Ariens 920006 has done a very good job. With lots of branches falling from the trees, and not being able to see them, the shear bolt broke 5 times. Hey, snowblowers are designed to blow snow and not tree branches.
But that's what shear bolts are designed for: to save the gears and belts from breaking. All you have to do is replace them- a 1 minute job with the proper tools, if that long.
I am satisfied and would recommend it if you do not have a lot a snow to blow and want an affordable snowblower.
As far as blowing lots and lots of snow I cannot tell because all I have here in 12" to 14" of snow when it snows....

This is my first snowblower purchase, and I'm totally happy with the operation of this snowblower.
Awesome performance during our recent blizzard of about 22" of drifting snow. Worked beautifully and even tackled the icy pile of snow at the front of the driveway caused by the city plows.
Only recommendation would be for optional snow chains (have to contact Ariens directly for that). SnowBlowers Direct delivered on time and at a great price.
Just ordered my Zero Turn mower from their MowersDirect.com site.
