Sno-Tek Consumer ST26 (26") 208cc Two-Stage Snow Blower (Recoil Start)

You can't beat the price of this thrower... It can toss the wet nasty stuff with ease. It's simple to use and way cheaper then expected for the performance.

The only real difference between this and the 26" Ariens model is the engine and the price. The engine has had many great reviews, and tests have shown it to be a top performer in it's class.

I moved over a foot of saturated and very heavy snow tonight on my 6 car drive way in about 30 minutes. Didn't have a problem at all! (get chains... trust me on that one).

After a major snowfall on Long Island in the beginning of December I knew it was time to junk my old 22" Craftsman snow blower. All stores in my area were sold out. So I decided to order from this site. My new snow blower was shipped the next day and arrived in only 5 business days.

My main concern with this model was the Chinese made LCT engine but after I used it the first time I could tell it was a solid, powerful engine. It always starts on the first or second pull and seems like it has a lot more power than the 6 HP that they advertise.

This machine cut through approximately 2 feet of very hard packed ice and snow at the end of my driveway like it wasn't even there. The tires are massive and have no problem with traction.

Overall I'm very satisfied with my purchase- you can't beat the deals here plus no tax and free shipping.

I just received the snowblower, it arrived very fast and was the best deal I could find for what I needed.

I live in the Northern NY area so Lake Effect snowfalls come quite often. I have used this Snow blower 5 times in the last month and it has performed without a hitch.

Even when the plow beats me to my driveway and puts about 24-plus inches of hard packed snow blocking my way, it cuts right through with ease. The adjustable speeds allow me to zip through effortlessly.

I give it a 5 star rating.

Got this Sno-Tek model this year after much shopping around. I've had Craftsman's, Honda's, Toro's and this one is the best I've owned so far, after 25 years of snowblower ownership.

The motor is an absolute workhorse that I've put to the test with wet heavy snow and it is strong for a 6.5 hp. It works more like an 8 or 9. (Very underrated motor.) I recommend putting chains on it like I've used on all my snowblowers.

I was prepared to buy the Arien's 26" deluxe, no reason to spend the additional money.

Think twice before you buy this brand. I bought this machine new from a big box store. Used it 5 times. It broke twice with the gear problem. Absolutely not reliable. Stay away!

First start of season always difficult. Stay away.
