Remove large amounts of snow in no time. View larger. | 
The lift handle makes it easy to move. | Fast, Effective Snow Removal with the Power Curve System
Toro's patented Power Curve System employs a unique, curved rotor and a funnel-shaped housing, in addition to wide rubber paddles that propel the machine forward and clean all the way down to the pavement. This technology lets you move more snow in less time, and it virtually eliminates clogging, so you can be confident that your snow thrower will be ready the next time a winter storm comes your way. With a snow removal capacity of 700 pounds per minute, the Power Curve lets you clear four inches of snow off a 50-by-20-foot driveway in just 10 minutes. The machine's clearing width of 18 inches means that you can clear most walkways with just one or two quick passes. And with a snow cut depth of 10 inches per pass, you won't need to repeat work you've already done, unless you're in the middle of a serious blizzard. Compact and Easy to Maintain with Electric Power
With no gas or oil to burn through, no spark plugs to change, and no time-consuming tune-ups, this electric snow thrower is a cost-effective, eco-friendly option. Its compact size makes it easier to maneuver than big, gas-powered units, and it's easier to store, too. This makes an electric unit like the Toro 1800 ideal for small spaces like porches, decks, and patios. When you do want to clear a large area, you'll appreciate the surprisingly powerful nature of this lightweight unit. It features a reliable, series-wound 12 Amp motor, which is designed to produce high torque and operate at relatively low speeds, making it a perfect choice for snow-throwing. The cord lock system eliminates one of the potential downfalls of using electric products by ensuring your extension cord is reliably locked in place. And with electric power, this snow thrower is easy to start up. Even on the coldest days, it's as simple as squeezing the trigger on the control bar and releasing it when you want to stop. There's no priming or frustrating cord pulling. Convenient, Ergonomic Features for a Long Life
The trigger is conveniently placed on an ergonomically designed handle for comfort and ease of use, while a key lock means you never have to worry about unauthorized use. Additionally, a remote crank chute and deflector give you full 180-degree adjustability, so it's easy to throw snow anywhere you want. And a specially-designed lift handle on the top of this 24-pound unit takes the awkwardness out of moving your snow thrower from your garage to your porch or tucking it in your vehicle. This snow thrower is backed by a full two-year warranty. What's in the Box

Small but powerful March 13, 2010
L. Dizon (Champaign, IL)
First, I was pleased with the speedy delivery. Came in good shape and I got it set-up in 15 minutes! I was able to clear my driveway and side walk in half the time. It can clear up to 10 inches of dry snow, when wet, probably around 6 inches.
In general, it was a great buy. My very first snow thrower, lovin it!!!

Ronnie P. Dinatale (Rochester, NY)
Delivery was quicker than expected.
Product performed as stated. However advertisement claimed to throw snow 30' in my case It only threw snow about 20' which really wasn't a problem.
Light weight but had no problem with snow up to 15". Snow drifts up to 2 1/2 feet were tackled by undercutting the drift and letting the snow fall in the clesned area.
I did have a problem with snow piled at the end of the driveway by the street plow. I had to physically pickup the snowblower and place it on top of the pile ( like I said the machine is light.)
If you have snow deeper than 15" I would not recommend this machine.
Very worthwhile purchase March 7, 2010

Although we purchased this item slightly used, it works like new. It has been a tremendous help. Unlike the larger self-propelled gas snow throwers, this electric snow thrower must be pushed through the snow. With effort and practice, you'll be clearing snow as well as the larger units. We also purchased a 100 foot indoor/outdoor extension cord and a GFI outlet. It's easy to manage the cord outdoors, but a reel would be helpful for storing the long extension cord. The on/off switch on the handle is simple to use. When moving the machine backwards, you must hold the right or left side in order not to run the machine. It is so light and compact that it can be stored indoors. Because it is smaller capacity, it must be used cautiously so as not to break the drive belt. If you listen to the motor, you can tell immediately when you are attempting to clear too much snow at once. Just as clearing half-paths works with the larger snow throwers, it also works with this unit. As other reviews indicate, if you want to clear EOD snow, it works best to chop it first with a shovel, then clear a reasonable amount at a time. When the snow was more than a foot, I lifted the machine to skim off the top layer first, then cleared lower layers. While it has limited ability with slushy snow, it will throw the snow aside. Even without WD-40, the slushy snow clogged the chute only once and I used an ordinary wooden spoon handle to clear it. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another one of these. This model is a wonderful time saver and easy to use. A great product!
Works like a champ March 5, 2010

I bought this unit before the big snow in February 2010.
I highly recommand it.
TORO WOW March 4, 2010
Roger R. Miller
Right out of the box in 15 minutes I was blowing snow. 100 foot drive and parking area. What took 4 hours to shovel was clear to the asphalt in less than a hour. Had a amaller model previously but this one sure moves the snow 30+ feet with ease. even heavy wet snow with ice and sleet thrown in. Great electric model snow thrower and its almost maintenance free.
