2 years ago I bought a toro 60 volt single stage snow blower and couldn't be happier with it !! I have a 4 car driveway and side walk to do and I can do this twice with 1 -2 inches of snow. Just don't leave the battery in the cold as it reduces work time.
Shakespeare Sportcast direct drive model EH on a Utica Tournament Taper fibreglass rod made by Horrocks-Ibottson of Utica NY. bought it in 1961 in St John N.B. I still have and use it occasionally.

I bought a Broil King 15 years ago and last year without any problem I bought burners and side plates and had them shipped from broil king to my door in 3 days !!! You have to love Quality products and parts. My Bbq is under a steel awning on my deck and I use it 4x a week year round..
