Westinghouse WSnow20 Corded Snow Blower 20 Inch, Steel Auger, Dual LED Lights, 1800 Watt Motor, Electric Snow Blower with 25ft Throwing Distance, Plows 680lbs/min, Adjustable Chute

No problems assembling snow blower. I run it on a large gauge chord so it’s not starved for power. Throws snow far, digs into deep snow without a problem cleans walks and driveways bare. Love this snowblower. I like it better than a gasoline powered snowblower. Headlights are bright and light up well in the dark. I’m 75 years old and I have no problem pushing it into deep snow, so not too heavy. Yes I recommend this snowblower blower and would buy it again. Great value! It is durable.

Bought this cause I didn't want the up front expense, maintenance costs/hassle, and larger storage footprint of a gas or battery electric snowblower when I got this to replace my unreliable gas model. Just got it, set it up pretty quick with zero tools, and took it outside for an overnight 6"ish snow, deeper in some areas for sure. I'm rather impressed. The throw distance wasn't super far, though that's not high priority for me and the snow was very wet and heavy. But it did a great job of sculpting through the snow and thoroughly removing it, and it's much more manueverable that what I had before or expected. I was prepared for the cord to be a bit of a hassle, but I've been using a cord on my leaf blower and I just decided it's worth the other benefits. But this snowblower does a great job of preventing the cord from disconnecting, which was impressive but simple. It's a total non issue. I also found it relatively easy to just sort of use. Almost like a whipping motion to move the cord out of my path as I took long passes. It sounds hard but I found it very easy surprisingly. The cord slides on the residual ice/snow in a way that makes it glide much easier than when I try the same on dry pavement with the leaf blower in the summer. And I have a long driveway and needed a 100' cord, which at 12 gauge (make sure you get the right cord for 15 amps!), in the cold, should have been very stiff but wasn't. I had stored the cord inside until I used it so it was warm and I think I might continue to do that so keep that in mind. These 12 gauge cords especially at 100 ft are really bulky but like I said it went smooth with this. Exactly what I hoped for so far. It's a wisely simple, quality effective product at an appropriately low price considering it's simplicity. Cord was like 50-60 bucks. Need a good spool for storage I think.

I just used my new Westinghouse WSnow22 corded snow blower on our first snow of the season, and here is my review. I will largely compare it to a corded Greenworks snow blower that it is replacing. Assembly Overall, assembly of the snow blower was not difficult, and the instructions were pretty good. Unfortunately, the assembling it requires dealing with three plastic cable clips that are a poor and frustrating design. The clips on my Greenworks snow blower were a design of two C shapes back to back; one clips onto the handle of the snow blower and the other onto the cable. The clips for the Westinghouse are like the outline of an 8, so you have to put the cable into the clip and then put the clip onto the handle. Putting the clip onto the handle required bending the plastic of the clips so much that I was sure they were going to break at any moment. This is a poor design, and I don't see why they don't just skip the clips and include three zipties - it would have been much easier. Snow Blower Features and Use The Westinghouse WSnow22 had no problem with the slightly wet snow that I pushed it through. The snow was around 3" deep, but with drifting, in some spots it may have been 6-8" high. I had a little difficulty pushing it through the deeper areas, but the auger had no problem chewing through it. A few minor things on the Westinghouse could be better. The lights on the Westinghouse are on whenever the snow blower is running, but cannot be turned on otherwise, even if it is plugged in. The Greenworks has a switch for the lights and they can be on even if the auger is not running. This is useful when clearing snow in the dark, especially if you need to look at the condition of the sidewalk in front of the blower with the auger off. The handle of the Greenworks has a foam cushion on it similar to what you would see on a lawnmower. The Westinghouse has no cushion on the handle at all - you are grabbing onto tube steel directly. I did not have a problem with this in my first use of it, but after the second day of using it I could feel a sore spot starting to develop on my hands. I am already considering how I might be able to wrap the handle in something to help with this. The deadman switch on the Greenworks is a bar that extends the full width of the handle, like what you would see on a lawnmower. The deadman switch on the Westinghouse is a handle only on the right side - so you have no choice but to hold it with your right hand only. Did you want to use your right hand to adjust the rotation of the chute while running the snow blower, for example? Well, you can't. The chute angle adjustment on the Westinghouse requires you to stop the snow blower and go to the chute, loosen a knob, adjust the angle, and then tighten the knob again. There is no control from the main handle to adjust this. On the Greenworks, you can adjust the angle by simply squeezing a handle on the back of the chute, which is easier, but unfortunately the Greenworks design cannot withstand the force of the snow being thrown. If you have the angle set lower, the impact of the snow will eventually rattle the chute back up to the highest position. So far, the Westinghouse design is more durable, even if it is less convenient. The chute rotation on the Westinghouse is not as smooth as I would like. It requires a little bit of force to turn the handle to point the chute, and it only seems to move in notches, instead of smoothly. The Greenworks worked the same, from what I remember, but eventually the Greenworks mechanism got stuck in one position (pointed left) and fixing it required disassembling the snow blower. After it got stuck the same way shortly later, I left it that way. So far the chute on the Westinghouse has not gotten stuck and I was able to rotate it back and forth. If you are considering a single-stage, corded electric snow blower that is not self-propelled, this is a good option with no major flaws.

Bought this to replace one we sold on when we went to Mississippi. Upon return back to Indiana found the usual 4+ inches of snow the norm, and as we get older then shoveling just isn't as easy at used to be. Hence, the Westinghouse 20" corded snowblower. Lets get one thing out the way first, corded is not as convenient whilst using as cordless or fuel driven, but it is quieter and easier to get started with, and you don't run out of fuel or power! Having to reposition the cord to avoid it snagging has always been the issue with such devices, but that does not take anything away from the performance, so don't let that put you off, just get the cordless version if you need to. The WSnow20 is very easy to assemble, all of 5 minutes to complete, and no tools or a degree in construction required. It is light enough to lift up if need be, and very easy to maneuver on the surface. My first try with this was with 4" deep wet, heavy show, sitting on a sheet of ice, and it worked perfectly. The ability to adjust the blow chute is an excellent addition and makes it so easy to use without stopping/starting each time. The 3 card-wide driveway and patio were sorted in well less than an hour, something that has taken me 2 or 3 times as long in the past, and without feeling like I've suffered a cardiac issue or my lungs feel like they've filled with ice! To be perfectly candid, it's not so much different from just using an electric lawnmower. I did actually use it on part of the grassed area at the back (we have dogs) and it was simple and effective there too! Overall impression: Excellent snow blower for the price range, has the power and agility to clear the snow without struggling to move or turn and won't leave you needing a 2 hour lie-down afterwards.

NIce product. Easy to use and set up. Started right up. Lightweight. Just switched from gas to this electric snow blower. So far so good. Waiting for a bigger storm to come through!

I ordered this on Monday, excepting a the first snow for the season happening Saturday, It arrived Friday and was super easy to assemble. I have never used a snow blower before, but I selected this unit based on: steel blades, electric, corded ( I have a 100 ft cord and a small driveway, plus I am not paying for batteries that will fail half way through clearing my driveway. I was very impressed with the power of the blower. It literally threw snow 25 ft or more. much easier than shoveling it all. super great for the price. It is very light, which is great. So, in STL, we got 6.5 inching of wet heavy snow. I cleared our two car driveway and the 2-3 foot piles of snow from the Saint Louis County snowplows from our street parking in under an hour. Better than shoveling for sure.

Easy assembly. Have not had to use it yet ( all our snow is gone ). Plugged it in and it started right up and sounds like it will do the job. A snow fall will reveal much. Overall, seems sturdy but light weight ( easy to move around ) and well built. We will see.

I never used a snow blower before today, so I can’t really compare this product to any other blower. All I can tell you is I was pleasantly surprised at how well this performed. I had about 3 to 5 inches of snow. It was wet, heavy kind of snow. I first used my shovel, and after 2 or 3 shovel fulls, I said the heck with that, I’m going to breakout the snow blower. Everything worked perfectly, better than I expected. It went right to the bare ground and blew the snow rather effectively. I did not hear the motor bog down or struggle. It really ate that snow up and sent it away, in the direction and distance of my choice. No problem whatsoever. If I had more time, I would have done my neighbors walkway as well but I had to go to work. I laid down some calcium chloride on the path I cleared and went to work. When I came home, what I cleared earlier remained that way. A job well done. There are two things that I would look for should I ever need to purchase another blower. Cons: None Nice to Have; 1) Self Proprlled- I’m not sure if they make them self propelled, but that would be fantastic. I’m sure that would add to the cost, but it would be well worth it. It wasn’t a big deal or difficult for me to push, but it could be a nice to have feature. 2) Gas vs Electric/Battery The other thing is gas powered. This is electric and the extension cord got snagged a couple of times. Again, not a big deal but I can only go as far as my extension cord allows. Pros: Everything Assembly - Fast and Easy Power - Easily handled 3-5” of wet, heavy snow Cleaning - Gets right down to the cement Blower - Easily change direction and angle of blown snow. Path - It cuts a wide enough path in one pass for people to safely walk. I did 2 passes to clear the entire cement flag Summary: For the money, it’s a well made product that gets the job done and works as advertised. I recommend this item if you’re looking for an electric snowblower that is of good value without sacrificing power or performance. It beats manually shoveling by a long shot in both energy and time.
