I bought this two and a half years ago (surprise, surprise, only 2 year warranty) and halfway through my last use it just cut off and will no longer start. I siphoned out the gas and replaced it. I used fuel stabilizer. That didn't work. And now I have a $500 piece of junk in my garage. I'm going to see what it's going to cost to repair ON MY OWN DIME. If you plan on using this longer than two years, find another one.

It was fine until the auger stopped working and the warranty is a joke. No one will work on this machine. You call the company and they google locks shops. No repair shops will trust this company to honor the warranty. There might be zero warranty on this machine.I’m also on my second shear pin on the left side.Motor runs great even in polar vortex. The rest of the machine is garbage along with the warranty.

I will start with my only complaint. There is an adjustment bolt that should be on transmission lever hookup that wasn't there. I have an extensive wood shop, but this is a metric bolt with an odd thread count. It took me an hour to find a satisfactory replacement. Other than that, it fit my exact needs, 2 cycle, 200+ cc, large tires, minimum 24". I live in the frozen tundra of central MN, and when my previous blower suddenly died, I needed to fill the need quickly as this winter is shaping up quickly to suck worse than usual. To my dismay, EVERY ONE of my local lawn care suppliers were sold out of all but the Cadillac models starting at $1400. I need this to move snow a couple times a month for an hour, I don't need a coffee warmer and heated seats. I am out there for an hour tops, and this thing chews up snow like Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown. Assembly took around 2 hours, but an hour of that was spent looking for a bolt, and at least 20 minutes was spent finding the next track on Spotify. With a little focus, this thing pops together in about 30 minutes. My favorite feature is the paint. I don't like it for aesthetic reasons, I like it because all the driving while texting drivers in my neighborhood can see me easily in their periphery. Also, its a fairly substantial machine, even if I were to get hit, the snowblower is exacting some form of revenge in body damage to that vehicle.Two year update:First off, YardMax support is legit. I called them about the missing adjuster bolt, and not only did they ship it lighting fast, but they sent me two packages of sheer pins, and, for some odd reason, an orange YardMax kitchen towel.My wife has pleaded with me to toss said towel -- as she puts it, "I will burn that thing if I see it hanging from the oven one more time." So far, she's all talk.Anyway, being Minnesota and all, we got 18 inches of snow in mid October. Welp, I took Whitney out of the garage and she started up on the first pull, once again.Folks, this thing ain't pretty, it's got no fancy doodads, but it is a freaking monster. Up here in southern Canada, reliability is Paramount, and this thing has it in spades.

This works great. It throws better than I expected & is quite solid. I opted for the known engine (lct) over an unknown to me one. I minused one star for the ease of breaking the shear pins, but this isn't a flaw. It threw heavy wet snow fine but clogged quickly however I don't see anything else working any better. I'd definitely recommend this blower. I can load it in my truck without assistance but wouldn't recommend it. Very pleased with price, delivery (no issues at all), & ease of operation. Recommend you have extra shear pins, it comes with two besides the installed ones. Took 30isher minutes to assemble, minimal tools.

The snow blower actually arrived a day early during a snow storm. I must say that I was sure glad to see it.The unit was packed very well on a mini-pallet. Assembly was easy with all parts, including spare shear bolts and touch up paint in a cardboard backed bubble pack. Assembly instructions were easy to follow, and it took less than an hour to complete. The unit ships without oil, so don't forget to add it.I didn't bother with the electric start and It took 2 easy pulls to start it. Had I not over-primed it, I'm sure it would have started on the 1st one.I was able to put it to work right away and it did a really nice job. Simple on-the fly adjustments of the discharge chute put the snow right where I wanted it. I wrapped up a 2-3 hour hand shovel job in about 20 minutes.The fit and finish of all of the parts make this a high quality machine. I spent most of my life in heavy snow country and I've had several snow blowers in the past. This one stacks up favorably to all of them. I highly recommend.

24" model. Just a heads up the 24" model ships by freight. They have to call you to schedule an appointment. If I were to order one again I would call YARDMAX, don't email, and get a waybill number right away. Don't wait.The snow blower itself is excellent. I ended up having to pick mine up from CEVA and unloaded it by pushing it off my truck onto a snow pile. Everything was in good shape in the package and undamaged. It took me about 30 minutes to assemble, the most difficult being the chute flange/ retainers (really not bad). I did it in my driveway. It starts easily. The shifter leaver moves with little effort and all of the gear, positions, work. I use a Toro 724 at work and, to me, the YARDMAX throws snow further as well as cuts through large mounds of snow easier. I would buy this over a 724 even at the same price. Mine didn't come with oil and it needs a little choke on hot restarts.Pros: Light weight, metal chute, set throttle, great gas shut off valve location easy to start, throws snow almost too far, 7hp blower for $500 shipped!Cons: Metal snow blower shoes,
