Snowblower

12 days ago
I bought this in November 2025. Had a belt blow apart CT couldn’t get a replacement belt. Went to 4 other machine places and they couldn’t get the right size that was the Briggs and Stratton belt. Fought with CT to return it.

Just in time for the biggest snow storm.

Fairly easy to put together. Ran beautifully the first time I used it. It has been used for just a couple of snowfalls so far. Let us see how this holds up.

Great machine

a month ago
Great machine! It throws at least 20 feet if not further and starts in -20 without issue or needing a plug-in. It’s a little heavy but self-propelled so not a big issue. Very happy with the purchase.

Had to return the first two, third one worked

a month ago
I bought this snowblower online and picked it up in Bridgewater NS. When i got it home I found the steering mechanism has been pulled from the gear box. I brought it back and got a replacement - that one had a seized chute deflector cable. Canadian Tire came by later that day and gave me another replacement which so far runs fine

Does the job

a month ago
The snowblower works fine, so far, and is pretty much as advertised. The assembly instructions however were very poor and I had to resort to a Youtube video to figure out how to put it together.

Q: Does this come assembled? If not, what needs to be done? or what would be the cost to have it assembled for me? (it is cold outside!)

4 years ago
3 Answers
  • A: No it doesn't come assembled , it took me about an hour to assemble. The handle and all the cables that attach to it require to be installed and the snow chute. You would have to contact your local Canadian tire store to see if they would assemble and what the cost would be.

Q: Im not able to turn the head lamp on wear is the switch located?

2 years ago
2 Answers
  • A: There is NO switch......There is wiring on the side of the snowblower so maybe the wiring has disconnected??? Just follow the wire from the headlamp to the connection and see what you can find......There should be another wire where the 2 just plug into each other
