Haven’t used yet since no snow yet but it did come missing several items. I contacted Toro and they were kind enough to send me the missing items.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s September 1st. Even in Maine I’ve had no opportunity to use a snowblower yet. Ask again in February!

I have a very long horseshoe driveway that is sloghrlt recessed from the rest of my yard, so it traps large amounts of snow, so I decided to that I wanted a larger snow blower. After doing some research, I decided to go with this particular model, and I am.so glad I did! The electric start immediately paid for itself as bleary-eyed 5am me had to do nothing but press a button and unplug my extension cord. Within roughly 2 seconds, the powerful engine roared to life, and upon exiting my garage and starting the augers, we were throwing snow 10-15 yards! This machine is extremely powerful and will eat and eject anything you put in its path. I had some islands of dirt and grass down the center of my unkempt driveway that it decided was an affront to its ancestors and those islands we’re promptly eaten and yeeted 30 feet away, meanwhile, the engine did not care. It just kept humming along as if this was a simple vacation. I have used other snow blowers before, some very high-end, and I can tell you that none of them held a candle to this beast. As large and heavy as it is, the controls are smooth and it responds very well. It’s not all jerky and pulley like others I have used. The heated grips are also a nice touch as well, so you don’t end up with frozen hands while piloting your snow-eating chariot through the early morning darkness. That brings me to my next point, the headlight is actually useful and bright enough that you can actually see what you’re doing! So, even though it was still dark, and cold, and I was angry, tired, and not quite ready to face the day, this monster brought a smile to my face. Yes, it is overpowered. Yes, it’s large. Yes, it’s heavy. But you’d never know it by how easy it is to use. I highly recommend this machine. The price is extremely reasonable for what you’re getting, and there’s just something about throwing mountains of snow 30+ feet into the morning darkness that you just can’t beat!

Looks like a great machine and cannot wait to use when we receive snow fall.

It did everything I asked it to do. Much better than the 2007 Toro i replaced.

This is the BEST snowblower I have ever used. Very well built and lots of power to really throw the snow as far as you need it to. I will definitely buy again!!

Purchased at the end of the season during a sale, and it was delivered to my home. Everything looked great and started on the first pull. I had another Toro Snowblower in the past that never had any issues and I wanted to get this larger heavy-duty model for my large driveway. Will be looking forward to next winter.

I had a Toro 1028 for 17 years that did an excellent job. I retired it and bought the 1030… and it does an even better job, especially in wet snow.

The snowblower was easy to put together and works great. No problem handling even wet slushy snow.

I only got to use my new snowblower once this year but for a wet heavy 13 inch snow storm. The snowblower worked terrific. No lie the snow blew out at least 40 feet. I was amazed just watching it. I would definetly recommend this Toro snow blower to any person that is thinking of buying a new one
