Very heavy but the track steering makes controlling this little tank a breeze. Makes short work of clearing snow and so much fun. I’d used a smaller, lighter Troy earlier and was sold on the quality, but never liked wheeled blowers. Too hard to wrestle around. Get the tank. Have fun out there. Tools should make work easier and more enjoyable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this last month because my husband wanted it before we started getting storms here in Fargo, North Dakota. He was able to use it yesterday and will have to use it again today. He has severe shoulder problems, so can not help me shovel snow. I am 51 and he is 61. We have 3 neighbor friends who are also 50’s to 70’s with medical problems. We live in a mobile home park and the road was plowed yesterday in a lull in the snow storm. My husband easily cleared the snow bank in front of our parking lot and then cleared our lot around our cars. He then continued to do the same for our 3 neighbors. After putting the snow blower back in the shed, and easily cleaning it up, he came back into the house and couldn’t stop praising his new “play toy”. This is the first winter, in the 20 1/2 years of our marriage, that he has not complained constantly about the snow.

Works Very Well on Gravel Driveway (with Troy Bilt Storm Tracker 2890 2-stage snow thrower D-Track drive Snowblower ). Used twice and its great. Highly Recommend adding Armorskids PRO-XT 5.75″ Slot Spacing (set of 2 skids) PROXT3575B / Item# PRO-XT3575-B. Amazing Upgrade that will improve performance!
by John
Bought this unit because my other one was rolling down the drive way unless I used it in reverse ( very steep). Used this one on the past snow event 11/2018 this is GREAT!!!!! Would have given 5 stars, however, the light stinks at 3:30 am but it was bery easy to use and wife can handle it.

Works well on a sloped driveway. Has enough power to throw snow far. An upgrade from a wheeled snow blower.
by Derek
The first time startup was very easy. A dependable machine.
by Donald
Good machine, starts and moves easy as far as throwing snow, I haven’t used it yet because since I bought it it really hasn’t snowed so I give it two thumbs up and hope it keeps up the good work
by Harry

by Robert
Works great does a very good job at moving up the hill hand warmers are decent.
by Jerry
Very nice, powerful, easy to operate and very robust. We have a steep, slick stamped concrete driveway and the tracks climb it nicely. Having been a small engine mechanic in collage, I say with confidence the MTD engine is very good and a full shop manual is available on-line and it is the best shop manual I have ever seen. The only thing I don’t like about the engine is that, if any component in the block wears out/fails including the piston rings, you have to buy a complete short block; same is true for the cylinder head; hence 4 stars instead of 5. I expect this snow blower to last my lifetime.
