http://www.wmur.com/article/new-hamp...12225/69603525 ....... the hardware store in Plymouth, Rand's Ace Hdwe has a 30" Ariens efi super-duper MONSTER snowblower for $2199 .... weighs 300-lbs ..... out back the store plus they have a small engine repair service for fixing your 15-year old machine that won't start.
What looks like a relatively low price, good quality snowblower is the $899 gray, black & red 24" Murray Flurry snowblower at Home Depot ......
http://www.murray.com/na/en_us/produ...ow-blower.html ..... weighs 181-lbs ..... big tires, light weight, easy to re-position .... pretty simple .... just the basic items that get it done ..... will it start up and do it ...... yes, it will! ..... I guarantee it! ....... ha-ha-ha ......

?
And, the average NFL football player weighs in at 245-lbs, so how about that ..... !
Murray brand was acquired by Briggs & Stratton in 2005 who also owns Simplicity, so maybe some of the great quality in Simplicity is there in Murray, too. Someone out there, buy a Murray Flurry snowblower and report back, here ..... good if you got long arms and can reach the manual chute top snow deflector
