In searching snowblower deals, you may find different types that may confuse you. But don’t worry as this guide will help you choose the right one to buy. First, what you need to know is the main types of snowblowers, which are single-stage, two-stage, and three-stage. Each one of them varies in its power source. There are gas snowblowers and corded and cordless electric snowblowers. Keep it all in mind when getting a cheap snowblower, as each one specializes in different purposes.
The next factor to consider is where you will be using it. If you will only use it for a small driveway with light to medium, non-icy snow, a single-stage gas snowblower will suffice. But if you have to use it on a medium-sized driveway with 16-inch thick snow or more, you might need to get a two-stage or a three-stage gas snowblower. You also need to consider the terrain of your area before buying any cheap snowblower. For a smooth, paved driveway, a single-stage snowblower will get the job done. But if you’ll be clearing a sloped, non-paved surface, you’ll have to use a two or three-stage snowblower.
Now let’s go over the differences between all the power sources. Let’s first talk about electric snowblowers — the corded and the cordless. A corded snowblower is lightweight and doesn’t need as much maintenance compared to gas-powered ones. It is ideal to use for light snowfall in smaller areas like porches and pathways. On the other hand, a cordless snowblower offers more maneuverability since it doesn’t need a cord to operate. It uses a brushless motor and a lithium-ion battery with enough juice to power it up. And like the corded ones, a cordless snowblower is more compact and virtually maintenance-free. Finally, gas snowblowers are also easy to maneuver since there’s no need for a power cord to operate it. They usually have larger clearing widths and intake heights compared to electric snowblowers.
