Tools and Hardware Reviews of Toro 1800 18-Inch 12 Amp Electric Curve Snow Thrower #38025

Customer Review: Toro 1800 in Idaho 2008-2009 winter
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this snow thrower based on positive reviews from other purchasers here at Amazon. I could have bought it locally for $318 including sales tax, but through Amazon it cost $270 total. I'm tired of finicky gas engines which do not want to start in the winter, so I thought I'd face the sneers of my peers and went electric. Turns out one of them has a peewee electric smaller than this one. It takes some practice (as other users mentioned) to use this thrower. You have to treat it like you would a vacuum cleaner in your forward and back movements, minding the cord. I use a 3 conductor 12 gauge cord which is stiff and heavy, but causes no voltage drop to the motor. Most of my blowing is within the range of a 50' cord (driveway, front walk and part of sidewalk). Finishing the walk requires adding another 50' cord, but again with no observable reduction in machine performance.

It blows 6" of snow with ease and will blow up to a foot but you have to go slow then. The tough stuff is the windrow the city plow pushes up in front of the mail box and drive way. It is very dense, heavy and contains gravel. I found I could blow that too, although I had to take small passes and not push the Toro too hard. No small blower on the block can handle that stuff any better, it takes a big high horsepower self-propelled 2-stage blower to cut through that well, but mine worked OK. I just hope I didn't harm it too much.

The cord does tend to come unplugged, but I loop it around the handle to help reduce that problem. I used the blower for 9 full plow jobs this past winter so I'm averaging $30 per use so far. The blowing goes faster when your spouse helps manage the cord. My snow removal area is: driveway 20'x27' (540 sq. ft.), front door walk 7'x22' (154 sq. ft.) and sidewalk 4'x85' (340 sq. ft.) for a total of 1,034 sq. ft. Blow time is 15 minutes for a 1-2" snow, up to a half hour for a 4-6" snow and up to a full hour for any city plow windrow. Sorry for all the detail, can't help it, I'm an engineer.

I like my Toro 1800 and am very satisfied with my purchase. I hope it will last for several winters now. I'm 63 and hand shoveled my driveway for 34 years before deciding maybe I ought to take it a little easier.

Fast, Effective Snow Removal with the Power Curve System
Toro's patented Power Curve System employs a unique, curved rotor and a funnel-shaped housing, in addition to wide rubber paddles that propel the machine forward and clean all the way down to the pavement. This technology lets you move more snow in less time, and it virtually eliminates clogging, so you can be confident that your snow thrower will be ready the next time a winter storm comes your way.

With a snow removal capacity of 700 pounds per minute, the Power Curve lets you clear four inches of snow off a 50-by-20-foot driveway in just 10 minutes. The machine's clearing width of 18 inches means that you can clear most walkways with just one or two quick passes. And with a snow cut depth of 10 inches per pass, you won't need to repeat work you've already done, unless you're in the middle of a serious blizzard.

Compact and Easy to Maintain with Electric Power
With no gas or oil to burn through, no spark plugs to change, and no time-consuming tune-ups, this electric snow thrower is a cost-effective, eco-friendly option. Its compact size makes it easier to maneuver than big, gas-powered units, and it's easier to store, too. This makes an electric unit like the Toro 1800 ideal for small spaces like porches, decks, and patios.

When you do want to clear a large area, you'll appreciate the surprisingly powerful nature of this lightweight unit. It features a reliable, series-wound 12 Amp motor, which is designed to produce high torque and operate at relatively low speeds, making it a perfect choice for snow-throwing.

The cord lock system eliminates one of the potential downfalls of using electric products by ensuring your extension cord is reliably locked in place. And with electric power, this snow thrower is easy to start up. Even on the coldest days, it's as simple as squeezing the trigger on the control bar and releasing it when you want to stop. There's no priming or frustrating cord pulling.

Convenient, Ergonomic Features for a Long Life
The trigger is conveniently placed on an ergonomically designed handle for comfort and ease of use, while a key lock means you never have to worry about unauthorized use.

Additionally, a remote crank chute and deflector give you full 180-degree adjustability, so it's easy to throw snow anywhere you want. And a specially-designed lift handle on the top of this 24-pound unit takes the awkwardness out of moving your snow thrower from your garage to your porch or tucking it in your vehicle.

This snow thrower is backed by a full two-year warranty.
