- Battery powered and a Beast. Not too often I get excited about a Snow Blower. But when it comes to the Toro Power Clear 21 in. 60-Volt Commercial Brushless Single-Stage Self-Propelled Cordless Electric Snow Blower I was blown away.

Thanks for tuning in! I specialize in solving lawn problems and implementing strategies to fix lawn problems. Weather you have crabgrass that's not dying, too much thatch, lawn fungus, over watering problems or an ugly lawn there's not a lawn problem I can't solve. Try the Ginja 5 Steps to diagnosing a lawn you'll be glad you did. Don't forget to checkout my playlist.
Ginji, you gotta put your snowblower away with an empty carburetor, before you store it, just the fuel valve off and let it run until it does.
The worst thing for small engines is a gummed up carb, which tends to happen with E10 gas. And try and syphon as much of the fuel out of the tank as you can, and top it up with fresh gas when you go to use it in the winter. You'll never have an issue starting it when you need it if you go this route.
It’s true
Great advice!
Happy to see you again mister Ginja
Thanks brother 👊🏻
Nice to see you again, Buddy and great video as usual...Hope you feel better too!...sound like you are battling a cold...Spring is here soon..look forward to seeing you more often...Paul
Thanks!!! Lost my voice. Back in business now
I’ve had my Battery/ Toro for a couple years here in Wisconsin. (mine only has 1 battery) It will do about 35 minutes with eco mode off,clearing moderate snow.
I Love it and like how quiet is.
If the snow is too heavy, it would be nice to have a power drive.
Great feedback! Thanks for sharing
I have a Battery operated lawn mower and love it...I actually never have owned a gas snowblower for the reasons you gave... I am getting older and the wetter snow is a back breaker ...thanks for the genuine review....love all your tipps and content.
Glad to help! The battery snowblower is a game changer
Toro makes great machines. My Father's 24yr old Suzuki powered CCR 3000 still starts on the first pull. My 19yr old R-Tek powered CCR 3650 does too. In the summer I cut with a 32yr old Suzuki 2-cycle powered Toro Recycler. That mower starts from cold with a half pull of the rope.
Rad! Love the feedback
Ginja’s beard deserves its own channel. Between Pest & Lawn Ginja & Ginja’s Beard channels, the new channel might get the Silver and Gold RUclips Play Button plaque faster 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's why I bought my ego mower because of all the problems with gas even tho it's used more than snow blowers it's a lot fewer headaches!!! I'm definitely looking into a snowblower, and it will be Toro. I just need to save for it! Thanks for the review.
Great point! Thanks for watching
That thing is well built! Seemed to handle that heavy snow with relative ease
I’m pretty impressed. Never thought I’d be excited about a snowblower hahaha
i have the EGO 56v single stage and it cost about half of the Toro...it also has a left/right handle to direct the chute....i use it for my deck for the dogs and it handles everything and have done my driveway when I am too lazy to pull out the big boy gas Ariens
Love the feedback. Thanks for sharing
Love my EGO, disappointed Toro removed the chute control but they still make a great machine to keep EGO honest
Some Toro's earlier corded powercurve models actually had a crank handle for the side-to-side motion of the discharge chute like like you would find on older gas snow blowers. Those machines didn't even have headlights.
Very nice machine ! Good to see ya G
Thanks! You too!
winters nearly over and we got like 2 dustings and maybe like 3 inches of snow that melted overnight here in southeastern new york. its really not winter without snow, i dont care if i have to shovel!
That’s how we were the last 4 seasons. This year we got dumped on
I was really all set to purchase this Toro snowblower but I can't get over it not have the crank handle. What I would gain in convenience of it being electric, I would lose in constantly having to lean over this machine to adjust the chute. It's so glaringly missing. Come on Toro!
There’s a little fomo for sure. Just keep in mind they do sell another model with the crank handle but it’s not compact like this one
If you do not have the battery setup, you may want to try the corded plug-in version....I have the snow-joe version and think about it like a toaster or a fan (plug it in and use it)...... At only 35lbs, it sits on the shelf until I need it.... Our electric is underground and snow is infrequent in NC.....
Great idea!
Throwing snow into the street is illegal in some states. Did anyone else cringe while watching?
Interesting perspective
Utah license plates. I work for a city in utah. I guarantee his town could cite him for that.
Ok Karen we will sure not to move in near you…
That scraper bar is a floating design and it will last much more than 20 uses in the Power Clear
thanks for the feedback.
Cool!!!
Thanks!
First Aussie 😁
My dude!
Like all aussies need a snowblower 😂😅
I need a snow maker 😳😬🤣
I am very happy with my EGO yard tools and it would only make sense to stick with that battery platform. For how much that cost it's more than some EGO single stage snow blowers. Everything gets real pricey when it's commercial grade.
Gotta pick your team! Wish the batteries were more universal
@@pestandlawnginja And cheaper!
That's a really expensive battery powered single stage snow thrower! Kobalt 80 volt cost me $650 and it has a control knob that i don't have to bend over to turn...
It’s not cheap!
Pet&lawn Ginja I have a Toro single stage snow blower
They build good units
I realize this is not self propelled, but to what extent does the rotor pull the blower forward?
It's good 👍. Doesn't disappoint
In some days we will be there! Hahahah
Awesome!!!
A Paved/Concrete Driveway is one thing we all don't have...
What do you recommend for a Gravel Driveway?
Not sure about this particular snowblower, but most 2-stage snowblowers have "shoes" or pads at the bottom to allow the snowblower to glide along the surface.
For a gravel driveway, the instructions for my Snow Tek 2-stage blower recommend to adjust the shoes so the front is 1/4" off the ground to be able to remove the snow without taking in any gravel stones.
I believe most 2-stage snowblowers work like that, where you can adjust the height of the front of the blower to accommodate a gravel driveway.
Two stage blowers. But they’re soo expensive
Can do my 0.22 acres of area i have to do ?
After a recharge. It’ll easily do 2000 sqft. You probably have between 3000 sqft and 4000 sqft of area on .22 of surface area
Muita neve !!!
Mulita. Era pra pegar mais mas a primavera tá querendo se despedir do inverno
Bastante!
thats the problem i see with these battery driven tools they are just so expensive ... 1200 for a single stage snow blower is ridiculous .... imo
It’s not cheap
@@pestandlawnginja niether are electric cars , if they don't find a way to bring the price down to what people are use to paying then the electric wave of thinking wont happen , especially when you dont have that long of run times between charging ... just my opinion .....
@@daryldettmer9160 it’s a good perspective. The batteries are not cheap to make.
Então essa máquina ajuda remover com rapidez e eficácia?
Sim 🙌🏻
I don’t think you understand bias lol. You don’t get to say “I’m not biased.”
Personally, I’ve never had any “tune ups” to do, just basic stuff that takes 10 minutes. And my blower always starts when I need it to. I also go around my neighborhood and help out the people that bought battery blowers that shut down when faced with real Canadian snow.
a big draw back to battery power is forgetting to charge the batteries. no doubt about it. these machines aren't made to go longer than what they're capable. there are advantages to having gas powered devices as there are major disadvantages to having battery powered devices.
$1200 2nd gen machine and toro removes the chute control? I was hoping to see them make it more accessible wtf toro.
I prefer the compact design. I do agree though. It seems over priced
@@pestandlawnginjaMy comment still stands for that machine BUT I did look into the Toro and WOW they actually have upgraded single stage machines that look like they are 2 stage machines. They are VERY impressive.
@@beezer5623 they've got some fun toys. i've used that machine you're referring to and its fantastic.
Nice, are you gonna post a review of that one? Are you still getting snow? Our winter is over basically, sucks. Lol
Don't buy this. The plow guy came once last year and charged me $425 for the season. So I bought one of these and a third battery. I have run it three times including yesterday. It was thirty yesterday, so not cold not hot. Fortunately I have a hose bibb in the garage and hot water as this thing bogs down if the snow is wet. Chute gets clogged quickly and has to be cleaned out. Have not had a storm to date where this machine didn't clog up multiple times.
May be beneficial to spray it with a lubricant. Doesn't matter the single stage machine with the condition you're describing
If you have 10” of snow, an electric snowblower won’t be much help. This is a dishonest presentation. Trust me.
So by demonstrating the machine and as it's actually doing it is a bad representation? Tell me more
Nnnnope.
yyyyyyyyup!!!!!!!!!!
Let's be honest. This is not the snowblower for most people. It looks extremely cheaply made.. It's small. And it's expensive. You didn't really have a lot of snow, and there was no ice or hard packed stuff at the end of a driveway. Also your driveway is nice flat concrete. I think that in most use cases a two stage snowblower is way better and they have ones now that operate like a car and don't have a carb which solves the carb problem. Oil extractors make oil changes a breeze. And the time you save is worth its weight in gold. Nobody is going to sit outside with this tiny snow blower.. I understand this is a paid review and you have to pretend to like it, but these corporations are out of touch with reality and are pushing plastic junk for profits.. the average consumer doesn't know any better. Have a blizzard and lose power and you're sol.
How so?
@@pestandlawnginja I edited my response above. Also they have ariens snotek blowers that regularly sell for 700 bucks. So you could literally save 500 dollars and have a more powerful and capable machine. I think this is marketed towards people who don't really get a lot of snow and maybe businesses that clean side walks. I just don't see homeowners buying this. I live in New York and I can't imagine waking up and using this to clean snow before I go to work.
@@pestandlawnginja also my comments do not reflect the quality of your channel. I'm a long time subscriber and appreciate your content.
Thanks for clarifying. RUclips’s guidelines require us to say it was “promoted” when we received an item or are paid to sponsor a product. Toro doesn’t pay. Nor do they require me to sign a contract. Nobody was paid to say anything. Go watch the ego vs toro vídeo.
With that said. There was not ice chunks but there was over an inch of slush. And I ended up going through secondary pushed snow and sand from the city snow pushers. You are correct that single stage pushers like this one are not meant for gravel or surfaces that aren’t flat.
As for quality… this is not an aluminum base as for what they use in there upper models. But it doesn’t feel cheap.
Overall glad you’re speaking your mind. I don’t like the “product pusher” mentality. I like raw feedback so we can make better videos. Have a great night
I could see at 0:41 that you are linked to Toro 😂. As always no body does reviews like the Ginja 👍💚🦸
Right?!😂😂😂
