    I've been in the snow removal business for 30 years, and I think Toro is really on to something there, with this multiattatcment machine, it's so versatile, and the maneuverability of the plow attachment combined with the hydraulic controls is absolutely awesome, great video Stan!!

    I've never ran one but from this video is looks like the Ultimate machine for residential properties. The only issues I'd see is pissing everyone off at 3am for how loud it is and you'll have some frozen operators at the end of the night. Otherwise that machine out performed my expectations

      If they are also shoveling those entrance walks and a little smaller driveways. It might be about the right balance. We picked up a Snowrator this year and are trying to figure out it’s strengths. Maybe the Toro is a good step 1: shovel walks and fist “plow” pass out and away from the garages along with faster transportation between units.

    Hey Stan! Great video. I’m glad you did a video on the Multiforce. I have one and this winter is my first winter on it. It took about 2-3 snow events to get used to the controls, but once i had it done oh boy was I going fast. I ended up putting tire chains over the snow tires and wheel weights to give it more traction. Because I live in northwestern ontario up in Canada (about 4 hours from Duluth btw), we get a ton of snow up here (like 4-5 feet each winter). And the chains helped a lot, but in my opinion for most guys who are going to be using it in the states the traction will be just fine for the amount of snow they got.
    I decided to go with the Multiforce instead of a plow on my truck because I didnt want to deal with the extra maintenance and insurance costs of plow trucks. Overall, I am very pleased with my unit, and I recommend them to anyone who is on the fence. I had my doubts when I bought it but I wasn’t disappointed!!!

    I'm in Richfield and using this setup for the first winter. I love this machine. I do a couple churches with lots of sidewalks. I use it to cut curbs and light poles. Then we do the neighborhood accounts wit it. It scrapes better than my back drag. One draw back so far is the sidewalks are built up now and I can't get over the top. So they are getting skinnier. The cold is the other. But I went from needing 3 people to do the walks to just one. I believe someone could start a business with this machine. We fight over it

    Lived in northern Michigan snow belt my whole life, have had years with 350” total. I know my way around a snow shovel (don’t know if that’s a good thing). Best snow shovel i have is “the snowplow, original snow pusher” shovel. Comes in 24”,36”, and 48”. If your only getting 2” maybe 3” I use the 48”, i can make quick work of my driveway with it. Once the lake snow really kicks in I switch to the blower and if I need a shovel at that point I use an old coal shovel.
    The snowpusher shovels are great for cleaning off the ice rink too. Above all they are made in the USA.

Has great manuverability in tight spaces has cut are commercial sidewalk and residential snow crews day by 2-3 hours and after a 10-11 hour day they are happy to avoid the last 3! We did have to go to the 4' snow plow to fit on residential side walks and one down side is they need to make a quick coupler for the lower hydrologic connection you loss half the hydrologic oil in the change over from mower to plow this may have changed on the 2021-22 model year. We also are going to look into if they have a front weight kit are PA sleet and ice storms have proven twice now to lift the plow up instead of cutting through thank you for your review it's nice to see someone else give thoughts and opinions on the multi force

Toro ships him free equipment on a regular basis whereas the rest of us would be buying that same machine not to mention that when he does his videos he fails to toss in fact that the equipment is sponsoring his videos. Little loophole he's been failing to acknowledge in his videos but he often times admits that toro has given him machinery like his toro 6000, it was a $14,000.00 just outright given to him but he did not disclose it on his utube channel... so when u see him running that equipment some of ut has been given to him - ask urself if he would be in the same position with equipment If he had to buy all that equipment - probably not...

    With that amount of snow it looks like the back dragging only works for a short distance before too much gets pulled up behind the blade. But with these units you almost have to and can change your approach to clearing a residential driveway. Just back drag enough to get this smaller unit turned around to plow the snow forward away from the garage. Or turn 90 degrees and plow towards the sides of the driveway. You can't do that last one with even a small truck. Just wish the price wasn't through the roof.

    Looks like a decent snow mover. I can see some very cold operators who are grumpy as hell, within a few hours of use. Definitely best as a residential unit.

    I enjoyed watching you i just got a fourwheeler and i welded and bilt a snow blade for it have never owed snow with a four wheeler excited for it to snow so i can plow my drive way and tey it i think it will be fun beings though i love to ride my fourwheeler im retired and have lots of time to plow ride and enjoy my fourwheeler thanks for the channel fun to watch you

  • @jaywheeler8207

    Thanks for taking the time to film this review! It definitely did much better than I expected! One thing I noticed the blade appeared to have some down force while you were back blading does it push down? Another surprise was the amazing traction it had. If you mentioned it I didn’t hear, what size and brand of engine does it have and do they offer engine options? I believe this would be very cost efficient to anyone who has Condominium contacts and HOA’s or 10 or 15 or more back to back driveways no insurance no registration much less fuel expense than any truck available! Yes I enjoy the comfort of a warm truck and soft seat too, but I enjoy spending less money to do the same job which in turn would make me more money just have to layer up with too pair of long john’s a snow suit a good thermal hat and good pair of snow gloves and I think the extra money earned is worth the discomfort. As for wet and heavier snow as long as the engine has the power to push snow chains ⛓ will keep you going. I’m very interested to see how it does for you, I will definitely be watching out for your next video putting this Toro to the test! Thank you again Mr. Snow Monkey 🙈🙉🙊 have fun stay safe!

      They do have down pressure. It will lift the front wheels off the ground. Some people use this to transfer more weight to the back giving you more traction.

    Interesting competition, 8’ blade verses 5’ blade. Yet it still kept up. Nice machine for sidewalks, driveways, and tight areas.
    Would be interesting to see this thing on that apartment complex you service and there are a lot of things to get around.

    Stan the only snow shovel I like is the one someone else is using .I like heat that’s why I bought my Bobcat S70 last year I loved cab run a 36” bucket for sidewalks and a 60” for open areas. Toro a nice machine though 👍

    Stan reviewed a home built version of mower last winter. It was a Outlaw mower with a Boss XT plow that was built really well. Looks like this company "borrowed" his idea and made a smaller, less robust model. Smaller but still pretty capable, impressive 👍

  • @rydplrs71
    @rydplrs71 2 года назад +1

    If I have to manually clear a driveway with New England snow I would have a snow scoop. Grain shovels are good for deep snow on walkways or just banks, a pusher shovel is good for small storms.
    I have a plow on my truck for customer driveways, I use a tractor snowblower on mine and my neighbors. I had a tractor plow, it was by far the most fun and quick, but I ran out of room after a couple big storms and bought the blower. Now I only use it early season then after mounting the blower it stays until spring. I have the plow as backup, and now also have a broom. I only used the broom on snow once just to see, I’ve used my backpack blower 3 times for light small storms. The broom is for removing sand from lawns in the spring.

    Each of those led light pods cost $150 lol. We got one of these this year (sans lights) and it's been awesome for sidewalks, and just framing out tight areas.

  • @StinkyPete69
    @StinkyPete69 2 года назад +4

    Depends on what I'm shoveling, the pusher flat blades work nice for powder, but for somewhat packed or ice layer snow the worn out cheap shovels work good especially when they wear in a point it gets under the ice and breaks it out

    • @Dirtmonkey
      @Dirtmonkey  2 года назад +1

      Feel that, it definitely depends on what you're working with

  • @michaellanglie5502
    @michaellanglie5502 2 года назад +1

    I use a lighter duty shovel similar to the man plow, but made of plastic, fits my sidewalk width perfectly. Anything more than an 1" I breakout the Toro 1028OXE, because I love to send the snow across the street.

    They look good for light work and sidewalks. Due to it's light weight it may not do well in deep snow. Also all night standing and no heat in below zero weather. I would not want to be the operator.

  • @ericcrockett479
    @ericcrockett479 2 года назад +4

    That is definitely a all year machine, I'm impressed with how well it did. I was expecting it to work fine in a couple inches of snow but really struggle in the snow you were using it in. In a tight subdivision like that it seems to me like it would work well working it with the pickup where you clean the driveways with the Toro and push the snow into the street then use the pickup to pile it up. Plus the snow broom would be great for sidewalks

  • @todddunican1476
    @todddunican1476 2 года назад +1
