Rated 1 out of 5 by from Have to repair it every time I use it Had a simplicity snowblower for 33 yrs, gave it to my son and it is still going strong. Purchased this cub cadet and the first time I used it reverse quit working and I had to repair it. 2nd use it quit running and would not restart, I pulled the spark plug and the gap was next to nothing so I re gapped it and installed it, started and ran fine. I am afraid of what will happen the next time I use it. Where is the quality control from the factory? should not have to repair on 1st and 2nd use.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great. Starting off. This review is from the heart of the City of Buffalo. 'Nuff said? It took about a half hour to assemble the machine pretty much in the dark. It started on the first pull. However - the auger ran with no apparent way to stop it. Once I looked things over it was obvious that I tangled the auger cable when assembling the machine. It took a minute to fix that and the machine worked great. Did I mention Buffalo?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice machine This replaces my aging 22YO Craftsman 9 Horse. I was told by phone that this snow blower rates between 10-12 horsepower. I can feel the difference. Unfortunately, I've only had to use it once since I picked it up a month ago; but I'm not complaining. The heated hand grips are real nice.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smooth machine! Just from the reviews, I was really worried about the performance of this snowblower. I'm glad I bought this, it's been great. I've put it through a full season and its been awesome! No issues at all, from 12 inches of snow to 1 inch of snow, this performed very well. Wet snow, light snow, it didn't matter it got it done. I usually never leave feedback unless im completely satisfied and confident in the product. Not sure why people are having starting issues? I would recommend this snowblower to anyone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beast of a blower I bought this blower after a different brand failed. This thing is a beast! It will cut through snow easily and reliably and can handle my 4 acre property, driveway, and all surrounding paths. We get around 1-2ft every couole of weeks here in WA. I especially like the bonus features… heated grips, power steering. The engine is also easy to start. No more shoveling!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This puts our previous snowblower to shame. Every time... This puts our previous snowblower to shame. Every time it snows, we are at the end of a cul-de-sac and the road plow deposits all the ice and snow right at the end of our driveway. This ate right through that. I love that it has the 18" height so we can power through most things that are thrown our way.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Only used it once, but it was a wet 8”... Only used it once, but it was a wet 8” snow fall. I have a corner lot and 3 car wide driveway. The Cub Cadet took care of the snow in less than 1/20th of time than I could get done with a shovel

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Worth the extra I upgraded to this from teh 26" machine and it's definitely worth it. More power and heated grips. If you're spending this much money, don't try to get by just to save $100-$200.

est ce que le câble pour démarrage électriques est compris

Merci pour votre question. La fonction pratique de démarrage électrique de cette souffleuse peut être utilisée avec n'importe quelle rallonge de 15 ampères à 125 volts, mise à la terre et conçue pour une utilisation en extérieur (la rallonge n'est pas incluse dans la souffleuse).

The Intellipower dial has three possible settings ("+", "kW", & "-"). There is absolutely nothing in the operator's manuals that describes how to use this feature. Where can I find instructions on this?!?!?

Asked by: FrustratedBuyer
Power settings. Plus it wont bog down.just run it on the plus.

Could this be used on a gravel driveway?

Asked by: Jtlt
The spec sheet says paved or gravel. You should adjust the skid shoes so the unit runs above the gravel surface. I would be cautious if the gravel is not compacted and level.

i have a 2x28 272 2 stage intellipower Cub Cadet snowblower for two months since 1/18/2023. works great. the choke knob came loose and vibrates off I put it back on but vibrates off again. how can I fix this? I don't see indication of a break or crack.

Asked by: Steve
Put a drop of BLUE loctite thread locker. The blue stuff allows it to be removed again. Red loctite is much harder to remove.

Just had this snow blower delivered but did not come with a manual. The links on the product page are broken as well. Can someone link a downloadable manual?
