I got to use my Ego snow blower again today, only the third time since purchasing it. It worked much better today, I think it works better with added volume of snow, the first snow event had a shallow amount of snow on the ground. It seems to work better with more snow , I also lubed the chute as Rob recommended. . I still never get 35 feet of throw from it as it proudly advertises, maybe 10-15 max. good enough.

I agree that when there is more snow it works better then the light fluffy stuff.

My landscaper removes any snow over 3 inches. Getting too old to shovel that crap.

Expecting temps in the low 70s today. Sea fog this morning is heavy and like looking at a gray wall.
