After one of the driest fall seasons the majority of the country has ever seen, weather experts predict that the winter is going to be a wetter one for nothern states. And anyone who has shoveled snow knows that wet snow is heavy snow, with the potential to make the job more back-breaking.
Last season was my first winter in my new home in the suburbs of New York and, remarkably, the first time in about 12 years that I had to break out a shovel. (One perk of being a tenant in an apartment!) It’s safe to say that I forgot what it takes to deal with a snow dump when I only stocked a single shovel in my garage—not even a pair to allow me to share the work with a buddy. Luckily, I’ve been impressed by the ongoing sales: Black Friday snow blower deals go up to 45 percent off. See my favorite deal on an editor-tested Greenworks model, plus several other deals that caught my eye.
Worx 40V 20″ Cordless Snow Blower Power Share with Brushless Motor at Amazon for $314.99 (Save $125)
We considered this machine to be a good value at its sticker price when we named it the “Best Bang for the Buck” when we tested the best electric snow blowers. Now it’s nearly a third off and only $15 more than the lowest price we’ve seen it this year—in other words, a steal. According to our product tester in Montana, Zach Lazzari, “[The sleek Worx 40V 20-inch electric snow blower] didn’t scream ‘power,’ but when operating, it moved quickly through snow loads up to 12 inches high. We were impressed with the performance, and it worked well for a large deck, several pathways, and a midsize driveway.”
Greenworks 80V 20” Brushless Cordless Snow Blower for $344.49 (Save $150)
Another standout from our snow blower testing, we consider this Greenworks single-stage snow blower “on par with gas and corded single-stage snow blowers” for power thanks to the impressive 80-volt battery. The run time exceeded our expectations, too: “Though the manufacturer claims 45 minutes of battery life, we ran it for an hour on light snow loads under 6 inches deep,” Lazzari shared. Now on sale, it’s a worthy outdoor tool for clearing snow from driveways and paths this winter—particularly if you’re building a Greenworks tool collection.
