Love my Snow Joe snowblower!!
Bought this over 5 years ago when all the kids were in college and I wouldn't be able to shove our large driveway. Works great we do the driveway, walkways and since it is light enough we do our deck and patio so the dogs can get out. We use mainly when we get 3" to 9" of snow. If we get more we just need to go out there more often. For the price you can't beat it.

NO REPLACEMENT PARTS AVAILABLE FOR THIS MODEL
I have used this model just 3 times. A pulley has broken and I couldn't get it. Any plastic part of this model can be broken very easy and it is impossible to get it to replace.

Walk behind electric snow blower
I own your snow shovel and have used it for 5 winters and have been very pleased with it for cleaning snow from my 12x20 deck, but I am now a 70 year old woman so I just purchased the walk behind snow blower thinking it would be easier and loved the idea of the directional snow shut. The shoot is supposed to lock in place but every time you use it the shut comes loose i...

I fought the snow and the Snow Joe won.
Bought this last year but not enough snow to use it. We got 11 inches of heavy wet snow last time and it was showtime. The Snow Jow did the job. I will say that 11" is probably the deepest snow this unit can handle. It took several passes, it wasn't taking the entire amount in one gulp. Some issues with the chute clogging but the snow was nasty. However, if I had had to...

Having tried the 626E, I miss my 623E
I have two SJ snowblowers. One for each deck. Both snowblowers were 623E until one of them broke. The power cord to the handle broke. I got this 626E as a replacement. Customer support said the 626E has some improvements over the 623E, which is out of stock. Well, I just tried the new 626. Compared to the 623E, this 626E sucks. The handle is flimsy and will likely bend...

No replacement parts
I bought this unit just 1 season ago. The drive belt broke this season. Snow joe does not have the belt, not does any hardware store in Canada. Thus rendering the product useless. Hence, do remember that in case you buy the product and anything happens so you are on your own without any help or support from Snow Joe. Do not buy.

No spare parts
The blower worked ok for a season and and then the belt broke. They don't have the replacement online. Nor the tech support can provide you with any help. So, the the blower is pretty much garbage now. Not worth it spending money if you cannot get the replacement parts.

No Replacement parts for Plastic
Warranty expired 2 weeks ago and now the pulley is broken. No replacement parts are available for this plastic piece that breaks most often. Very unhappy.

No replacement parts. Breaks down easily.
I bought this two season ago and the warranty just expired two weeks ago. Guess what? The Pulley wheel that drives the blades broke. This plastic piece is the most common piece to break on these snow blowers. Guess what? They don't make a replacement part for this model anymore.
Just know, if you buy this it will break down after a year or so and that's the end. Buy an...

Unsatisfied
Under powered, flimsy, and folks don't hit anything with the auger. It's made of way too light of metal. It will bend and break. That was fast I just bought it and started using it too. Warranty is a sno joke

Bang for buck
After getting Doctors orders not to shovel anymore, and upon seeing 3rd LA Nina year in a row, I bought this unit after seeing YouTube summaries by other users. For me, this unit is as advertised - lightweight, powerful, and easy for me to assemble to use. In fact a good friend regrets not getting one when I did.

Electric Snowblower to be proud off
This is a review for the Snow Joe SJ626E Electric Snow Thrower
Assembly of the snow thrower was a breeze and fairly simple
I would say it weighs about 20-30lbs so make sure you keep on ground level.
As far as power goes, I was a bit surprised at what it could it, after a few tripped fuses i found an outlet and power cord that worked well with it to run smoothly.

Awesome!
This snow thrower is amazing! I will never go back to using gas. It was so easy to turn on, by a press of a button. It is super light weight and easy to push. We have used it in a couple of snow falls now and it has been flawless. It leaves a very light dusting underneath and blows away 99% of the snow. I’ve used it on our driveway and our deck. The chute is also adjust...

Fantastic Product
Was able to remove 2-3 inches of snow like a champ for a 100 foot driveway with ease. I have never had a snow thrower before, so had to learn to adjust for wind and with neighbors nearby I didn't want to blow snow on what they had done, so what took about 30 minutes, probably would only take 15 minutes if I was a veteran. It is so easy to use, change the direction for...

Easy to Use
This electric snow thrower is so easy to use! And it's light. Weighing around 37lbs makes it easy to move through the driveway too. And boy does it throw some snow! We got a small dusting this weekend, about 2 inches, so I used the thrower to clear the driveway. It started right up, cleared the snow, and when I was done my arms did not hurt from trying to control an ove...

Winter is a LOT Easier Now!
We live in the snowbelt and very rural. We have several acres of land, a LONG driveway, and several brick walkways my husband put in when we built our home.
My husband usually does the driveway with his tractor, but I can't use it, because it's just too hard for me to handle. I usually do the walkways with a shovel, while he is doing the driveway. The Snow Joe Electr...
