Pros: Electric start is a godsend in older machines. No battery-direct plug from 110volt outlet.
Cons: Air intake freezes lines. Use a hair dryer to thaw if it dies during storm.

| cros99's Full Review: Toro Ccr 2450 Gts Snow Blower |
I have had the Toro rubber paddle blowers for over Nineteen (Yes 19 Years). My first lasted 17 years and never failed me. A couple of shop visits for preventive maintenance and "Presto" the perfect machine for 10 inch or under storms. Well, It finally died and I went out and bought the same type all over again. Uh oh...It died during the first storm...took it in the shop--It was reluctantly covered under warranty. Second storm-- sorry it DID start so that will be $70 please (to try and tell me I had the choke on wrong)!! Now I am furious. **It seems Toro re-designed the body so snow gets sucked into the air intake and freezes the carb. Oops!! We'll be coming out with a repair patch really soon and you will be the first we notify. (Winter 2004/5)and still waiting). Electric starter died after 5 uses but---opps, sorry times up. No longer covered under warranty.
All In all A Great machine if we can teach these college boys at Toro--"If It Aint Broke---DONT FIX IT".
