Little Green around the edges, but don't count it out!
This is a very light-weight unit, compatible with the family of 40V Batteries! Great if you live in an area that may not have a ton of light outside, it's nice to see what you're doing if the snow starts coming down late. You do need to be mindful of the max load, wet, heavy, packed snow won't play nice with this entry-level snowthrower!

Figuring out the puzzle.What makes This thing tic
It would be nice to know you cannot turn off the lights on this unit unless you push the bar backwards and release Bought this machine early before the crowd comes in and takes the snow blowers I don't think the batters would mind having lights on constantly while turning on

    GREAT replacement for the original 80v brushless snow blowe
    For the past few years (couple three ish) I've been using an older Greenworks 80v snow blower. After getting frustrated with gas powered lawn tools, I decided to give battery power a try. The original 80v Greenworks snowblower was good but not great. The solid plastic auger chipped easily and sounded terrible if it tickled a rock or uneven edge of sidewalk (bright green shavings evidence of contact remain for weeks). One recent snow storm and the old model decided to quit working, so a replacement was needed fast. Enter this new 80v unit. I wanted to keep the same battery system since my lawmnower is also Greenworks 80v. This version seems to improve upon the few weaknesses of the previous one. Couple snow showers into the season and it's earned it's keep. Two thumbs up

    22" of 80V Snow Clearing Power
    Bought this after moving into new home, 60ft x 21ft concrete drive. Got hit with 1-1/2 day 10-12" snowfall. This beast gobbled it up. Pushed it a bit hard as some depths were even over intake height but did it in sections. No clogging..yeah. I have 2, 80V LI Pro Batteries. Needed mostly one, but spare helpful. Charged batteries inside in warm area. All great. I have many Greenworks products.

    In the nick of time
    This beauty arrived just in time for the biggest snowfall we've had this winter. It worked admirably, but did take a small learning curve. The snow was 10" and the thrower would stall on me if I worked it too hard. However, taking it a bit slower and not trying to go too deep it worked just fine. Loads better than shoveling!!

    So far works well.
    Very easy to assemble. I only needed to assemble handle and snow chute. So far I've only used it once, but it worked very well. Quiet operation, just like the greenworks lawn mower.

    A lifesaver in the Midwest
    I got my first Greenworks 40V lawn mower, a few years ago and never looked back. This year, out of necessity, I bought the Greenworks 40V snowblower. It works quite well despite the horrific snowfall. Sometimes I need to clear the chute (mostly due to wet ice) and attack steep snow in “steps” or sections but it still performs well under these conditions.

    Great Snow Blower
    Love this snow blower! Obviously, at 40v it cannot plow through everything without stopping. But if you know that and take things slow it makes things sure a lot easier than what I did in the past (a corded snow blower)! Plus, I love that my battery packs get use in the summer (mower) and winter!

    Clear the way
    Very good guality Can deal with 4 inches of light snow very well, but wet, heavy snow is too challenging

    LIGHT DUTY BUT GETS THE JOB DONE....
    Previously had Geenworks 80 v pro sno blower that just quit (the second GW 80 v tool that just quit & unable to get repaired--I stick GW b/c I have a bunch of 80 v and 40 v batteries)--couldn't get in to shop for repair--so bought this b/c & we were still in snow season; this 40v served adequately so far in 2 light snow storms--have to modify technique-make two runs at a stretch of snow-doesn't throw it very far--hope it lasts---but gets the job done and definitely better that shoveling...

    Powerful and yet quiet and pollution free.
    I am pleased with this machine so far. I've only had two opportunities to use it since it is fairly new, and both times the snow was only about 2" deep, but it was also wet and heavy snow, which I feared could overwork the machine. I had no trouble clearing my walks and driveway. I used a 6-AH battery, and I had 60-70% battery capacity leftover when I was done. I have a 1/4 acre yard with 140' driveway and I also did the sidewalk of my two adjacent neighbor's houses and a walkway around the rear of my house, maybe 300+ feet of sidewalk total. Next week we are supposed to get 8" of snow and I have confidence this machine will clear it all again without having to use my 2nd battery that I purchased as a backup. I love how quiet the machine runs compared to gasoline powered ones I considered buying, and no foul fumes! This really is a green machine. No noise pollution, no air pollution, and enough power to do the job.

    Greenworks is #1 and a great investment!!!!!
    We just got 6-9” of snow and this 40 volt works great for our needs. We still have to do a little shoveling, but nothing like what life was like before this baby! We read the reviews and response from Greenworks and made smaller passes, cause the snow was wet and heavy. We love Greenworks products and almost have all the tools! Greenworks is the best investment we made in power equipment. We are happy we don't have to worry about gas anymore.

    Works great, just not in wet snow
    I bought the 40v to go with my mower, string trimmer, and blower. This works great and I love not having to get gas or do the annual maintenance that gas requires. The caveat is that with a decent amount of wet snow its not powerful enough to throw it. I want to upgrade to the 60 or 80v to solve this. (From northern IL)
