Poulan Pro PR624ES Snow Thrower

the snow blower started the first time after very easy assembly. haven't had a chance to use it yet

This came by truck in a wood framed heavy duty cardboard crate. Wood skid on the bottom and wood support frame on top. It arrived without a scratch on the crate so that impressed me...I mean it(the crate)looked showroom fresh so that was great if not incredible. Unpacking and setup was impressive,..this machine is well built and very much commercial rated. The tines have shear bolts instread of shear pins which I like. The engine came with oil and started right up after adding the gas and hitting the electric start button once. The boom swings smoothly via a control lever which is nice, and it also has a headlamp. The handle bars attach with 4 (not two) wing bolts which I liked,..no skimping. Just a great machine and hogged right thru the drifts. I am very pleased with the price and quality. Especially the quality.

It was easy to put together. Fired up first pull and the electric start works great. Since my luck is the greatest the snow stopped, but still had all of the snow pilled up in the lawn from previous shoveling so when I fired it I took it right into the packed icy snow it shot it accross the lawn and almost hit the neighbors car about 25 feet away. I can't wait till we get some snow and see if I can hit the neighbor while he's shoveling.

After spending weeks of research on snow throwers and multipel trips to BORG and mom and pop dealerships, I've decided to pull the trigger on this Poulan Pro PR5524ES Pro 5.5HP 24-Inch 2 Stage Snow Thrower with Electric Start and remote chute. Poulan Pro is actually owned by Husqvarna. Delivery: This item arrived pretty fast and the driver was kind enough to use his lift gate and palette lift to haul it to our garage. Packaging: Amazing and the box is very sturdy and has a built in palette. Assembly: Really easy to assemble, no missing parts, was able to run the machine 15 mins after taking it out of the package. Instruction Manual: Easy to read and easy to follow. Finish: Great finish on the machine. Unit: Wow, not a lot of plastic on this thing. The chute is solid and very easy to control. The unit looks like it will hold up well. The headlight was great addition and we've gotten 3 heavy snows already and this thing cleared over 7 inches of snow like it was nothing... Read more

This is my First snow thrower, and I had done some research before buying anything. I was about to buy one of the big-box-stores affiliated brand snow thrower, but the Poulan-Pro was only slightly more expansive yet proved to have much more to offer such as the headlight (great addition), the easier to use chute control handle, and even the color is better ;) we have a VERY long driveway which was the reason for getting this (no way I could shovel THAT much snow) and this thing will clear the 100ft driveway + back path to house + ~100ft street walkway in about 30-45 minutes at 4"-6" of snow - heck, I even clear the neighbors area where the snowplows block the entrance to the street. this thing works like a charm! the only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars are the fact that it came with 1 tire deflated (it's losing air every couple of days- I've contacted customer support, and am awaiting a response about that), and the fact that the skid plates have gotten rusty very quickly - ...
