These Toros do a great job for a hundred bucks. They will do light snow, good for cars, leaves no problem, great for cleaning off the driveway in summer. I think at one time they were rated as the best electric blower.
For Edmonton I still think a snowblower is the way to go. Too much wet heavy snow.
