Seems tho, it could get stuck and then you would have a big problem.

I like the idea of the magnetic blade cover.

It looks like it would freeze up pretty easy.

X2 this would be my biggest concern as well.

Neat toy, but not really practical.

I think the only way it would get stuck, is if you drilled a really crooked hole. The auger will freeze to it when it sits for a while, but as long as you don't leave it full of ice chips/slush, a good thump with your boot should free it up, it looks like it's plastic. If the price is reasonable, I might order one.
