I see there’s a jiffy on sale now at Canadian tire for about that same price.

Default Ice Auger

Jiffy Pro 4 10" propane , Hands down the best. I punch a lot of holes when I go out, and one bottle of propane lasts hundreds of holes. Depending on how cold it is & where you store the motor( out of the wind & cold) the bottles last & are cheap compared to gas. And the best part is no smell or mixing/ spilling gas/oil.The power is better than my buddies old Jiffy Pro 30 gas& cut holes way faster! 5 winters now & thousands of holes drilled every winter & not one issue. Starts on first pull & I can drill in the tent without smoking it out.

I had a really old Eskimo auger 8” all metal. It was good but a real pain to start. I upgraded last year to a jiffy pro 4 lite. It actually weights the same as my old auger so not that light. But starts first pull and I’ve never used a full bottle. Maybe go out2 or 3 times a month. It’s has been flawless. I move around a lot more drilling holes for everyone and I don’t come home smelling like 2 stroke or spilled gas.
