....and, once you get that snow raked off the roof, depending where it lands, you now could have a snow removal job for either a shovel or a snow-blower or both...which ties in to Lowes-Gilford having no snow-blowers in stock....because they were all....maybe 25-machines...were all trucked down to a Lowes store in Massachusetts.

For $599, Lowes sells a Troy-bilt 24" two-stage, self-propelled snowblower which is a real good machine, capable to remove the heavy snow at the top of the driveway where the town plow has piled it on, plus it only weighs about 150-lbs which makes it easier to get it up and onto a single step on a walkway or a deck or something.

For more money, Lowes has Husqvarna snow-blowers, made in Sweden, with heated handle grips, which look to be extremely well made....probably a more capable machine than the Troy-bilt....just judging by the construction.

Anyone have experience with a 24 or 28" Husqvarna snow-blower?

Could well be that one will have to wait until September before Lowes-Gilford has any snow-blowers in stock again? Maybe you want to be locking your snow-blower to a tree!
