If you have a private house or cottage, and snowdrifts in your area are a common occurrence, a snow blower simply must be in your arsenal. Most often, the market offers options with an internal combustion engine. They have a lot of advantages, but there are also disadvantages. For clarity, consider two models from a popular German brand. One with a gasoline unit, the other model is electric:
Model | Power (hp) | Weight, kg) | Noise level (dB) | Price |
Huter SGC 2000E (electric motor) | 6,5 | 10,6 | 40 | 16300 rub. |
Huter SGC 4800 (petrol engine) | 2,72 | 76 | 95 | 54200 rub. |
The difference is obvious. Accordingly, electric versions also have their advantages:
- low price;
- quiet work;
- a light weight;
- high maintainability;
- ease of management;
- ease of maintenance.
And this is not a complete list. At the same time, the electric snow blower is not limited by the power of the motor. You can put any unit on it, but it will still be lighter and quieter than gasoline. True, in most cases we see engines with a power of about 2 kilowatts, which in terms of horsepower is 2.72. That is, the electric versions are mostly less powerful. But the electric motor does not produce harmful emissions into the atmosphere. With such a device, you will not wake up the whole neighborhood with the roar of the engine, and in order to cope with it, you do not have to go to the gym and build muscles.
But in fairness, it is also necessary to talk about the cons of electric versions. They are, and the most obvious is network binding. If the internal combustion engine is completely autonomous, then the electric motor needs power. So, you will constantly carry a carrying from the outlet. This is inconvenient, especially if you have a large area with many turns and obstacles. Here everything is known in comparison. If you are ready to buy a network extension cable, and your private house does not stand on a plot of several hectares, then it makes sense to consider this option. In addition, it is much cheaper than its gasoline counterpart, and this is what most often becomes the main argument when choosing and motivating to put up with an extension cord.
As for quality and reliability, everything is more complicated here. The issue of economy should recede, as the cheapest models are unlikely to be the best.But there are also quite interesting offers produced by not very well-known brands. They also deserve attention, but are also cheaper. In our rating you will find both models from famous brands that have proven themselves, as well as little-known ones.
Top 10. ELITECH CM 2E
- Average price: 16,700 rubles.
- Country: Russia (produced in China)
- Power (kW): 1.8
- Snow throw distance (m): 8
- Auger material: rubber
- Snow Grip (cm): 50×33
- Chute adjustment: from the control panel

If you look at the characteristics of the device, you might think that this is the best option for your money. He has top specs. For example, snow lift up to 33 centimeters and a wide grip that allows you to cope with higher snowdrifts. The device throws the masses at a distance of up to 8 meters, and the chute rotates 180 degrees from the control panel. Moreover, the model is equipped with skids, which is very convenient, since the wheels often get stuck in the snow and stop rotating. But if you read user reviews, it becomes clear that the manufacturer saved on the quality of the plastic from which the case is made. It is weak and breaks from blows. However, if you handle the equipment carefully, then this drawback will not affect you.
- Skids instead of wheels
- Balanced Options
- Capture 33 centimeters and above
- Weak plastic case
- Poor build quality

The case is also made of impact-resistant plastic. And the auger is completely rubber. Snow does not stick to it, so cleaning is extremely rare. Yes, and the electric motor pleases with its power. Even packed snow will be easily lifted and thrown 6 meters in any direction. The chute rotates 180 degrees. However, the wheels let us down - they do not have their own drive and a large diameter, so they can get stuck in the snow.

He is able to lift snowdrifts up to 33 centimeters high, and this is only a nominal limitation. The design of the intake here is of an unusual shape, so the device really bites into deep snow and throws it out. True, not far, only 4 meters.It should also be understood that the unit is not designed for cleaning loose crust. There is not the most powerful motor of 1.6 kilowatts. This introduces certain restrictions, but if you try to clean the site regularly, then you will not need more.

This is the main advantage of this model. The manufacturer has thought of every detail. Management is completely brought to the handle. The ejection chute is easily adjustable and rotates 180⁰. The fence is big. Snow does not get stuck in it. This is also facilitated by a rubberized auger, on which the masses do not stick, even if they are wet.

Yes, it cannot be said that the device is inexpensive, but considering how long it will serve you faithfully, the price tag no longer seems high.

If you have a private house or cottage, you have probably heard about this manufacturer. It has long established itself in the market and is famous for the high quality of its products. Now we have an electric snow blower, the best in a number of indicators. For example, the weight of the structure. On average, an electric snow blower weighs about 15 kilograms, and a Hooter weighs just over 10 kilograms. It is very easy to work with him. In addition, the apparatus is made of impact-resistant plastic, and the auger is finished with rubber, on which snow does not stick. And the disadvantages include the lack of chute adjustment from the control panel. You will have to turn it on the body manually. Not very convenient if you have to make maneuvers.
- impact resistant plastic
- Relatively inexpensive device
- Lightweight construction
- Famous brand with high quality products
- No chute adjustment from control panel
Top 3. DDE STE220

- Snow throw distance (m): 1-10
- Auger material: rubber
- Snow Grip (cm): 46×18
- Chute adjustment: from the control panel
- Weight (kg): 14
The main advantage of this model is the long-range ejection of snow masses. You can adjust it yourself in the range from 1 to 10 meters. An excellent solution if you have a large cottage or a plot on which a private house stands. This became possible due to the fact that a fairly powerful unit of 2.2 kilowatts is on board. This is one of the highest rates found on the market for similar models. But here is a relatively small grip: the height of the snow should not exceed 18 centimeters. This is not enough for some regions, so we recommend that you immediately pay attention to this aspect. But the gear design of the auger allows it to lift both caked crust and freshly fallen sleet.
- Throw range up to 10 meters
- Simple design
- Full rubber auger
- Serrated auger texture
- Not very durable plastic
- Power cord too short

For example, the snow throw range of 9 meters is one of the highest.A great option if you have a large cottage or a private house with many paths. The device is not visually attractive, and this is probably its main drawback. Combined auger - plastic sheathed with thermal rubber. Snow does not stick to it, and the vent is completely open. It practically does not need to be cleaned, even if you clean loose, wet crust.
- Low price
- Convenient to clean
- Long distance snow throw
- Compact dimensions
- "Clumsy" appearance
