Owner Feedback
Nikita Knyazev, 38 years old, Murmansk region:
“In our area this is irreplaceable. I don’t understand how I ever got along without a snow blower. My champion st1074bs has been running for four seasons now. No serious defects were identified. For all this time the button for turning the snow ejection came out – moisture got in. In principle, this is my post – I was too lazy to wipe the case, the snow melted and had to be repaired.
Denis Prokhorovskikh, 56 years old, Siberian Federal District:
“I really like the balance of the case. Despite the impressive weight of 93 kilograms, it is easy to handle, no special efforts are required. I was pleased with the feature of locking the wheels for more comfortable rotation. The engine starts great in any weather. I have never used an electric starter, but I constantly turn on the heater on the grips.
Ivan Sysoev, 43 years old, Arkhangelsk:
“I’ve been using it for four years. No particular defects were identified. Every conceivable bell and whistle is there: from good lighting to wheel locks. There can be no complaints about the engine – an American. Powerful 16-inch wheels hold the surface well, but lack weight – sometimes they still slide. Advantages: reliable motor, heated grips, wheel locks. Disadvantages: none found. ”
