80V 12" Brushless Snow Shovel (Tool Only)

Hi Greenworks,

I love my 80v cordless snow shovel. It saves me time and backache, especially this winter. i've added the wheel attachment to improvement even further. The cherry-on-top would be a retrofit for a chute so I could direct the snow sideways. This thing clears even dense snow like a monster, but sometimes I'd prefer not almost hitting cars that are passing by!

I should have listened to the reviews. I debated buying this tool but finally broke down and bought it. The wheel attachment that is supposed to address the weight and awkward ergonomic issue is never in stock. I bought the shovel on sale, but since the wheel attachment was out of stock I now have to pay shipping on top of the cost of the attachment as I’ll have to order it separately if it ever comes back in stock. Why they wouldn’t just sell it together is beyond me. Should have heeded the warnings in the reviews.

This works well, things I feel it is lacking, wish it was a bit longer, and the battery is super difficult to remove. Poor design on that part. But wow can it throw snow.

It does a great job.It is very powerful and throws the snow far away.It goes through deep snow easy.The battery lasts about 30-40 minutes.It is a bit heavy but I just push it to clear the snow.Very pleased with it.It beats lifting the snow with a shovel.

It's a great machine, it does what it's supposed to but it is very heavy, and all at the shovel end. Also it's not built for tall people, combine the weight and the awkward body positioning makes for a sore back.

Throw the snow far away, very efficient. Heavy, but you don't have to lift it

Trop lourd , glisse pas bien sur le pavé, et comme tout c'est appareil peut importe la marque la rafale de neige est épouvantable car ça ne tire pas assez loin , de plus si vous avez des angle à faire prêt de la maison prenez en considération que ça souffle que d'avant. D'autre compétiteur on mis un cornet qui dirige la neige si ça serait à refaire j'achèterai ce model plus polyvalent

Good

My kids gave me this as a gift so I wouldnt keel over from shovelling my walkway. But honestly, hauling this thing around would probably do me in before a shovel would (maybe the kids had ulterior motives??). It wouldnt be so awkward and hard on the back if I didnt have to stoop low to make it work too. Im 5'3" so I cant imagine anyone taller having an easy time with this. It does work so points for that and I was going through at least 8" of snow.
Overall, more trouble than its worth imho. Just dont tell my kids ;)

It's a good tool for clearing smaller areas like a deck. Throws snow a long way and can cope with heavier snowfalls (Southern Ontario).
Unfortunately, to angle it for good distance, and unless you want it to get jarringly stuck on every slight protrusion (e.g. deck screw heads), you need to hold the trigger end about 2' off the ground. This means you have to lean way forward to hold the second handle, regardless of how it is adjusted. It ends up placing a lot of strain on the low back. If it wasn't for the fact that I need to throw snow over a railing, I would choose a shovel.

This shovel came with the 80v snow blower package I purchased which I have left another review on. My review on this shovel is from using it this season.I have used the shovel to get trim areas hard to get to with the blower (small walks and narrow areas) and have also used it to clear the entire driveway (3 car drive approx 25' long - standard city lot setback).It works well on small areas and is fine for removing entire drive if the snow is light (2-3 inches). It can be difficult to maneuver as it must be pointed in the direction you want the snow be thrown so working around walls etc can be a challenge.The main reason for the mediocre rating is weight. By the time I am finished with the work I am almost as tired as just using a regular shovel due to weight and weird maneuvering to keep the snow being thrown in the correct direction. Since this was essentially a free item in the kit it's worth keeping but I would not recommend purchasing one. I would rather but a light weight snow blower. I think it would be less strenuous and do a better job.

Use it in areas the snow clearing service cannot clear. Cleared snow in half the time of shoveling and no more sore back. Cleared areas with deep of 20+ cm doing 2 passes.

Bought this recently to help clearing snow in areas where the snow thrower can't access. Unfortunately can't use it as much as I would like. The shovel would need to have either variable speed (especially lower speed) or a way to raise or lower the height at which the snow is being thrown. Although if you need a powerful shovel it might be great for you. As this throws the snow as far as the 80v 24inch snow thrower (sometimes even further) which is a bit too much for my use case.

Very disappointed. I've just tried it once and I realized that it is really too heavy as you need to lift it often for stairs or simply to move it. The direction of the snow is also a problem as you don't have any other option than only right in front of you! So it is not practical at all.

This product seemed like a good replacement for a traditional shovel. I was wrong. It's heavy so you don't want to lift it. You can't control the direction of the snow so you are limited to where you can use it. If you are tall you will need to use it hunched over like the guy in the greenworks picture.The snow shovel is quiet and powerful. It doesn't have a problem clearing 6 inches of snow and throwing it 25 feet.This device needs a speed selector to limit the snow throwing distance or a deflector to direct the snow to the side. A bent shaft would have made this device more comfortable to use.

I purchase the shovel early before the snow comes. I haven't used the shovel yet but once I did I'll be happy to post a reveiw regarding shovel and how the tool is working.
