Perfect for Clearing Small Areas
Designed to make it easier and safer to walk on snowy surfaces--without the back-breaking work of shoveling--the Snow Fox creates a 12.5-inch-wide path, has an intake height of six inches, and throws snow up to 25 feet. An ideal choice for smaller areas like steps, patios, and decks covered with light snow, the Snow Fox features a three-position shoot control that allows for precise snow placement.Thanks to the Snow Fox's powerful 8.5-amp electric engine that has 110-volt/1,100-watt power, you won't have to waste time and energy dealing with the mess and hassle of gas or oil. And to ensure quick and safe cold-weather starts, the motor is double insulated. Lightweight Design for Easy Handling
At just 20 pounds, the Snow Fox is comfortable to handle and hold. Durable molded plastic housing stands up to wear and tear, and four sturdy plastic five-inch wheels make the blower incredibly easy to maneuver. There's also an ergonomic double handle for using the Snow Fox in compact areas and on steps, and a cord minder that minimizes tangles. For further convenience, this snow blower comes fully assembled and is backed by a two-year limited warranty. About Yard Machines: Hardworking and Hard to Beat

 All I can say is WOW! December 27, 2004

I just cleared 14" of snow off my driveway and used nothing but this machine. It is fabulous. I know the manual says it can handle up to 6" of snow but believe me this thing handled this last snowstorm without any trouble. Granted I only took 1/2 swaths but still it handled it beautifully. It even handled the stuff that got plowed into the end of my driveway from the road. This Snowfox really does shoot the snow at least 25 feet except when you have the chute turned left or right, then it shoots about 5-8' tops.
I would highly recommend this machine for anyone.
A great intermediate step between shovel and snowblower March 4, 2005

I have a short driveway and about 60 feet of sidewalk, so i couldn't justify spending $600 or more on a gas-driven beast of a snowblower. I got this machine after our first snow in late December. Since the east coast has been hogging all the snow this winter, I hadn't had a chance to use it here in South Dakota (usually the harsh winter capital of the nation) until mid-February. Now that I have, though, I'm very pleased.
As mentioned by others, throwing snow to the side only moves it about six feet. This worked fine for my sidewalks (the 12-inch cut let me get the whole sidewalk in three furrows, which took about five minutes).
A pointer for anyone clearing a small amount of snow: I worked out a decent system for the driveway where i start down the middle and throw snow a few feet to each side as I work my way to the edges. By the time I get to the edges, I'm throwing the accumulated pile off onto the grass. This clears the driveway rather well, though obviously it wouldn't be as useful in 20 to 30 inches of snow as some other people have seen this winter.
Power cord management is the only real downside to this device. I find myself spending a pretty good amount of time tossing the cord out of my way as i go and down the driveway. It's a minor annoyance that i still hope to find a solution for.
In all, i can now clear my drive and sidewalk in 20 minutes or so rather than the 45 to 60 minutes it took me by shovel. it also fits neatly in my crowded garage. A great little product.

Perfect for a City Dweller or some one with a property that has
a Double Parking lot and 100 feet of three feet wide walks
this SNOW FOX does a Great Job!
The Snow Thrower was delivered in a Perfect Box.
I called MTD to order a spare scraper, they are really helpful.
So far we had 3 storms of under 6 inches snow.
This has paid for itself. Shoots the snow about 50 feet away.
The neighbors are looking at this machine in amaze! Lucky, I bought one before the nasty weather appeared. Good Luck all you other Snow Fox owners!
I'm Very Pleased!! January 21, 2005

I got this as a Christmas present and had my first opportunity to use it a few days ago. I have to say it does what it says it will. I cleared my entire driveway, front walk, and walk leading to my front porch in about 15 or 20 minutes. It does really throw the snow quite far when the chute is adjusted straight and not to the sides.
Good price and works well! December 4, 2005

I just used it for the first time on about 3 inches of snow and it works very well. I'm a single female and I appreciate that it's light weight and easy to maneuver. However the cord does get in the way, but it's a lot better then manually shoveling the snow. I have a 2 car driveway and it threw the snow far enough to the side that it landed on the grass. I do wish that it had a wider clearing path but it did the job and for the price it's well worth it.
I would definitely recommend the Snow Fox to those who want a light weight, easy to use snow thrower to clear smaller areas.
