Thanks very much for that additional info. I ordered my machine from HD yesterday (I went with the Platinum 24).

I tried to get it through the local dealer - I found another dealer in the area that had it in stock, and asked my dealer if they could obtain it from the other one. However, they wanted to charge me a $25 delivery fee, which they said I would not incur if I purchased it from HD and it went to them for setup and delivery. So, I went the HD route.

I'm very excited about it, and I can't wait for it to arrive (and then get some snow...)

Did you get your snow blower yet??

I had the same concerns as you, but was assured by the local dealer that the machines are the same whether you buy from HD or a dealer. The whole process took about a week from ordering it through HD to sitting in my garage waiting for the first big dump.

I too went with the Ariens Platinum 24.

good luck, cwest
