Re: Ariens ST824DLE or Toro 924 Power Shift? Or Husky?

Yes, and the Toro 924 Power Shift I believe also has this. The Husky machines are different--they have a kind of trigger device under each handle to disengage as needed when turning. That doesn't sound as good to me...
Ariens ST824DLE or Toro 924 Power Shift? Or Husky?

Hello all,

I am looking to pick up a good snowblower with easy-turn/differential for home use.  Wondering if there's much of a difference between these brands--I can get a Toro 924 that is maybe 6 years old with limited use for around $700. The Ariens is older but in very good shape as well. Not sure if that has a "push-button" lock release on the wheel or if it is a true differential...the seller (Craigslist, of course!) isn't too talkative or specific on the phone. Other folks have a somewhat newer product--a 3 year old Husqvarna 1027 from Lowe's and then there's a 10527 of about same age..all are going for about $700..any ideas? Also wondering what kind of life expectancy these units have--15 years? 20? More?? Thanks for any thoughts you all may have!
