Click here for a larger image
Ideal for residential use, the Toro 1800 electric Power Curve snow blower is small in stature yet packs enough muscle to easily clear deep snow from driveways and walkways. The unit’s wide, compact stance, deep-cutting blades, and powerful electric motor move large volumes of snow out of the way, while the adjustable chute puts all that snow right where you want it.
Designed to Move Snow
Combining a 15 amp electric motor with patented Power Curve technology, the blower moves more snow in less time, virtually eliminates clogging, and cleans all the way down to the pavement. In one pass, the blower can clear a path 18 inches wide and 12 inches deep. Move up to 700 pounds of snow in a minute.
The 1800 Power Curve snow blower performs like a gas unit, but without all the maintenance. Just plug it in and throw snow up to 30 feet. Use the snow blower’s Zip Deflector control to throw snow high, low, or in-between, and with just a simple touch, the unit’s positive-locking ratchet deflector adjusts in less than a second.
Built for Convenience
Because it’s electric powered, the 1800 Power Curve snow blower weighs only 25 pounds, making it easy to maneuver and use by many members of the family. Furthermore, the blower’s ergonomic handle provides maximum comfort and leverage, its lift handle makes it easy to transport from the deck to the patio or pathway, and its cord lock system means you don’t have to stop because of interrupted power.
Maintenance-free, the 1800 Power Curve snow blower offers plug-in-and-go convenience, and when not in use, its handle folds for compact storage. Toro covers the electric 1800 Power Curve snow blower with a two-year warranty. Capacity and throw distance will vary with conditions.

Decent but Be Aware of it’s Limitations The Toro Power Curve is not a bad machine for the right situations. At times I’ve been impressed by its effort– but ultimately my needs were more than it could handle. I give it a mostly positive recommendation, but before buying just make sure you aren’t expecting too much from this machine.Living in Wisconsin we get a lot of snow, and my previous snowblower was a small 18″ MTD that handled most everything for 12 years. When it died I was going to replace it with another but I was…
Dig It If you go to Target, Home Depot or any of the other big chains that sell the Toro Electric Shovel you will probably find the same thing that I did…that it is SOLD OUT. Why? Because this is one of the most helpful tools to have ever been placed on the market.It works fairly well on small driveways; don’t forget to pick up a nice long outdoor-use electric extension cord. And use this only on paved surfaces…no loose gravel!But the real benefit of this tool comes with…
