Our take on the Ariens 921048 Deluxe 28 in. Two-Stage Electric Start Gas Snow Blower

The Ariens Deluxe 28 is a two-stage gas snow blower with a 28-inch clearing width, a 14-inch serrated all-steel auger and a 21-inch housing height. It has Auto-Turn steering, electric start and throws snow up to 50 feet at a claimed 62-72 tons per hour. It suits homeowners with long driveways and heavy, drifting snow who want a machine that steers easily. Against smaller single-stage and compact two-stage rivals it clears wider and handles deeper drifts, but it is heavy, needs fuel and maintenance, and takes up real garage space.

Questions and answers

How much snow can the Deluxe 28 handle?
Ariens rates it at 62-72 tons per hour with a 21-inch housing height, so it handles deep drifts and plow banks that stall smaller blowers.
Does it have electric start?
Yes. It starts with a turn of the key on household current, with a pull cord as backup.
What is Auto-Turn steering?
The machine senses which handle you are pulling and shifts drive to the wheels so it pivots with less effort at the end of a pass.
Is a 28-inch width too big for a small driveway?
It is more machine than a short, flat driveway needs. The extra width pays off on long runs and heavy snow, but it is harder to store.
What maintenance does the gas engine need?
Expect oil changes, spark plug checks and fresh fuel or a fuel stabilizer each season, plus belt and shear-pin checks.
How does it compare with the Deluxe 24?
The 28 clears a wider path and moves more snow per hour; the 24 is smaller and easier to store.
Where is the Ariens 921048 Deluxe 28 in. Two-Stage Electric Start Gas Snow Blower cheapest?
