Our take on the Ariens Platinum 24 SHO Snow Blower

The Ariens Platinum 24 SHO is a two-stage gas snow blower with a 24-inch clearing width, a 389 cc engine and a cast-iron gear case. The SHO badge means a high-output impeller and chute setup for faster snow throwing, and it has 120V electric start so you don't pull a cord in the cold. It weighs 286 lbs, so it is a serious machine for a residential driveway. The best new price is $2,075.32 at Walmart as of November 6, 2026, with two stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is the Ariens Platinum 24 SHO worth it over a cheaper two-stage?
If you get heavy, wet or drifting snow and want a cast-iron gear case plus a high-output impeller, the extra cost is justified. For light snowfall on a short driveway, a smaller machine will do.
How does the SHO differ from the standard Platinum 24?
The SHO version uses a high-output impeller and chute for greater throwing distance. The standard Platinum 24 has the same 24-inch width but less throwing power.
Does it have electric start?
Yes. It has a 120V electric start, so you plug in an extension cord to start it, then unplug. A recoil pull start is also available as backup.
What size driveway is it suited to?
It fits most residential driveways, including long or sloped ones, thanks to the 24-inch width and 389 cc engine. Very large commercial lots would call for a wider machine.
What comes in the box?
The listing includes the snow blower itself. You supply engine oil, fuel and a 120V extension cord for electric start.
When is the price lowest?
Snow blowers usually discount in late winter and early spring as dealers clear stock. The best new price was $2,075.32 at Walmart as of November 6, 2026.

At Walmart, for $2,075.32, as of our latest check.
