How much snow can it handle?

It is built for light, dry snow a few inches deep. Wet or deep snow will slow it and drain the battery fast.

Does it come with a battery and charger?

That varies by listing, so check the box contents before buying. Some bundles include a 20V battery and charger; others are tool-only.

Expect a short run per charge, roughly enough for a walkway or a couple of decks in light snow. Cold weather and wet snow cut that time further.

It is more convenient because there is no cord to manage, but a corded model usually throws snow farther and runs as long as you need.

Not well. It is best for steps, decks and short paths; a long driveway needs a wider gas or corded electric blower.

Drain the battery, clean and dry the auger and housing, and store it indoors. Its small size makes it easy to hang or shelve.
