  • Our take on the Toro Power Clear 518 ZE

    The Toro Power Clear 518 ZE is a compact single-stage gas snow blower with an 18-inch clearing width and a 99cc engine. Its standout feature is the electric start, which removes the pull-cord struggle on cold mornings, and it throws snow up to about 25 feet. At under 60 pounds it is easy to push and store, making it a good fit for driveways and walkways in moderate snowfall. Against two-stage machines it gives up deep-snow capability and heated grips, but it costs far less and takes up little space.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Toro Power Clear 518 ZE good for deep snow?
    No. As a single-stage machine it handles light to moderate snowfall best. Deep or wet snow will slow it down and may require multiple passes.
    Does it have electric start?
    Yes. It uses an electric starter, so you do not have to pull a cord in cold weather. It still runs on gasoline.
    How wide does it clear?
    The intake is about 18 inches wide and 12 inches tall, which suits sidewalks and single-car driveways.
    Does it have a headlight or heated grips?
    No. It has neither a headlight nor heated handgrips, so plan for low-light clearing and cold hands.
    Is it self-propelled?
    Yes. The wheels are driven, which helps on slopes, but it is not designed for steep or unpaved terrain.
    What is included with the blower?
    It ships as a complete gas-powered unit with electric start. Check the box for the battery or cord setup the starter requires, since that varies by version.
    Where is the Toro Power Clear 518 ZE cheapest?
    At Ace Hardware, for $649.00, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Toro Power Clear 518 ZE?
    2 stores we checked sell it, including Ace Hardware, Tractor Supply Co.
