Description

The Earthwise SN70016 is a 12-amp corded snow shovel designed to clear fresh snow from relatively flat, hard surfaces around the home, including sidewalks, walkways, decks and smaller driveways. It clears a path up to 16 inches wide and 8 inches deep, moves up to 430 pounds of snow per minute and throws snow up to 30 feet under suitable conditions. Adjustable directional vanes help guide snow discharge, while 6-inch rear wheels and an auxiliary handle support movement and positioning. Snow deeper than the housing can be removed using narrower or layered passes. Wet, packed, crusted or icy snow can increase the load on the motor and may reduce clearing and throwing performance. Remove stones, branches and other objects from the clearing area before operation. Use an outdoor-rated extension cord that complies with the gauge and length requirements in the operator’s manual. If thermal protection activates, stop operation and follow the manual’s cooling and restart instructions.

  • Gets the Job Done. First Time Use Review
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
So I'm from Jersey and if you're looking at the date of this review, we just had around 8 inches land in my area. What better time to test this bad boy out? Granted, I ordered it about a month ago and assembled it. We just haven't had any snow since. I'll say, shipping/box presentation was rough. The product came with a corner smashed in pretty bad, but I hoped everything inside was packed well enough and everything seemed to be in place properly. Instructions to put it together are OKAY. The one thing and maybe my fault, is that I rushed ahead on using 4 screws to put the bottom base together where you join two green plastic covers together. You don't want to do that step until you're ready to screw in the base of the wheels to the unit. The screws will join the wheel assembly to the base of the unit, linking the two green covers together. Just a piece of advise for you there. Aside from that little detail, I think the rest of the assembly was quite straight forward and easy enough. So now, onto performance and ease of use. Some people may complain because it's corded, but I knew that going in. I have 100ft extension cord. As long as you have it loose behind you so you can walk without it pulling you back because you ran out of cord, you'll be fine. I wrap the cord over my shoulder to prevent it from dropping down anywhere near the machine. To engage the machine you have a safety switch you press in and then the trigger held down to activate. Fires up immediately and I just went right at it. The wheels definitely give it nice stability at the bottom so that you can push it with 1 hand rather than having to use two hands to hold it. Though you can, and there is a handle midway up the shaft to give you that extra leverage. I did use that when the snow got tougher to push through. Frequently you're going to hit a snag where it appears to not want to spit, but you simply need to raise or lower it until it bites the snow. It's a lot easier than saying it and all happens in seconds while using it. Put it simply, it won't just do everything for you on its own and will require you to get in with it to make sure it's constantly biting the snow and spitting it forward, but it does it very well and for the most part effortlessly. Another key note worth mentioning is that you can adjust the angle to spit the snow. Not all of these tools have that. It works really well because I required to make it spit left towards my yard and avoid shooting straight onto the street or the neighbors yard on my right. This helps tremendously to guide the snow towards where you want to pile it up. Now for the CONS or things to keep in mind. First obviously, this is my first usage of the machine and cannot give you reliability results yet. I will come back to update this review however if it does go bad on me and any leading factors for that. Keep in mind, you want a relatively flat surface when using this. I mean it can be a driveway that inclines/declines, just make sure that there are no rocks/stones/broken portions that can result in the auger whacking into. Either you're going to be spitting rocks/stones, or you're going to break the plastic auger. Granted it's hard plastic, so it won't go down without a fight. I just wouldn't test it. I bought the 16 inch wide housing over the 12 to get a little more width which would equal completing the job sooner. I HIGHLY recommend that. I know it doesn't seem like much, but those extra inches do help in the grand scheme. More being chomped and spit at a time means less overall passes needed to clear your driveway/walkway. Lastly, you can tackle a wall that the snow plow makes in front of your driveway with it. Because it can be lifted up with a little more effort, you can just basically put it on top of the wall and start grinding your way down. I did this and it worked great. You just need to get yourself an entry point angle to then get it on comfortably and push it along the top until you shave the wall down. So yeah, for now, without a doubt, if you don't mind a corded blower, I highly recommend this. My driveway is the exact length of average sized car left to right and two more right behind them. If you can picture those measurements covered with 8 inches of snow (cars were not in driveway so it was completely covered), it took me 35 minutes to complete the job including the snow wall. ... show more

  • Works great moving snow
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
Works really well for loose snow. Only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is there's no way to control the snow that it throws. First time I used it, I didn't realize at first that I was throwing snow onto my neighbors house (literally onto their roof lol). When I realized it, I changed my path on my driveway and then was throwing the snow fully ACROSS THE STREET onto the other neighbors driveway. Be nice if there was a "deflector" to limit the range it throws. ... show more

  • Electric snow shovel/sn snowblower
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
This thing will definitely move some snow if careful and mindful! I got a good extension cord that doesn't get stiff from the cold. If you have good fresh snow 4 to 6 in and go easy with it it will move some serious snow for you. Just remember don't over load it otherwise it will shut off when it gets warm. Other than that it's well worth the money. Definitely better than getting out the big snow blower. It will also do the end of the driveway when the plow goes through as long as it's not too deep and what I do is I take a shovel and chop it up first. Good luck *Performance, ease of use, lightweight, noise level ... show more

  • Breaks constantly & inoperable after less than 10 uses
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
Overpriced piece of junk. Save your money. The belt inside that spins the auger is so cheap the grooves wear down after every other use and needs to be replaced. And it IS NOT easy to replace. I literally used this unit less than 10 times total since 2020 and had to replace the belt 3 times. Approx. the 6th time used it began having "overheating" issues where the unit would just shut down after 10 mins. Well, last year it broke YET AGAIN where I could hear the motor but it wasn't spinning. I took the entire unit apart again thinking it was the belt alignment but that was fine (I had to replace it the previous year so it was brand new). Now it just turns on for 5 seconds & then automatically turns itself off. If it is overheating that fast then this piece of junk is a severe safety hazard. I have no issues shoveling snow so this isn't a matter of overuse/misuse of the unit. It was only used in light snow approx 3 to 4 inches at the highest. For the very minimal usage this unit broke down constantly & was an overpriced waste of money. ... show more

  • Right expectations = Great product.
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
I purchased the 16" corded version. This is a great little product. I am going to list some of the expectations one should have and some helpful advice on operating it. I have owned it through 2 winters now with a variety of snowfall. I clear my 20' x 50' driveway and a short sidewalk. I would say the size of my driveway is about its limit. Expectations: 1. It will not take all the work out of moving snow. You still have to manually push this thing through the snow, but it is not very heavy. I often push it one-handed. 2. If you have large areas with a lot of expected snowfall, this is not for you. Some people claim to move 7"-8" of snow with it, but it is really not well suited for that much snow. 1"-4" is its ideal range. If you are expecting a large snowfall, clear your area halfway through, then again when the snow is over. 3. You cannot throw the snow exactly where you want. The diverter only makes a suggestion to where the snow goes. It throws out a big cloud of snow that is mostly in front of the direction you are pushing it. Helpful advice: 1. If there is any wind, use it to your advantage. Try to operate this with the wind somewhat at your back. If the wind is blowing right to left, start on the right side and work your way to the left. 2. Cord management is key. The first couple of passes, the cord will be in the way, but if you keep the excess cord to your side, rather than your back, you won't be running over the cord as much. Try to find a cord that is just long enough and not too heavy. 14 ga should be sufficient. If it is too long and heavy, it will be a pain to deal with in the cold weather. 3. If the machine sounds like it is struggling, it is. Slow down or find another method. Mine overheated a couple of times on me because I was doing more than I should have (and I knew better). It has a built-in thermal overload to protect the motor. 4. You will need a place to store this so the snow can melt off of it when you are finished. It will be caked with snow and if it freezes like that, you cannot use it. I would certainly buy this again, I might consider the cordless version, but because of the extra cost of cordless, I can deal with dragging a cord out and I know I won't have to deal with dead batteries. Your neighbors with shovels will be jealous, the ones with 2 stage gas snow blowers won't be unless they find out you only paid around $80 for it. ... show more

  • meh
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
Struggled with snow taller than three inches. It doesn't like anything but powder. It can kinda handle wet snow. I ended up having to only use half of the front so it was less taxing on the machine. It overheated twice on me. The first time was after an hour of use; the second was after a thirty minute cool down and thirty minutes later it died again. The hardware in the handle also becomes loose during use because of the vibrations. I'd say this product is good enough for areas with loose, light and non packing snow. The texture on the wheels is also not great for slick surfaces. They are made of hard plastic and the tread patter doesn't help with traction. It was faster than shoveling but I don't know how long this product will last through a PA winter. The other downside is the size ad electrical hardware. It takes up space and if you were to repeatedly break it down that will wear down the wiring. You can't put it against a wall, it will always be sticking out. The one real positive is it is much lighter than the Ego and there is no battery to worry about. This doesn't matter much if it over heats easily and can't handle the snow types or depth you need. ... show more

  • Surprisingly powerful; easy to use and store
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
I got this mainly to use in areas where my snowblower is too cumbersome to fit, or for places (such as the front steps) where it won't fit at all. But after using it for a few times, it's now my primary snow clearing device when there's 4 inches or less of snow. It can handle more than that, but once the snow is past 4 inches, the snowblower is more efficient and quicker. It's easy to handle, works great, and throws the snow VERY far! I was worried about assembly given all the comments about how hard it is. Not a problem at all -- it's very simple to put together (took me about 10 min). All the parts and pieces fit just fine. The directional baffles are not all that effective. Even when turned to the side, a fair amount of snow gets thrown straight ahead. I find it best to leave them pointing straight ahead, and just position the shovel so that I want the snow going straight. So, for the driveway, I shovel side-to-side rather than top-down as I do with the snowblower. It can handle wet, heavy snow without a problem provided there's not too much of it. The handle length could be longer but is decently comfortable as-is (I'm 6'2"). Being able to adjust the auxiliary handle allows for more comfort. As with any electric device, it's essential to have the right extension cord gauge to make sure you're delivering the power the unit needs. I use a 12-gauge 100 foot cord (the type that remains flexible in the cold). Those type of cords are not cheap, but it ensures the motor won't burn out or overheat. The cold flexible cover on the cord makes the job go a lot easier as well. Very pleased with this and would highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Good light duty machine.
Style: 16-Inch, 12-Amp Corded
First attempt at using this device was on week old slightly crusty snow. It didn’t work very well and went into thermal shutdown three times after a few minutes of use. However on four to five inches of fresh snow it worked great and cleared my driveway without issue. So as long as you understand this is a relatively light duty machine and use it for what it is built for it’s great. If you have heavier crusty snow, I would look at other options. ... show more
