For much of the Midwest, a snow blower is essential. And with more than 300 locations, Menards is the go-to store for much of the region, stocking dozens of snow blowers each season. Since its founding in the 1960s, the home improvement chain has developed a reputation for offering excellent prices on top-performing models. One way they do that? By offering some smaller versions of the beefiest blowers.
How CR Tests Snow Blowers
To test snow blowers and power snow shovels, we turn the scene outside our Yonkers, N.Y., headquarters into a virtual blizzard. Most years, our testers throw more than 1 million cubic inches of saturated sawdust—CR’s proprietary blend of fake snow—on the ground and use it to identify the best new models that can clear a driveway as well as a plow pile. Our sawdust blend gives us a consistent substance to plow in order to judge each snow blower.
You can learn more about our testing methods in our snow blower buying guide, which also offers shopping tips, seven snow blower features to consider, and descriptions of major snow blower brands.
