Amazon and Lowe’s look to have the same good deal on this EGO 28″ cordless snow blower, model SNT2807.
The kit comes with the 28″ two-stage snow blower, a dual battery charger, and (2) 56V 12Ah batteries.
I tested EGO’s smaller two-stage snow blower – it’s been excellent, with powerful, consistent, and reliable performance. This 28″ model looks quite a bit different, aside from being able to clear a wider path, but looks to have good reviews.

Features include variable speed self-propulsion, trigger-controlled steering assist, heated handles, and a joystick for electronic chute adjustments.
It has 16″ x 5″ snow tires for traction. EGO says this blower has a 28″ clearing width and 21″ intake height, and can throw snow up to 60 feet away. They say it can clear up to a 32-car driveway with 8 inches of snow on a single charge with the included batteries.
Deal Price: $2070.26
Ignoring the various “was” and “list” prices (most claim it was $2419), other EGO dealers are selling the same kit for $2269 right now. Amazon and Lowe’s knock nearly $200 off that price.
I shopped around and couldn’t find a lower price outside of Amazon and Lowe’s. The other EGO dealers I checked have the same model for a couple of hundred dollars more, and some tack on freight fees. If you price-shop, keep in mind there’s also the tool-only model, and a smaller 24″ snow blower.
Amazon has other EGO snow blower deals:

21″ Cordless Snow Blower – single stage
24″ Cordless Snow Blower Kit – similar to what I tested
24″ Cordless Snow Blower Kit – newer model with more features, higher capacity batteries
Caution: Amazon says all of these are non-returnable, but refund or replacement can be requested if there is damage or defects. The policy cites transportation of hazardous materials, which likely refer to the high watt-hour batteries.
Lowe’s has free delivery (as of the time of this posting) and also advertises free returns.

Not snow related, but an Ego mower query: There are a lot of Ego mower models (16!), but I haven’t discovered anything that lays out the options & reasons for each model. If anyone is aware of an Ego mower model comparison table, I’d love to see it.

The Ego snow shovel is on sale too. I’ve been eyeing it up but have yet to pull the trigger.

I’m definitely going to buy it! Wish it had the 4.0 battery like with the multi-head attachment but 2.5 is going to have to do.

I’ve got the 24″ model and it’s pretty beasty in its own right. Ceramic coat it (then maintain with a graphene spray) and it handles snow quite well.

I would just like to say that the day this website ceases is going to be one of the most depressing days ever for me. What Stuart has created with this site is mind boggling, invaluable, and amazing. I’m only a DIYer, but I read this site everyday. I don’t see how it can ever be replicated, given the amount of work and care that Stuart puts into this. Hats off. I’ll try to enjoy it and appreciate it while I have it.
Stuart
Thank you, I appreciate it! I’m not sure how you got there from a cordless snow blower deal alert post, but I’ll take it!

Can these be left outside at all? More or less than the gas ones?
Stuart
The user manual probably has guidance on this, but I would NOT leave any cordless snow blower outside overnight.

I left it outside last winter under a tarp. I’m in Canada. We got tons of snow where I live and it can drop under 30C at night on the coldest days. Didn’t see any problems. Just keep the battery inside and you’ll be fine. Ego sell a cover by the way so I imagine they are not against it.
