Here Are The Top 10 Best Cordless Snow Blowers 2020

Based on this cordless snow blower's aggregated ranking of 83%, we believe that the Snow Joe iON18Sb Cordless is currently Alphachooser's best cordless snow blower 2020. Furthermore, we think that our sample of 5639 reviews from our sources gives us a high confidence level (more on confidence levels) that pushes us to call it a "no-brainer best choice."

Based on 4 stars averaged over 1644 reviews, here is what we consider second best cordless snow blower. * These choices are based on a full computation of hundreds of cordless snow blower reviews from around the web.

Right off the bat, this cordless 21-inch Snow Joe distinguishes itself a couple of ways, if only with its 2-year warranty and 3-watt LED headlight, a feature that most electric snow blowers have, but which is rarer in cordless models -- yet, 3 watts only mean depleting barely 0.06% of its 5000mAh battery (over one hour), which is neglectable and therefore, should represent an advantage (though we are always fascinated at how bright winter nights are even without lights, at least in urban areas). The 15 amps brushless motor promises a throwing distance of 20 feet and a 660 pounds per minute snow blowing rate.

We took a look at the breadth of reviews this model gathered, and noticed that the power chute control seemed like a pro and that the gist of the reviews is that many people are surprised at how good it is at handling significant snow falls (including a 60-year old woman with bad knees who found it easy to use), but there are also others that claimed it couldn't handle their area's snow situations, let alone wet snow. Well, with cordless snow blowers, this all boils down to expectations -- they are not meant for hardened or wet snow nor extreme storms (in which you might have to add some old-fashioned shoveling in the mix), they are designed to be used right after the snowfall, and in less than a foot of snow.

Therefore, AlphaChooser bills the iON21SB-PRO as an Alphachooser interesting choice.

Despite extracting one of the lowest runtimes out of its typical 4000mAh battery, a mere 30 minutes rated time -- cordless snow blowers aren't meant to clear warehouse parkings anyway -- the Powersmart DB2401 garnered few reviews, but very enthusiastic ones, yielding an average score of 3.5 stars. One seeds-program reviewer at Home Depot even reported a longer run time: 45 minutes. Several reviewers who had out-of-the box issues also report a great customer service, one having had a replacement battery shipped the same day and another one saying Powersmart was "The best company they ever dealt with."

Specs-wise, the DB2401 sits in the same category as the Snow Joe ION18 with its 18-inch intake (by 8-inch deep), but claims a sizable throwing distance of 30 feet, with its chute being adjustable over 180 degrees. And even though we could not seem to find its actual snow throwing rate at PowerSmart, Home Depot apparently puts it at 5987lbs per minute (the auger rolls at 2200 RPM), a surprising figure, considering that other rechargeable snow blowers handle under 1000 pounds per minute, so we are left a tad confused, but we take note of the generally enthusiastic reviews from verified buyers.

All being said, the PowerSmart DB2401 ends up this month's race as an Alphachooser interesting choice.

It is frustrating that we cannot seem to know the pounds per minute rating of the 56V Ego Power Plus, but it seems equipped to measure up: The 7500mAh Battery power is higher than most other contenders in our best cordless snow blower list, its intake is 21 inches (by 13 feet high...), and the 35-feet throwing distance also beats most machines, so it must move a lot of snow for a single-stage battery-powered machine.

And the reviews seem to agree. We found a few Canadian users reporting that the Ego had no trouble handling snow falls of eight inches or could clear a few large driveways in less than an hour. The inevitable lower reviews (a perfect machine seems impossible in this imperfect world) reported cases of quality problems after a few weeks, potentially the usual isolated case, since there were still 95% of Home Depot reviewers that recommended the Ego (though many reviews came from the Ego website itself -- but fully-independent Amazon reviewers seemed in a similar mood).

Raw numbers, at the end of the day, get the final say. And it looks like our algorithm, after weighing its score its usual way , making this model a runner up.
