Cub Cadet offers a full-line of snow throwers with an extensive range of features and smart solutions to handle whatever winter throws your way. With such a wide range of products, it can be tough to determine which option best fits your needs. To find your ideal match, consider the property size, typical snow accumulation and product benefits.  Also keep in mind those products that offer exceptional value; the 221 LHP, 526 SWE and 528 SWE, were all designated a Consumers Digest Best Buy.

Single-Stage Snow Throwers

The single-stage snow thrower provides superior quality and performance for tackling smaller jobs like sidewalks, walkways and driveways. This compact and lightweight workhorse is a great choice if you need optimal maneuverability, typically get light-to-moderate snowfall and you're short on storage space. Cub Cadet's models feature a 21-inch clearing width and 13-inch intake height. Additional features to look for to improve your experience include:

• High-performance auger-assist drive system specially designed to quickly move through light to moderate snowfalls with ease, allowing you to clear your driveway with less effort
• Remote chute control allows you to accurately control from the operator's station where you want the snow to be thrown (feature found on Cub Cadet's top-rated 221 LHP model only)
• In-dash headlight provides flexibility to clear your driveway whenever you want, day or night (feature found on Cub Cadet's top-rated 221 LHP model only)

Two-Stage Snow Throwers

Perfect for clearing deep snow, slush and ice from driveways or gravel paths, two-stage snow throwers utilize two mechanisms to break-up the heaviest of snow and propel it through the discharge chute.

These tough, easy-to-use machines are an ideal choice for homeowners looking to clear large areas and difficult terrain. Cub Cadet offers two-stage snow throwers ranging from 24-inch to 45-inch clearing widths, with several innovative and exclusive features you don't want to go without, including:

• Zero-Turn Posi Steer™ power steering with fingertip trigger controls for effortless, single-hand turning (standard on select models of Cub Cadet's 500 Series and all 700 and 900 Series two-stage snow throwers)
• COOL BLUE™ skid shoes help your snow thrower glide easily over any surface, won't rust and won't scratch surfaces
• Single-hand chute control for effortless change of direction and pitch
• Heated hand grips for ultimate comfort in the cold (standard on select Cub Cadet two-stage snow throwers)

One more critical factor to consider when making the right snow thrower purchase – the warranty. Cub Cadet offers the industry's best three-year limited residential warranty and one-year limited commercial warranty on all its snow throwers.

With so many great products and the industry's best warranty, it's easy to find the right Cub Cadet for the job. To make your purchase even easier, Cub Cadet will be offering several early-season, high-value SnowPros sales events.
