I was given one about that size years ago, but a Honda.
Great for throwing light, fluffy snow under 12" deep, which is arguably pretty easy to shovel anyway, but less satisfying I suppose.
Utterly useless with wet, heavy snow, which is what sucks to shovel, too.
I used it for years to clear my deck which is ~800 sq. ft. but the last few years, I’ve been shoveling it because it’s a good workout, and I can Tom Sawyer the kids into helping.
But hey, free is free! It’s a nice tool to have for free.

I “inherited” my dad’s snow blower, chipper/shredder and rotor tiller when he and my mom moved into a villa with an HOA that takes care of the lawn & snow removal. The chipper/shredder has had a good bit of use lately, getting rid of garden plants at the end of the season, and mulching the leaves for future use on said garden. Free power tools are always great.

If it’s this, it’s awesome. It starts every time. Its 1/4 the time of shoveling.
My neighbor has a monster two stage, mine will match it in dry snow up to about a foot. The old two strokes rock!

I have the exact same one, my dad garbage picked it for me. It needed a bit of work to get going, but it does a great job.

When will it grow into an adult snow blower? The one I use is a full grown adult.
It has 4wd with a locking rear differential, & a hydraulic shovel.

This looks like the exact same model my father has, if it is, as long as the blade is in good shape it will throw anything and everything, including slush that’s mostly water right down to the pavement on the first pass. It’s only real weakness is that it’s limited to 12-18" of snow at a time and the blade is rubber, so it’s only good for a few seasons before you need to get a new one.

Haha, I would clear my whole neighborhood in like 5 minutes with that monster... which would be handy if I liked my neighbors!

Yeah, my drive and walkways are small enough that I don’t really need one, but it’s hard to beat free and running!

The blower is not that huge, if only 48" wide. It can move lots of wet heavy snow like it’s nothing.

This one seems to be gas-tight for now...

This one is perfect for you then. It’s small and light and easy to store. I have a long driveway and a lot of sidewalks (corner lot), and it does me just fine.

Hoping for plenty, since I finally broke down and bought a sled this summer! Enjoy my PotatoCam barn snap:
