  1. I was in Erie this winter and we're planning to go back! I actually used to own a Husqvarna dealership (I had an Ariens 28", myself), I will have an EGO 2 stage, but don't use it anymore since the Snowbot. I'm guessing that's about 2 feet of snow...that's what we faced in our last test in Andover, MA on 01-29-22. The Snowbot handled it really well, but it was also dry snow (a lot of it). I had no problem keeping up with the storm, even during the 2 - 4 inch per hour periods. We are improving the performance in wet snow for the retail very launching soon (actually we're improving a lot of things). As for someone stealing it...first when you lift it up past a certain point an alarm will sound. Second you will get notified via the app if the Snowbot leaves your property, this is done via GPS. Lastly you can follow your Snowbot for a very long period of time (days), even if someone turns off the main switch or hits the "emergency button", so you call the police, provide the location information and have it recovered. The alarm should really be enough to scare most thieves away though!
  2. Hi Guys, Ken Kohlmann here from the Snowbot. This was an early video that was made from by a commercial video company based in China where the unit is manufactured. We're actually moving our headquarter's to the US and we've done extensive testing here so far this winter. We have 80 beta units spread out across North American and recently testing the Snowbot S1 (beta unit) in the 2ft blizzard that his Boston, MA. It did great! We take the approach that although the unit can take in 12" of snow at a time in a single pass, the idea is to run it often (every 4 or 5 inches or so). This way the snow never gets a chance to freeze and the Snowbot works through the storm keeping your driveway clear. As to the weight of the unit it comes in at about 145lbs, we're actually looking to lighten it up a bit. Because we're taking the approach of working through the storm, it's the same idea behind robotic lawnmowers (micro-mulching). The retail unit will have some improvements, but our beta unit really impressed us in this last storm and the retail unit will also include a wireless docking station. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask. We're absolutely slammed with questions and interest at the moment. That being said, if you have a question, ask away and although it may take me a little while, I will make sure we answer every question that comes our way! Thanks, Ken
