Bought this for my small back deck in the Eastern Sierra. czcams.com/users/postUgkxoHYZbq5g9fkcAtinlTqstNlje-UQkCHN We get A LOT of HEAVY snow so I was a bit skeptical but it was worth it! After the first storm of the year this has exceeded expectations! It throws snow very well, even 10-12” + that said the more it piles up the harder it is to maneuver the machine. It is exceptionally light weight and overall exactly what I was looking for. If you have a large amount of snow and a lot of area to clear, you may consider something with a drive engine to help maneuverability, but for decks, second stories, roofs etc, you can’t beat the light weight to great snow throwing ratio. Side note, the chute rotator is a bit flimsy and it initially didn’t seem to work, after a few uses it seems to have loosened up.
Love it my HS928 now over 17 years old, it is still a beast, in high snow love they way it just goes through it while I watch my neighbors machines stale and struggle to get into the snow
I live in New Hampshire and I have a 30 year old HS828 Honda. It has never failed to start (never more than 2 pulls) and it has never, ever broken down. I do regular service on it but I don't baby it. As old as it is, It can still throw snow across the road into my neighbors driveway. Never once has it clogged even with the heaviest wet snow. It is starting to make a little rumble from the auger assembly so this spring I will tear it down and rebuild it. If I ever need to buy another, it will be a Honda.
The Simplicity PRO series is actually what we here at the dealer consider to be the next step down because of it's PowerBoost technology. It'll never stop. It'll eat nails. It's a beast.
I've owned one of these for 12 years now. Never had a problem with it. The only thing that out works it is a bigger Honda blower. Hands down the best snowblower money can buy.
i have the wheeled version at work and it is the best...super reliable and..ive gone thru snow that was up to the motor deep and it had no problem...great machine.
Look at the rhythm of the snow coming out of the shoot. Can be seen good at 3:27 on. Its just like the exhaust from the Aurora aircraft with the pulse detonation when flying at mach 10. No longer is a large caliber gun the gauge for the size of a guy's manhood, its the size of his blower. Instead of a gun, you can just bury a deer and wait for him to suffocate. Matter of fact, I bet you can bring geese down with this beast. You should put the orange balls that are on power lines in your trees to warn aircraft to fly around your property before one is brought down from the rooster tail this monster produces. You da man, man.
When the snow gets that deep, you are supposed to use the tracks to FLOAT over the snow and take 9" 'CUTS' into the snow bank, one cut at a time. That way you can cut through snow drifts that are 6 feet or even deeper. That's why the tracks are so important because you cannot do that with a wheeled blower.
I have a 1990 HS 80 which is every it as good, maybe better...I just bought a new HSS 724 and my neighbour took the HS80...he'll probably get another 15 years out it.
I don't have a Honda Snowblower yet, but my research tells me that any of the ATD abbreviated ones (With a battery on board) come with the double electrically operated double articulated chutes.
All Atd don't come with that I have A hss928Atd u can buy the parts for the 1332atd and add them that's what I did costed me like 75 for parts easy install
Is this the same machine Honda started selling in the US this year? I bought one and am very disappointed it clogged so bad that I ended up putting it away and shoveling. This never happened with my old HS 929. Granted I only used it 3 times last year but again my old machine never cogged! I have heard that the US machines have a design flaw which causes them to clog.
Notice on your new one there is a 5" lip at the bottom of the chute opening. Cut it out so that it's like the previous gen HS928 and it will never clog again.
@@karatekid4984 your not the only one.. we listened to all the folks saying it was "a great machine" our first winter with it we blew a headgasket and used 2 friction discs. we have lake affect snow and hard pack snow. the ariens would no go thru it. i had to push and fight it or else it would keep do nothing else but spin.
it's cheaper in the long run, other brands are cheaper up front but you'd wear out 5 of those before 1 Honda. I've had a 928 for 5 years and all I've done is change the oil before every season, starts first pull even after sitting all summer. We had a craftsman 13hp where I work it didn't throw snow even close to as far as my 9hp honda and after 3 years the belts were done, all the bearings were falling apart and the gearbox for the augers was cracked.....it ended up going in the junk pile.
Why is your video so shaky? Naked, Coffee, DT's???? I have this machine with wheels HS928AW I have a Ariens Deluxe 824, Ariens 826HO and an MTD year 1995. The MTD in powder snow kicks all their asses as it is fast and light to move, Sucks at the end of the drive with salted melted snow and shoot gets clogged, The Ariens both of them kick ass all the time. Never clog never give me any problems other than normal repairs. Scrapes great an leaves the drives clean. The Honda is not worth the money compared to the Ariens. The Honda is full of power and blows incredible...BUT BUT the shoes are on the back suck. The scraper Sucks, and it is a Bear to move around. I am a big guy and strong and the HONDA is really a pain in my opinion. I have run them all the Ariens for over 20 Plus Seasons the MTD the same and the Honda for at least 10. So I know what I am talking about. And the ARIENS DO NOT RUST. The Honda's do. The Augers hit the ground if not adjusted properly. It is really to bad because the motor is a beast but pound for pound my Ariens with the OLD TECHUMSA's stays right with the HONDA in the power DEPT!

Funny thing about Honda blowers is everyone knows they are the best by far, no need to make videos to show it!
Great blower!
i realize Im quite off topic but does anyone know a good place to stream newly released tv shows online?
Now this is what Honda's were really designed for! Anything less is no challenge at all. (Honda HS 1132 owner)
right on....they are expensive but worth every penny...the high end ariens is the only one that comes close.

Is it weird that I love watching this?…
Tommy TMT if it is weird , I am quite a weirdo !
That is one hell of a forward throw. Nice job Honda.
Pound for pound the best snowblower ever made IMHO.
good point. some of the old 70's good ones were cast iron tractors in comparison
Awesome vid! Proud owner of a Honda HS1332TAS.
Just Ripping the shit out of it. Love me some Honda equipment because it works hard and last forever.
i have the wheeled version at work and it is the best...super reliable and..ive gone thru snow that was up to the motor deep and it had no problem...great machine.
Wow is that Honda SLOW in the snow. I would have thought the GX engine was more powerful but it is at its limit in this video.
I bought one, the thing quite literally is a tank (it had treads) and it is AWESOME!
I love mine and love to show your video what they are all about. Thanks nice vid
My favorite color is Honda red and that is a great example why!
Just bought mine today.. Used it all ready and works great.. 2015 hs928tas
My dream snowblower!!!!

30 feet up and into neighbors yard. Still great work video

+Honesty Counts i've blown snow that deep with my wheeled blower...had no problems just had to take it slow
POWDER, Good machine.
lol I buying one hopefully next week....

Almost had an or**sm watching that...it's soo cool !!
Nice snow blower but I think you have my problem of having to much area to clear. Takes forever.
Hey how did you get that thing with the double articulated chute?? I thought that only came with the 1332??
I don't have a Honda Snowblower yet, but my research tells me that any of the ATD abbreviated ones (With a battery on board) come with the double electrically operated double articulated chutes.

cabbie1106 .wigbird - Sweet! Thanks
Noticed you have a halogen bulb style light assembly for your Honda HS928. Was that also something you purchased and installed?

This never happened with my old HS 929. Granted I only used it 3 times last year but again my old machine never cogged! I have heard that the US machines have a design flaw which causes them to clog.
Maybe you should check the chute to see if it has an arm cut off stuck inside it.
Notice on your new one there is a 5" lip at the bottom of the chute opening. Cut it out so that it's like the previous gen HS928 and it will never clog again.
agree, this machine look weak. My electric Toro 18" wide would run circles around this!

its a beasstttt !
Nice video of your machine in action, check out my overview of my new 2016 Honda HSS1332ATD. Can't wait to make a snowblowing video!
thanks god for fossil fuel.
Too bad Honda charges so much for their equipment. But you get what you pay for so I guess it's ok.

Big deal. ANY snowblower can throw powder a mile. The real test is wet and heavy snow.

Ariens can't do that.
