I've had my unit for 3 years and its been great. One big thing is you do need to get a Vibrator, ice melt will clog if you do not have one. The controller has built-in functionality to accept the accessorie. Once I added the Vibrator the unit worked flawlessly.

Junk- Clogs up every time. The slots in the bottom are why to small for the rock salt to flow down to the auger, and the adjustable flow plate in the bottom makes it even worse. After getting ride of the flow plate and cutting the two small hole into one large opening seems to fix the clog problem. Next it occasionally jams (binds and won't turn at all). To Make matters worse the shipping company lost all of the hardware, wiring and controller! The seller has not offed a replacement item or a refund. I was confident this would be a good product because its made by BuyersCompany which makes Snow Dogg plows, and i must say there plows are of the best quality and work like they should.

Arrived with the parts hanging out of the box. Installed with particular attention to the instructions that came with. Went to turn it on for the first time and it just flashed a code "C" after a little research code "C" means to replace the controller. The controller cost $300. I talked to Amazon on the phone and they are sending a replacement but it's almost 2 weeks out. I'm happy they are sending a replacement but not happy I have to wait.

Best entry point homeowner spreader Buyers makes. Had several different models and this one works best. Be mindful of how fragile the spreader shaft is. It bends quickly and easily but fortunately can be bent back by hand relatively easily. Certainly not for commercial use.

The spinner shaft snapped off after only using it two times, otherwise it worked great until then. I am returning and requesting a replacement. Hoping that this one was just defective.

We received the first one and the shipping box was completely destroyed in missing all the wirings harness controller, hardware, and instructions. the spin plate and guard were bent and broken. We returned it for another one and this time it was properly packed. Install was easy and our first storm came and worked great. the next storm a week later and the motor shaft rod to the spinner plate broke off. We are returning it and upgrading to the TGS03. If this one breaks we are just going to try the competition
