bought it brand new from Lowes in April of 2022 for the big storm and then used it last winter. Has electric start (plug it in) goes through pretty much anything has power steering. Don't have the battery charger so i just use a trickle charger to charge the battery for the EFI usually starts on first pull i also have the "cab" for it Looking to trade for a snow blower for my Husqvarna TS354d or an older mower with snow blower
