I couldn't imagine having to share my house with 3 inch roaches, deal with hurricanes/floods on a yearly basis, and run 2 air conditioners just to keep the house livable.   ;D

You know, if I am guessing correctly on the mechanics of that thing, it may not be that bad... stupid looking, sure, but it's doing almost all of the work for you through springs and leverage.  There's a lot to be said for that at 6am when it's 10 below 0 and you haven't even showered yet.

The mechanics to lift the snow maybe.  I don't see any springs.  I was thinking more of pushing 26lbs worth of shovel through 4-8 inches of wet snow and then how do you dump it after lifting it.

ChadTower:

There could easily be a spring/stepper type mech that is black and next to the wheel axle... there could also not be one.  Who knows with such a wonky thing.

I'll stick to the standard shovel and/or snow thrower.
