Murray 1695537 21-Inch 190cc 4-Cycle OHV Briggs & Stratton Snow Series Gas Powered Single Stage Snow Thrower

This is one of the best mid-range commercial snow blowers. The Murray name itself is often enough to convince buyers that they're purchasing a quality product and despite its lower price, this is a competitive model. The 190cc Briggs and Stratton engine will power the Murray through moderate snow without any issue, and the anti-clog feature on the chute does a commendable job of throwing the snow wherever you direct it.

Whilst it lacks the bulk and features of the more expensive models, the Murray is impressive for its size. It makes short work of snow covered driveways, it's user friendly, maneuverable and an all round solid machine. A great buy if you're looking for a budget priced blower.

Yard Machines 31AM2N1B700 21-Inch 179cc OHV 4-Cycle Gas Powered Single Stage Snow Thrower With Electric Start

The Yard Machines model is another example of the best gas snow blowers - it's powerful, impressive and easy to work with. The 180 degree chute gives more scope for snow throwing and the 10" impeller and 9" steel auger give it around the same benefits you'd get with a 2 stage machine - without the added weight.

Its 22" clearing width is pretty awesome, allowing you to chew through snow drifts at a quicker pace, and the polymer constructed chute prevents rust, clogging and freezing - which cancels out down time. It starts up easily, you don't need to mix the gas and oil and it's overall build quality is solid. A worthy buy based on its power output, reliability and ease of use.

Yard Machines 31AS62EE700 24-Inch 179cc OHV 4-Cycle Gas Powered 6-Speed Self-Propelled Two-Stage Snow Thrower With Electric Start

The last off the best snow blower list is the Yard Machines 24" model. This is a great purchase if you're looking for a thousand bucks worth of machine, yet your budget falls a little short. The 179cc engine produces plenty of power, which is obvious once you fire it up and set to work. The directional chute does its job well and the eight variable speeds (two reverse, six forward) offer plenty of scope and maneuverability. The 13" Snow Hog tires provide the much needed stability, no going off track due to the what you're working on.

The 24" intake deck is pretty impressive for its size and it's not a snow thrower that's known for clogging and freezing up. The control panel is within easy reach, you can set it in motion by way of an electric start and you don't need to mix the gas and oil. An all round mighty machine, big enough and solid enough to tackle some serious hard work.
