Product Overview
Take control of big snow jobs this winter with the Power Max HD 1232 OHXE with 375cc Toro Premium 4-cycle OHV engine. A 32 in. clearing width and 21 in. intake height can plow through the deepest snow and blow it over 55 ft. Ideal for concrete, asphalt and gravel surfaces. The innovative Quick Stick control allows you to quickly and easily change chute direction and chute deflector with a single, smooth motion. Convenient 1-hand operation levers allow single-handed operation freeing the other hand to change speeds or the chute control without stopping. Smooth, tight turns are a snap with self-propelled power steering. Hand warmers and headlights are standard. The exclusive Anti-Clogging System meters snow intake to reduce clogging and maximize clearing efficiency. No shear pins needed. Equipped with commercial-grade auger gearbox.

I upgraded my toro 726 to this machine. Most everything is the same just bigger and stronger. Heated grips, power steering and metal chute are the only difference. My old one was smooth running and could move chute easily while running. The new one is herky jerky metal chute is stubborn and requires stopping. I have used it several times and have made adjustments in the 3 months I've owned it. I will keep it dry in heated garage and spray the inside with pam, this will probably outlive me.

I feel like a kid whenever there is snow in the forecast. Great machine that is built to do the job and do it well. I am glad my old snow blower broke down and could not be repaired AND that my finance ministry told me we had the funds to buy a Toro. Always wanted to own one and pretty happy it works like I thought it would be. Had it for a month, now let's see how it works in a year...and after.

Customer review from homedepot.ca 
A wonderful product! Powerful enough to clear a 100 meter long driveway in 30 minutes. The electric start is a terrific feature. It is a large machine so a smaller person may have trouble moving it, but the drive system is easy to use once you get the hang of it. Very satisfied.

Only used three times but so far works great. Cleans bank left by snow plow with no problem.The deepest snow fall was 7" the blower walked right through with no problems.Starts easy,I was afraid 12hp would be hard to pull recoil but it is as easy as my old 8hp.

Customer review from Toro.com
Built like a tank but easy to maneuver. Share all the same parts with the commercial units except the handlebar. Even the engine is identical except a smaller bore.
I expect that this beast will last a very long time!
The only cons is that the chute control is little hard to work with. I would have appreciated that a half press on the knob release only the chute rotation and a fully press on knob release both of the controls, chute rotation and deflector direction.

Customer review from toro.com
Just purchased 11/28/2019 to replace my 34 year old JD TR26. I use to have wrestle the JD to turn; twisting my already bad back. This thing turns on a dime. Way more power, throws further. Just going to need to become accustom to the power steering feature. I would suggest improvement to power steering controls to be closer to the drive lever.
