   I have had the opportunity to use my new blower 3 times now and it is so easy to start I have not had to use the electric start yet and one morning there was a minus 28 degree wind chill! After getting used to running it, I actually enjoyed doing the drive and sidewalks. I highly recommend the 21 inch electric start model to anyone who is contemplating buying a new snow blower.

   It may appear to strange that I gave a 5 star rating with the title I used. The point I'm making is that the 2100 is the bottom of Troy's line of snow throwers with a very good price when compared to other brands. One should not expect it to perform like a 2 stage unit.
   
   I purchased it in 2007 for the moderate Virginia snows. In 2008 we moved to Ohio and it is now in its second winter here. It will clog with wet snow. Tilt the front up a few inches and let it drop and it should clear. (I hope I do not have to say that you do this by pushing down on the rear handle.) The use a little WD40 or silicone spray in the shoot before each job goes a long way to alleviate the clogging. The unit is not self propelled. Even though the tines can pull it through an inch or two of light snow, human power is needed. I just put my weight behind it and it goes. The rubber tines have held up well on my cement driveway and sidewalks. We live on a corner half acre lot so we have a good amount of sidewalk.
   
   I've used pull start a few times with no problem, starts on the first pull when hot, and the electric start has been flawless.
   
   The bottom line for me is that it works for what it is. You have to keep ahead of the snow and can't wait until you have 8 or 10+ inches before you go out. With a light/dry snow it throws the snow more than half the width of a 3 car driveway. With a wet snow no. Otherwise pay more to get more.

   Purchased this the day before large snow fall was predicted in VA. Never owned a blower before, my wife prompted me to purchase she said I did not need to be shoveling. After the first use in a 21 inch snow I was more than satisfied with the performace of the Squall 2100. Started up with ease, performance in snow was awesome for such a light weight, easy to store machiine. I have a 4 car driveway, sidewalks and patio which I cleaned twice during the storm, only took an hour each time. Easy to use, highly recommended, strong engine, I expect many years service out of this blower

   Next door neighbor gave me the thrower in exchange for doing his driveway. We have had 4 good size snow falls so far and I have done 5 driveways and sidewalks each time. I only had to fill it once in those 4 snowfalls. This machine did everything I asked of it. It is easy to use, starts every time electric or pull start. I even let my sons use it to try and make some jobs on the side.

   Bought my 21" Troy-Built Squall in October 2002, after finally having a paved driveway...living in SW Pennsylvania brings 40-50 inches of snow in an average year...usually 4-6" (sometimes 6-10") at a time, but my Squall does a great job every time...have had several 6" snowfalls this year (2013-2014) and the Troy-Built handles my 20'x50' driveway in less than 30 minutes. The electric start is an added plus. Have never had any trouble with this machine...not even one repair...still has the original drive belt...highly recommend this Troy-Built machine!

   Very happy with snow blower this past winter. Had no troubles with all the snow we had here in the Northeast. No troubles with drifted snow either.
