Detailed Review
The Greenworks 80V 12-Inch Cordless Snow Shovel provides a powered way to clear snow from walkways, steps, and small driveways without manual lifting. Powered by a 2.0Ah lithium-ion battery, it delivers cordless convenience for homeowners who already use or plan to invest in the Greenworks 80V line, which spans more than 75 compatible tools.
With its 12-inch clearing width, this tool throws snow out of your path to quickly clear narrow surfaces. It is designed to handle snow accumulation up to 6 inches deep, making it well-suited for routine clearing after moderate winter storms. The lightweight design also helps users push through drifts without excessive fatigue.
Cold weather battery management is the main trade-off with this unit. For peak performance, the battery needs to be kept at room temperature prior to use, as the snow thrower may not start if the pack is too cold. If it fails to turn on, you will need to bring the battery indoors for 10 minutes or more to warm up. Additionally, the listing does not specify throw distance, overall runtime, or weight in pounds.
Verdict: This cordless snow shovel is a great choice for property owners dealing with light snowfalls up to 6 inches deep who want the convenience of an 80V battery platform. If you need to manage deep drifts beyond 6 inches or cannot store batteries indoors, a heavier-duty solution may be necessary.
Who Should Buy It
A great fit if you:

- Already use or plan to buy other tools in the Greenworks 80V system

- Can easily store your battery inside at room temperature before use
Consider something else if you:
- Regularly experience heavy snowfalls deeper than 6 inches
- Need to store equipment and batteries in unheated outdoor sheds without warming them
