My steel catches all the big cracks... I paid $30 for that SOB. The only thing it's missing is that top T-handle.

Cutty. The difference being if you are good with a rubber single you won't have to do the shovel follow up.

Either way for most people a single stage is good enough.

As far as shovel operation. Well it will glide over some and catch other that are sticking up more.

Like I said, unless someone has driven over it and packed it down, I don't have to follow up with a shovel either. Scrapes it right down to the concrete, and my 30" can move some snow!

Lets see a single stage do ANYTHING with this!

I've done that and much more with a single stage small ass push toro for 15 years about. Shit was was hell. That's why I broke down and bought my big two stage self propelled Arians.

Luckily, I have two year old sidewalks. The cracks are uniform and easy to glide over. The rest is asphalt. So no cracks to worry with. I'm gonna go with the 30" pusher
