I have a single stage and a double stage. I’ve used the double once in the last three years. I’d have been way ahead to just go with the single and hire somebody for the once every three years snowfall.
I have both as well (a gas 2 stage and a battery single stage I was gifted) and while there are times I think this, the end of the driveway snow from the plow always makes me glad I have the 2 stage. The single stage just can't handle that stuff, or the wetter snows.
