Do the YakTrax tear up a driveway at all...I know other brands do. Thank you!

I haven't had that experience with them. I've walked on lots of concrete surfaces with no damage done at all. Hope that helps!

this works like any pressure washer nozzle, but it rotates. If it isn't safe to use a pressure washer on your driveway you shouldn't use this one.That said, because it slides over the surface, it will be harder to move over the surface of an uneven driveway.

If it loose aggregate, defiantly will blast the stones out. If it is held together with an epoxy base as some of the old pool decks were. probably will work if the driveway is in good condition.

No. I have the same type driveway and, periodically you will pick up stone. The state plow mixes snow with stone and, that mess is at the end of my driveway. I assume the stone will age my snow blower much quicker than if I were on concrete.

Get hold of amazon. They will be able to get it from the supplier. I use mine on my UTV. it. Works great for snow removal and smoothing out the gravel driveway.

This scooper works wonders on all types of snow including the ice-chunked plow bump at the end of my driveway. We (south shore of Lake Superior natives) have had several feet of snow already this year - some fluffy and some heavy wet stuff. The scooper has handled it all with no sticking. It is unbelievably strong compared to the standard aluminum or sheet metal scoopers that I've had in the past.

I'm not sure of the answer, but if you go to their website and do the contact us link, they responded to my email question within 48 business hours and were very thorough. I definitely think they will be sturdier than yaktrax.

I live in upstate NY and have used this so far 2 times in snows greater than 6". I have yet to have a problem. Yes it does bog down in the wetter snow types and I am sure it wont throw it as far but it beats it doing it by hand. I can cover an old 100' driveway single wide in less than 20 mins. I can not adjust the depth other then paying attention to the angle I hold the handle. The real thick snow pushed there by plows at the end of my driveway did challenge this thing but slow and steady and you'll slice on through. The up side to this over the gas type is no maintenance, no up keep, not as heavy and a lot less $$$ I live in upstate NY and have used this so far 2 times in snows greater than 6".

Yea, this product would not be my first choice in your instance. They do have brushes that are effect (if your just wanting to clean it after use), but if its a problem while operating, I would suggest stopping the problem before it starts with an anti stick Teflon lubricant. I believe Ariens makes once specific for snow blowers and car undercarriages.

Good day Gregory and thank you for your question. Due to varying material for driveways it is unclear if this chemical can damage or stain. In my usage of this product I have not seen it stain my driveway. Although as with any chemical I recommend you rinse the area as soon as possible as the sun has the power to, "burn in" the chemical into your driveway.Hope you enjoy this product. If this answer helped you please let me know. Have a great day.

yes, the track drive system works great on a sloped, icy driveway. I've never seen a better blower for icy/sloped conditions.

I bought this but have not tried it out yet. I had another brand and really like the way it didn't kick up the dirt and mulch in my driveway and plant beds.

The trenches hook up allot in grass and dirt and don't seem to wear out. Also flip the car back big time. Witch is annoying. The badlands are excellent in gravel and harder surfaces then the trenchers. But they wear faster.

it all depends, they seem quite durable...I have a few lining a driveway, but can't say i've driven over them.

I also have a crushed stone driveway and it's not great on the driveway. The kids usually take it out on the road or to the park to ride them. I've watched them try to take them out on the grass and they end up having to push each other after they get stuck from time to time. But they still love to do it. My boys are 5 and 2.5 years and they absolutely love these go karts.
