Query: Works...but for what purpose?

Several people really seem to like this product, so I guess there's a niche somewhere. I understood when I bought it that it wasn't going to replace a $400 snow blower, but I was disappointed in how little it can actually handle. It can handle about 4 inches of POWDERY snow. Once the snow settles and hardens a little, this device gets overwhelmed.If you have a serious back condition, I guess this might make sense, since you don't have to do the shoveling motion. But it is VERY limited in what it can handle. I didn't attempt to return it because it does function and the shipping would be prohibitive...but I regretted this purchase after its first use.
