Snow Joe 24V-X2-SB18 48V
48V cordless single-stage snow blower, batteries included · Reviewed by Drew · amazon.com live, Sept 24 2026
Why it scored a 77
The Snow Joe 24V-X2-SB18 48V is the budget cordless kit: two 24V 4.0Ah batteries, a charger, a cover and a scraper for $359.99, plus a 3-year warranty (78) on this TV1 bundle. Value scores 80. The trade-off is size: an 18-inch, 10-inch-deep path and a 20-foot throw are the smallest of the walk-behind blowers here, so features sit at 76. Satisfaction is 80 at 4.0 stars from 679 ratings, and reliability is 74, in line with that middling record. The SENIX STX2-M1 40V 21-Inch costs the same and does more.

Should you buy the Snow Joe 24V-X2-SB18 48V?
The Snow Joe 24V-X2-SB18 48V suits a buyer who wants to go cordless on a paved one- or two-car driveway without spending $649.00 on the EGO SNT2112. At $359.99 it ranks #6 of 10 in Snow Blowers. The SENIX STX2-M1 40V 21-Inch costs the same, clears 3 inches wider, throws 13 feet farther and scores 83, so it is the better buy unless you already own Snow Joe 24V batteries.
Where it earns its score
- Complete kit. Two 4.0Ah batteries, a dual-port charger, a weather cover and an ice scraper ship in the box for $359.99.
- Brushless motor. The 1200W brushless motor is rated to clear up to 14 tons of snow per charge.
- 3-year coverage. Snow Joe includes a 3-year warranty with this TV1 bundle, a year more than its corded SJ627E.
- Easy to handle. At 38.1 pounds it is light enough to lift up a step or into a shed.
What to know first
- Reliability is the lowest factor at 74. A 4.0-star average across 679 ratings is middling for a cordless machine at this price.
- Small path, short throw. 18 inches wide and 20 feet of throw mean more passes and more re-throwing than a 21-inch machine.
- Same price as the SENIX. The SENIX STX2-M1 40V 21-Inch is also $359.99 and scores higher on value, features and warranty.

The Snow Joe 24V-X2-SB18 48V scores 77, a Fair Buy, ranked #6 of 10 on Value (80) and Satisfaction (80). It is a complete cordless kit with a 3-year bundle warranty for $359.99. Buy it if you already run Snow Joe 24V batteries. Otherwise the SENIX STX2-M1 40V 21-Inch scores 83 at the same price.
