It's a sturdy on carpet, not like the cheaper thin ones. It's worth the $$.

Man this thing is a beast. Plenty of power, quiet, battery lasts for my whole driveway and the sidewalks. I ran it about 25 minutes in fairly heavy wet snow (3 inches) and it still had one bar left on the battery. It doesn't throw wet snow very far, 5 feet or so but I don't think any single stage snow blower does. It's light enough to maneuver but solid enough to do the job. My sister-in-law has the 21 in, 80v model below this one and the 22 inch is definitely more rugged. The 22 inch model also has the rubber paddle. It handles small sticks and rocks. The 21 inch model has a plastic paddle and it sounds like it's going to ruin the paddle if you hit a stick or gravel. I can already see wear and tear on the 21 inch model. The paddle on the 22 inch looks fine.
I thought the lights were kind of a gimmick but they do a great job lighting the area if you are working after dark.

Protect your identity by safely disposing unwanted documents. The Insignia NS-S6CCBK2 6-Sheet Crosscut Shredder accepts paper, staples, paper clips and credit cards. Destroying six sheets per pass, it shreds documents into small, cross-cut strips, helping you protect sensitive information. It’s compact in size, so you can place the shredder on top of a desk to keep it close at hand. The 3.4-gallon bin holds shredded contents and is simple to empty. A safety interlock switch automatically stops the shredder when the wastebasket is removed, protecting you and your children from accidents. In case of a paper jam, a manual forward/reverse function makes it easy to remove unwanted paper. Now you can safely dispose of all your unwanted documents without worrying where your personal information will end up.

I usually only review items I like but I'm going to write this as a warning to potential buyers. The mat is too thin. The office chair wheels make dents in it, even when there's no one in the chair. When I sit in the chair, it really dents. Maybe it would work okay with thin carpet...really thin.

First off I need to say that I bought this as an opened box item. I think i know why now.
It was easy to load all my info on it. The screen is great. The microprocessor is fast. And the 16GB ram handled some pretty hungry programs like DaVinci Resolve for video editing and Protools for music/audio editing.
Now for the bad stuff. After five days it crashed and wouldn't come back without a complete system reboot, losing everything I had loaded. Unfortunately, I hadn't created a recover drive, my bad, so I was back to square one.
Then there were the audio issues. The speakers were so quiet I could hardly hear them sometimes and other times they were adequate... never good. When I plugged in headphones all I got was hiss, load hiss. I tried 4 different headphones. FYI All of the headphones work with other computers and devices. The final blow was when I had to put my ear right on the speaker to hear it, at full volume.
I took it to Best Buy and all of the drivers and hardware were up to date and "working". I returned it.
To close this review on a positive note, the staff at the Best Buy Store in Burbank, CA were great. Johnny (manager) took care of me. He got Felix (Geek Squad dude) to go through my Dell and recommended returning this one and looking for a replacement. Sergio (Sales guy) took time to really look over my options and needs. I walked out with another Dell. I haven't given up on Dell. I'll review it when I've used it for a while.

Is it self propelled?

Not self propelled but it's easy to push. Hint: Keeping a good pace keeps the exhaust shoot from clogging as easily in wet snow. Powdery snow is not an issue.

Does it come as assembled? Or do we have to assemble it?

You only have to assemble the handle. It's pretty easy, 10 min tops. The quick release handles were the only sightly confusing thing. A quick look a the finished pics and it makes sense. FYI Those handles are great. It folds up in a jiffy.

When you roll the scroll wheel is it loud? For example, does it make a noticeable clicking sound?

Nope, you can feel the clicking but no audible clicking.

What is the range on this mouse? How far away can it be from the computer to still function?

Your question made me curious. I walked 10 feet away from my computer and it still worked. I couldn't hardly tell what I was clicking on from that distance but what the heck, it worked.
