Snow Blower Module Gen 2 (Y Series)

I purchased my Yarbo core and snowblower in late October 2025 and set it up in early November. Overall I was satisfied with the performance over the winter and would rate the machine as a 7 to 8 on a scale of 10, although there were several hiccups along the way.
• Specific delivery instructions provided to Yarbo at the time of my order were not followed. They did eventually compensate with some Yarbo points to help minimize the issues that resulted.
• The packaging and marking of parts and tools used for assembly were both very well done.
• The written assembly/setup documentation that came with the product often conflicted with the on-line information, leading to frustration, several calls to Yarbo, and wasted time.
• The core unit had a track failure in mid-January. Yarbo diagnosed the problem and sent a refurbished unit. The refurbished unit had several problems, and I reported to Yarbo that I did not believe it was properly refurbished. As with the original setup, there was a lot of wasted time getting the unit going and I had to make corrections that, had the unit truly been refurbished properly, would not have been necessary.
• The guidance on how often and how much grease to use on the tracks has been less than definitive. Different bloggers and Yarbo staff report varying answers. And, while I understand the need for this maintenance procedure, it is a pain to perform during cold winter temperatures. The need to perform this all summer long is also one of the main reasons I decided against purchasing the lawn mower attachment. In my opinion Yarbo needs to come up with a different system using a traditional grease zerk so that a grease gun can be used.
• The snowblower is powerful and definitely saved me a lot of work. I have watched a lot of the posts that seem to show people’s Yarbos blowing thru 10 to 12 inches of snow. I have not felt that my unit would do that, as at 6” it seems to be working at its limit.
• I have three comments regarding the actual clearing of the snow:
o Yarbo often tends to “push” the snow while it is blowing, so that when it comes to making it turn it leaves berms, sometimes rather large ones if the snow is deep. These either need to be manually shoveled, or I need to re-run Yarbo over the entire driveway.
o Related to the above comment, I think Yarbo can come up with a better more efficient algorithm for how the unit turns.
o I was never able to get Yarbo to effectively clear the bottom 4 feet of so of my driveway – where it meets the street at the depressed curb section. Even if I send the unit out right after the snowplow goes by, it just cannot get the snow removed. I have had to manually shovel that snow, which is a pain as it is typically deeper and heavier than the main driveway.

It’s best of the best product i have used, and excellent customer service.

Snow in April? Classic Alberta. Good thing Yarbo handles every season — even the ones that show up uninvited. Switched to snow blower mode without a hitch and cleared everything effortlessly. This modular system truly delivers year-round. Love it.

As a two-year user, I’ve been impressed with Yarbo’s robotic yard system. The snow blower handles my 4,500 sq ft driveway effortlessly, clearing 2-3" snow with ease (though heavy wet snow can clog early season). The lawn mower maintains my 1.5-acre sloped yard perfectly, cutting twice weekly. Module swaps are straightforward, though some weigh 45-65 lbs.
Yarbo keeps improving—quick hardware replacements, frequent software updates (like remote control via app), and great support. The full package includes everything: Core unit, battery, modules, chargers, and tools. While not for extreme conditions (20" snow or overgrown fields), it’s perfect for maintenance. After two years, Yarbo saves me hours of work and keeps my property looking pristine. Highly recommended!
