Both SnowPeeler models clear snow from your roof while you stay on the ground, with no ladder. They share the same tapered aluminum cutting frame, braces, glide pads, drift cutter and reversible frame adapter. The main difference is reach: 20 ft (6 m) for the Classic, 30 ft (9 m) for the Premium.

Choose the Classic if…
- You're clearing a single-storey home, a detached garage or a cottage.
- You want the lighter model: 9.3 lb (4.2 kg).
- You'd like to keep the option of adding reach later: the 10 ft (3 m) handle extension kit brings the Classic to 30 ft (9 m).
Choose the Premium if…
- Your house is larger or some areas of the roof are hard to reach.
- Your roof has a low slope (4/12 or less) or roof valleys. On a low-slope roof, you need to stand farther from the house to keep the frame parallel to the roof, so the extra reach helps.
- You'll often work more than 20 ft (6 m) from the roof: the included curved handle adapter keeps the frame in contact with the roof.
What about refurbished models?
Both models are sometimes available refurbished. Refurbished units are inspected and tested before resale and have the same 2-year warranty as a new SnowPeeler.
