WORX WG461 40V Cordless Snow Blower, 20-Inch Clearing Width, Brushless Motor
Product description
Clearing a driveway after snowfall is more manageable when each pass moves a broad strip of snow and lets you direct it away from the path. The WORX WG461 is a cordless 40V snow blower with a brushless motor and a 20-inch clearing width. Its 10-inch intake depth and adjustable discharge help handle driveway clearing with control. Two 20V 6.0 Ah PowerShare batteries and a charger are part of the package.
Quick overview
The WG461 clears up to 20 inches wide and 10 inches deep in a pass, helping reduce the number of passes across a driveway. It throws snow up to 35 feet, and its 180-degree rotating chute and adjustable deflector let you choose where the snow lands. For a practical example, you can aim the discharge toward an open area rather than leaving a ridge along the section you have just cleared.
Power comes from two 20V 6.0 Ah PowerShare Pro batteries, which combine for the 40V snow blower. WORX states that the batteries can provide runtime to clear up to a 15-car driveway in 6-inch snow conditions. The PowerShare platform also works across WORX 20V, 40V, and 80V tools, giving owners of compatible tools another use for the same battery system.
Size & fit
The blower measures 20.5 inches deep, 39.4 inches wide, and 49.2 inches high. Its 20-inch clearing width suits driveway routes where a manageable pass width and directed snow placement matter. The handle folds for more compact storage, while its two height positions let you adjust the grip to your preferred working height.
Large 8-inch rear wheels and a balanced center of gravity support pushing and turning through snow. The rubber auger is designed to move heavy snow, and the ergonomically angled handle helps make the pushing motion more comfortable. These features are useful when a clearing route involves steering around parked cars, walkways, or the edge of a driveway.
How to use it
Charge and install the two PowerShare batteries, then guide the blower along the area you want to clear. Set the rotating chute and adjustable deflector to direct snow where it should go, the discharge can reach up to 35 feet. The unit also has LED headlights for visibility during early-morning or evening clearing, and it starts with a push of a button.
Unlike shovel-based clearing, this powered approach moves snow through an auger and chute instead of relying on repeated manual lifting. For a driveway, that means you can work in steady passes and control where the snow is deposited. Adjust the handle to one of its two height positions before starting, and fold it down after the job to make storage easier.
What to clarify
How wide and deep can it clear in a pass? The stated clearing capacity is up to 20 inches wide by 10 inches deep, so the blower is designed to move a substantial strip with each pass.
Can I control where the snow goes? Yes. The chute rotates 180 degrees, and the adjustable deflector helps set the direction and throw distance, up to 35 feet.
Can the batteries work with other WORX tools? The PowerShare system supports compatible WORX 20V, 40V, and 80V tools. The WG461 package includes two 20V 6.0 Ah batteries and a charger.
Buying verdict
The WG461 brings a broad clearing path, a 10-inch intake, and adjustable snow direction together in a cordless format. Its folding, two-position handle and wheeled design add practical details for driveway work and storage. It’s a well-suited choice for clearing residential driveways with controlled, powered passes, especially for shoppers who already use or plan to use the WORX PowerShare battery platform.
