Once you own a good power auger, you will never go back to a hand crank auger. They are worth every penny.
The key to prevent problems is full stabalizer. If you do not use fuel stabalizer, you are asking for problems.
After buying mine, I had problems with it when it got really cold. I started using fuel stabalizer and it runs great.
I do not believe there is any hand auger in the world, that
will keep pace with a power auger.
However, in defense of the previous poster, a hand auger is lighter, always runs and is great for new ice. i am probably going to buy a hand auger for a back up.
I own an eskimo as well.... Good luck
