Around this area Pronovost is considered to be the premier blower. They're heavy, well designed, and well built.
Blowers do seem to be a shorter line type of equipment, even today.... so they have mroe local brands with localised followings.
Lucknow is a lighter blower that I also like. They probably don't have the life in them that a Pronovost will, but they still do a good job of blowing snow on a limited amount of power.

Personally, I have an ancient McKee SnoLander, and a larger Allied. I don't keep the 40 year old McKee going because it was poor.....The Allied is crap in my opinion. It needs an entirely redesigned blower fan because this one simply won't blow more than 10 feet, and it takes a pile of power to do that. Look for something with a good cup (concave) type blower paddle. That will hold and throw snow. The Allied has a convex blade and wants to force snow out the back before it goes out the top....

For what it's worth, Pronovost builds a lot of machines; many going into industrial applications. Downside is the expense.....
