What it's made for: drifts taller than the intake.
Two drift cutter kits close to it on our rating, each with a dated price.
What it has going for it
Part 390679. Blades that bolt onto the sides of the housing and slice the top of a drift taller than the intake, so it falls into the auger instead of over it.
The listing names part 390679 and MTD, Troy-Bilt, Bolens and Cub Cadet machines.
Drift cutters bolt to the sides of the auger housing, and the holes differ by model and width. Match the part number before you order.

Our take
The best thing about the ACTIVLIFE Drift Cutter #390-679 is blades for drifts taller than the intake. No buyer has reviewed it yet, so our 5.3/10 comes from the spec sheet alone. The catch with this ACTIVLIFE drift cutter kit: it only fits the machines it lists, so check your manual before you order. We'd pick it if wind piles drifts taller than your machine's intake; otherwise, put it next to the Duomimile 724069 Drift Cutter Kit first.
Before you order the ACTIVLIFE Drift Cutter #390-679, check your model number: it is sold as part 390679 for MTD and Troy-Bilt, and fit is model-specific.
Look for the plate on the frame, usually under the handle or behind the engine, and copy the model and serial numbers into your phone.
Your manual lists the part numbers and the steps. Our maintenance guide helps you plan the job.
Parts are easy to fit in a dry garage and miserable mid-storm. Our parts guide lists what is worth stocking.

We rate it 5.3/10 (fair). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

Its listing states blades for drifts taller than the intake. These are the seller's figures, not our measurements: whether it fits your exact machine is worth confirming first.
Your model number: look for the plate on the frame, usually under the handle or behind the engine, and copy the model and serial numbers into your phone.
