That's 5KW for fairly small area (less than 12x12 ft). Your normal outlet can't support that (you need 240V because of so much power). I would argue that only well-offs can afford that.

Considering the thing itself is $1200, yeah. You could also buy a decent snowblower for that, or a lifetime supply of salt.
