Like lawn tractors, there are only a couple manufacturers making them for several brands.
26" should be plenty, 200-300cc is plenty, two-stage is a must
Electric start is no big deal (like modern lawnmowers they start first pull), but most have them
You don't need to pay for a tracked version unless you have steep inclines or a regularly occuring ice problem
You're probably going to spend $600-650
Some have power turning, if you or your wife don't like to 'manhandle' a 200lb snowblower at the end of each pass, that might be nice. Some have lights, but only you know whether that's necessary (street lights? house light?)
We did the research and bought a Husqvarna-made Craftsman. Love it
