Easy to use. Very powerful. You can even “round up” leaves with the engine idling
Great, very powerful, had it for about a year no issues.
It is a little thirsty but worth in for the added powe
I’m the grounds member at my golf club, this excellent piece of equipment is used on a daily basis to keep the greens clear of debris. A minor aggravation is the pistol grip moves left to right when in use, this was rectified locally. Excellent value for money highly recommended.
Only used it the once, so far, and it blew me away! Sturdy and does the job. Much more powerful that others in this price bracket.
Its a big blower, not too heavy though especially on your back. Powerful enough to even blow a small mound of wet leaves so that was welcomed.
Assembly is pretty straight forward although it did take me a few tries to get the tube right. Once the instructions are followed it started 2nd time.
Overall good stirdy product, lasts long enough to do big jobs and easy to use.
I’m from an agricultural background and this thing is amazing. Assembled in 10 minutes with relative ease and such a treat to throw on your back and use. A few reviews mentioned it was difficult to start but I have had no such problem. Fantastic company with a great design concept.
This was by far the most powerful Leaf Blower I have purchased and so easy to use – when you have got it started which does take some strength! I would always trust this brand and they have never let me down. A****
The style of the backpack is good and comfortable a little heavy but then expected, it’s surprisingly powerful, good controls, starts ok however the pull cord is close to a plastic cover watch you don’t catch your fingers (as I did ) plus it could do with a foot support to hold the machine when starting as not easy to hold machine and start at the same time … the blow pipes link together well however good luck getting the locking screws in (several attempts and still unable)
Fabulous blower! We have a shingle driveway surrounded by trees which has been really hard work clearing the leaves but i’m delighted to say this blower made really easy work of it. My 13year old son can easily do it its so easy to use. Highly recommended.
Very easy to use and very comfortable to wear the quick release is a very good idea just incase of emergency. Instructions are very clear and easy to follow would recommend to anyone using for business or domestic use.
Seriously good piece of kit. Very very powerful blower. Cleared almost an acre of wet leaves in no time. Nothing negative to say about this product and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality blower at the right price.
A solid blower which will meet most needs in the garden. Not the best strap comfort but frankly not unlike others. The strap needs a cross chest clip to stop it sliding from the shoulders. Please put one on and send me the upgrade. : -)
– Need to get used to the power it provides and how to get the leaves into a small area that I can do a final rake before picking up.
– Better with larger and dry leaves than wet.
– As a backpack it is comfortable given the weight.
– Only used it once will update after more use.
Leaving on one side Amazon’s black Friday pricing strategy which a week later sees a price drop of 40 odd this is a first class piece of kit. It’s comfortable and powerful. Even the idle setting is quite effective at blowing dry leaves and the full throttle setting would probably unblock your drains (don’t try this). So apart from the pricing fiasco very pleased.
On the con side in operating terms; if you are left handed like myself the machine is designed with a right handed person in mind and I found it awkward to use, however, with practise it may prove easier. The weight of the machine also came as a bit of a surprise. It must be double the weight of my old McCulloch petrol blower. It is certainly the most powerful leaf blower I have operated and would be very easy to use if I were right handed. I have dropped a star because I think there are feasible ways of making it left or right hand operated although it would cost more and be more complicated no question.
Well I have now been using it for 8 months. It runs beautifully. Does the work in less time, but in truth I still miss my old petrol hand McCulloch, so easy to swop that machine from left to right hand as needed to get into awkward places.
