Rated 3 out of 5 by product dependable but not enough power Product is dependable, starts easy but does not have suffient blowing power. Compared to Stihl blowers I have bought in previous years in the same price range this blower does not have near the blowing power and takes at least 20 seconds to reach maximum speed. I am disappointed, expected a blower with as much blowing power as previously bought Stihl blowers in the same price range. I feel power loss is related to government restrictions on air pollution from exhaust from blower. June 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Nice blower for the price Had a cheaper blower that only lasted about 1 1/2 years. Decided to buy a better product with a good warranty, from a dealer that can repair and service the unit if necessary. So far very satisfied. Starts easily and has nice power. More use and test of its ability in the fall when I have to clean up needles and leaves in the back yard from 26 trees. Very happy with the product! June 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Have Owned My Blower For Years - Looking for a Trimmer and Chainsaw and i'll buy Stihl I bought this for Father's Day (a gift for myself# a couple of years ago#. I use it every few weeks to blow out my garage and for assorted uses around the house #including clearing leaf filled gutters on my one-story house#. This baby starts every time with a few pulls. It has plenty of power. I debate my brother about whether the narrow nozzle or the round nozzle is more effective. I had another brand #name starts with M) which didn't last very long. I am now in the market for both a string trimmer and a chain saw. I know Stihl is the best for chain saws and I trusted the brand when I bought the blower. I was not disappointed. Super product.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Not what I expected I have owned this product for about a month now and considering returning it. I owned a competing model that was stolen and decided to try this brand. My two negative issues are ease of starting and time to warm up. Even though my model claims some sort of system for easier starting I have found pulling the starter cord to be far harder and jerkier than expected. My previous machine required little more than a flick of the wrist. Just yesterday I was on my knees pulling the cord and it locked causing me to almost fall on my face and the unit flipped on its side. Then there is the issue with, after getting the unit running, it takes a few minutes of rough running before it warms up to normal operation. The external temperature was above eighty degrees. My former machine warmed up in fifteen seconds on average. May 31, 2013

Rated 4 out of 5 by Easy start I love this little blower, very easy to use. My wife really likes it too! She can start it as compared to other blowers I had. My only complaint is the lack of a smaller end tip. This unit would be awesome if it had a narrower opening at the end so the air was more focused, I would imagine its an extra option, it should just be included in my opinion. May 20, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Insufficient power I was buying this to replace an old blower at my daughter's home. It only had two thirds the blowing power than the blower I own. May 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by easy to fuel easy to start, light weight, plenty of power Absolutely the best blower I've ever owned. The total ease of operating this equipment is far superior from any others I've owned in the past. Makes quick work of grass leaves and debris. I purchased the flat nose extension for even more power and direction. Four years of warranty with an oil purchase? That, you can't beat any where. Positively an A+ for me! May 1, 2013
