Not as powerful as it Looks!!!
I bought this for my son since he did not want one of the bulky blowers that i have, to use around the yard and to do a few yard clean ups! he wanted something lite weight! Now I'm not comparing this to a commercial blower! But i am to my old craftsman hand held! and I'm not a big fan of homelite products i would have went with a craftsman or ryobi for home use!.
But the price was right and so i figured i would give it a try!
No problems with the engine it starts right up. let it idle for a few. to warm up otherwise you'll choke it out,
It's lite in weight and the backpack has some advantages when doing large volumes but keep in mind also that if trying to use in certain areas you wont be able to get to them as good as a hand held blower because the blower is right handed! you can't bounce it around from hand to hand!. as for power I'm not impressed. i have a hand held that produces 180 MPH also and i feel that the hand held is stronger then this machine! and that only cost me $40 (used). it looks a lot more impressive then it actual is! A lot of people will look at this and think there getting what the big boys use at a fraction of the price! trust me your not. the only thing your getting is the backpack effect nothing more if you have a large yard it's worth the money if you prefer not to hold a blower!
For the money it's OK, if you want power buy a good used commercial blower or go with a hand held for less money, this machine is more show then it is go! (Keep in mind that this rating has nothing to do with the dealer i purchased the item from. they were great fast shipping and no problems.it's only an opinion on the blower itself!)

Great blower for the money
I read the reviews here and was a little concerned that this blower wouldn't run out of the box--or somehow, I wouldn't be happy...but, I am very pleased with this backpack-blower.

It looked brand new all over, started up and ran great. It puts out a good amount of air--similar to the hand-held Homelite blower I owned previously. The big benefit here is you have no fatigue and vibration or heavy weight in your arm while using for extended periods.

However, if you are looking for a commercial-grade backpack blower that puts out a hurricane of wind force, this unit may disappoint you. As I mentioned before, it puts out about the same volume and force of air as their hand-held unit. I use the blower for leaf removal in my heavily wooded backyard and it worked just fine for me.

Not a Bargain Unless it works
First 1 wouldn't run, died every time you gave it gas. Amazon replaced with 1 but it had broken parts when it arrived. The only good thing about these blowers is that Amazon stood behind them and refunded my money. Bad blowers, good merchant.

Great Blower... Great Price!
I desided to purchase this reconditioned (refurbished) machine when I saw the price, and am I glad I did! I've used the blower this summer to blow grass clippings off my sidewalks (I have a corner lot) and driveway. Basically a steady walking pace up and back and this machine makes quick work of the cleanup. I used it this fall to push leaves from beds, around trees, and away from the fence line onto the lawn where my mower mulched and bagged the leaves. Again, this blower made the chore almost effortless. I am very satisfied. The machine started first time, right out of the box, and being a backpack design, it's 16 pound weight easy nicely distributed and barely noticable. My machine came through looking like new, no blemishes and only a tag stating it's reconditioned.
