Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Power; Bad Starter Comment: After reading the previous reviews, then others, I was somewhat cautious. I had previously owned a Poulan Weedeater blower, and was very pleased with it. This one has more power, but the XX%$!$#@#$! starter pull mechanism failed on two consecutive machines. Had to return each one. The rope pulls all the way out, and does not retract. After sitting in a warm room, it gradually retracts, but not while standing outside watching the leaves pile up! Yes, I now have my third machine, and am drafting a letter to the CEO of Poulan to suggest that he has a serious design flaw in the rope pull starter. Maybe I got two lemons in a row, so good luck if you decide to purchase one. Were it not for this funky rope pull, I'd rate it a "5-star."
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good blower with minor flaws Comment: Lots of power to pile up the leaves but mulching with this is slow going. The impeller is soft plastic so when using the vacuum attachment you will need to avoid twigs and rocks that quickly grind down, crack, and chip away the blades. Switching between the blower and vacuum is not difficult but you will need a screwdriver. Although there's no cruise control, the unit is fairly light so long periods of triggering not really a problem. Also, the noise was low enough that I could use this while wearing headphones listening to music. Overall, nice power for moving leaves, but definitely not a dedicated mulcher.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great specs but not reliable! Comment: I bought this blower because it had the best specifications for blowers available in this price range. Air volume and air speed are 2 different things and both are important for good performance. I quickly learned that this blower achieves the rated 200MPH air speed only with the reducing nozzle attached.(look at the pictures closely). The nozzle makes the airstream rather small, which makes for slow going. It actually works better with the reducer removed. Overall, performance is pretty good for the money but reliability is another story. My unit was hard to start from day one. Once warmed up it would restart fairly easily until it got TOO warm, then it wouldn't start at all! Not very convenient if you make your living cutting grass and doing yard clean ups as I do. (I used this small blower just to clean off driveways after cutting)I had to carry my big backpack blower around as a backup for when the Poulan wouldn't start.
The last straw for me was when the pull cord broke...and that was after only 3 months of use!
To sum up let me just say "you get what you pay for". Spend just a little more and get a blower that will be reliable. Ive had good luck with both Echo and Tanaka products and will stay with these brands in the future.
Customer Rating:      Summary: gas blower vac Comment: Works very well. Does all that I wanted it to. Attachments could better attach--sometimes come off when I'm using them.
