Echo PB-580T 58.2 CC Back Pack Blower with Tube Mounted Throttle, 510 CFMGY#583-4 6-DFG290107

I'm very impressed with this machine. I had borrowed my neighbor's Echo blower and was beyond satisfied with its performance. I decided to buy my own since I have a lot of leaf blowing to do. This one is even more powerful than my neighbor's unit. It is a little heavier I think but just wow this thing is strong. What took me 3+ hours with my old electric blower, and 1 hour with the borrowed Echo, took less than half an hour with this one. I'm not surprised at all, I have had lots of experience with Echo products. My first chain saw was an Echo that lasted almost 40 years cutting 2-3 cords every year. Currently also have an Echo weed eater and a newer Echo chain saw. Every one of them is very, very reliable and work exceptionally well.

I’ve had a Husqvarna backpack for 20 years. I recently borrowed my neighbors as I was out of gas and didn’t want to run to the store. I now have this in my shed. I couldn’t believe how much stronger it was than mine. Shocking powerful. It will rip up your grass and blow the rocks out of my landscaping if I’m not careful. It assembled easily and starts first pull. Very happy with this thing.

Easy to use and starts after two to three pulls.

Being a man I went right to the top of the line ECHO blower, the most powerful ever, it will blow over your windmill. But it was heavier and much louder than this one. I saw that this one wasn't much less powerful so I watched some videos reviewing it and watched it moved leaves, dry and wet and listened to the owners. I was pretty confident when I pushed BUY IT NOW and I haven't regretted it since. So much better to have the motor on your back, btw, you're just swinging around this light plastic tube so you're not killing your wrist/arm with all the weight there. I was avoiding any 2 cycle engines b/c I hate mixing the gas/oil, but there are 6 packs of oil from Echo that are exactly the right measurement that you just dump into the gas. Get yourself a 1 gallon gas can if you want it really easy. This blower considerately circulates air around your back so you don't get that sweat spot on your back. By the time autumn is over, it might even fix your posture.

I have had other small engine equipment brand names. But my choice will always be Echo. Echo has never disappointed me.

I've had this blower for a few months now; it's a pretty good blower. It drinks gas a little quickly but nothing to be truly detrimental about. The shoulder straps are fairly comfortable and the blower is a little large but nothing crazy heavy. It blows a lot of air...but my only complaint would be that I thought that it was going to blow a little HARDER. It move most leave/twigs without problem, I just thought that for the price that it would've blown a bit harder.

Outstanding! More than enough!!! Not using a rake ever again!

Great leaf blower. It does exactly what I need it for. Great quality.
