Backpack Leaf Blower, 2-Stroke Engine 665CFM Air Volume 1.7L Tank Leaf Blower 63CC Gas Powered Leaf Blower Snow Blower for Lawn Care, Road Cleaning (Orange)

So I just have a long drive and a little bit of a neighbor's parking lot that I keep clean due to the leaves from my tree. Other than that I really don't have much need for a blower. But I finally broke down and bought one, and I couldn't be happier with this purchase! Even though the directions included are very basic it's pretty simple to figure out how to put it together. I did see the previous person who complained about the hard to find bubble to prime it. So that was helpful, FYI if you don't see that review it's on the bottom of the carburetor and you have to pump it until you see the fuel move through. I used the fuel ratio of 25 to 1 as recommended and it started right up after only a few pulls. It has more than enough power for what I need it to do. I just used it for the first time so I'll come back and update if I run into any problems but as of now it looks like it's a pretty decent machine for a great price.

Really blows, in a good way. Blows harder at an idle than our battery powered blower on full. Not heavy at all. Well put together.

This is a great blower at a great price (if you can overlook the terrible instructions)Pro'sGood design/good lookingLots of blowing powerRuns goodStarts easilyLight weight and comfortable to wear on your backHas a throttle lock to keep your hand from getting tired during long useNot too much assembly - put together in about 10 minutesComes with a oil/fuel measuring and mixing container (must mix 2 cycle oil with gas at a 25/1 ratio)ConsTerrible instructions. They actually call it a "2 cycle hair dryer"! LOL Probably used Google translate or something like that for the manual.Throttle lock got stuck the 1st time I pushed it in. I had to dissassemble the hand throttle, realign the throttle lock cylinder, give it a squirt of WD-40, and reassemble (only took about 10 minutes). It worked fine after that.Primer bulb not easy to find. I would never have even known it was there if I had not read the manual.Fuel level difficult to seeThere were a couple of moulded plastic pieces that I never figured out what they were for. Not referenced in the manual.Summary:Overall, this is a great blower at a fantastic price($130 at the time of this review). If you can overlook the badly translated instructions, you will be pleased with this unit and it's value. The only thing I think I should expand upon is the fuel mixing because it was not very clear. There was a confusing insert that talked about multiple mixing ratios leaving you wondering which ration to use. The actual mixing ratio is 25/1. The included mixing container will help you to mix the correct fuel/oil ratio.To mix oil/fuel, take the 2 lids off the mixing container. There are 2 chambers in the mixing container with a small connecting tunnel at the top. Fill the smaller chamber to "10" with 2 cycle oil. Fill the larger chamber to "10" with gasoline. Put the lids back on. Tilt the mixing container so the oil drains into the gasoline chamber, and shake to mix. Pour the mixed oil/gas into your blowers fuel tank, and your ready to start.To start the engine, pump the primer bulb until you see fuel going through the clear fuel tubes (about 5 or 6 pumps). The primer bulb is on the bottom of the carburetor. It's location is not obvious-you will have to look for it. Pull the starter cord to start the engine. It usually starts in about 4-5 pulls. If it is cold, you may need to use the choke lever. Once started, you will need to turn off the choke right away as it will not run with the choke closed.

This blower is nowhere near the power advertised. Straps are made for a kid. After using the blower for roughly 15 minutes, it just bogs down and eventually dies. Obviously very cheap made but I was expecting this due to the price. Says no returns either, I wonder why? Good luck if you decide to give this blower a try.

Definitely worth every penny. Plenty of power and easy to use also like weight.

Put it together went out mixed up the fuel 24 to one like they claimed. Didn’t even prime it fired right up after two pulls, works great! So far no issues. I did do a little bit of a carburetor adjustment and oiled the air cleaner. Would like to get a little bit more RPM out of it, but I think the main jet is a little too small to do so. Sounds like a pit bike when it’s running.

While I had high hopes, it definitely fell short. It came packaged nicely, easy assembly and started in the first couple of pulls.I had high hopes for it. But the reality of it is that it is just not that powerful. This is about half as powerful as my Stihl Strait shaft attachment. Airflow is lacking for sure.Back pack straps are too short aswell. Not comfortable with short straps. I had to add to them.Not all bad though. It does seem to be built well and starts right up. 2/5. Would be 5/5 if it moved more air and had longer straps.

This blower definitely has power for the $$. I ran it with 25:1 ratio for a few hours to break it in and switched to the standard 50:1. When it runs it is great, but I find when I stop it will not start back up ?? Then when it is cool the next day it starts right up ? I have refilled gas while running to keep it going till the job is finished, weird. For the money I guess I will live with it. Also tough to see how much gas is in the tank given the tank location.
