1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your time...   November 17, 2008
We received the backpack blower, followed the instructions and it was almost impossible to start. Finally got it started and it idled but every time I tried to accelerate it would die. I did everything according to the instructions and obviously there was a serious problem with the product. Very poor quality control. Contacted Amazon and this item cannot be returned so they credited my account. I went ahead and ordered a Ryobi reconditioned unit... received it and no manual, no instructions. Did get it started, idles great but it has such a bad vibration that after using it 5 minutes my right hand was numb and my lower back was numb. Called Amazon to inform them of the poor quality of these remanufactured units. They were very nice but there was nothing they could do. I now have it at the shop and a driveway full of leaves waiting for the repair. I won't make this mistake again. It's been almost a month since I originally ordered the first backpack blower. Don't mistake, Amazon handled this fine, but the product was not what it was advertised to be in good working order.


1 out of 5 stars leaf blower   October 28, 2008
The product is still in the shop. It would not start out of the box. It probably will need a new carburator according the Homelite distributor. In general, it has been very discouraging.


3 out of 5 stars Gas lines reversed!   October 21, 2008
As others have stated in reviewing this blower...the gas lines were reversed even though it was suppose to have been checked out as a factory reconditioned blower. However, it would not stay running and the priming bulb would not prime. I had to take it to a factory authorized repair shop to have the lines reversed. Also the throttle trigger has a button that is suppose to lock the throttle fully open in order to start the blower...it needed to be repaired as well. Once the shop repaired those items which were still under a one year warranty...blower works great! Just a HASSLE that these items were not truly reconditioned at the factory and I had to be responsible to suggest the needed repairs at my local shop. Amazon was excellent with with fast delivery...just faulty product.


3 out of 5 stars Very Light weight but performs A-OK.   October 4, 2008
Smaller than a pro model but compared to the cost of a pro unit it performs as expected.


4 out of 5 stars Back Pack Blower   September 29, 2008
So far so good. For a supposed reconditioned item (it looks brand new) I'm completely satisfied. Took a little bit to figure out how the straps are oriented (still don't think I have it right) but its a heck of a lot easier to walk around my property with the think on my shoulders/back as opposed to flipping from one arm to the other
