Using the Echo PB 251 Blower at my Grandparent's House

[BaseballFreak1468]

This blower is awesome. ALWAYS starts in one pull and is very powerful. Would definitely buy again

echo comes with a 5 year warranty, stihl somes with 2 years. the blower must not be too heavy if he was able to blow all his edging with 1 hand and record with the cam

i am thinkin about buying this blower......

i read it and seems very good.....

i would like your opinion....

and is it too heavy????? much appreciated

[mifan93]

yup!!!! i got it and its a blast to use and does verry well!!!!!! powerful and pretty light when you use it!!!!

no cords or anything!!!!!!

[LaZyLuKe25]

it is the best hand held blower avialable and if you ask me its is cheap for only 170.00

[mifan93]

im havin problems with it now.

i have only had it for like 3 months

its either carb or fuel filter and it barly starts and with that i broke the pull cord trying to start it.

its not made for many repeatedly pulls like i did.

but im going to send it back because it came with the 5yr war.

when i first got it it was GREAT!!! but idk...just a faulty one

@LaZyLuKe25 Its not the best available. the STIHL BG 55 is only $149.99 and it has a two ringed piston unlike the lousy 1 ring piston that echos have. And it is lighter, more fuel efficient, and more powerful. It kicks out 140 mph, or 386 cfm. Unlike echo pb 251 which only kicks 342cfm bud. So, its OBVIOUSLY NOT THE BEST HANDHELD BLOWER AVAILABLE.... bud.

@Mightylite94 you need to get your facts straight, the output specifications you listed for both the pb250 and the bg55 are incorrect. Also air output cfm and speed are not interchangable, they are two different measurements so saying 140 mph OR 386 cfm is incorrect. The echo puts out 390, not 342 cfm (cubic feet per minute {air volume}), and Echo 1 ring pistons are not lousy, they're just designed and made differently. Furthermore, no blower is OBVIOUSLY the best because BEST is an opinion.

That seems like a good handheld blower
