It's a super powerful blower, and feels very light for extended periods of time. I'm on a little over an acre, pretty densely wooded with a LOT of leaves. This thing chunks right through it. The tank gets about 2-3 hours of blowing more or less non stop. My only gripe is there are a lot of plastic parts that always feel cheap to me, especially on the handle. The throttle handle itself feels like it should be more lined up at the seem for a 580$ retail blower. Same with the plastic clips holding the throttle to the blower tube; a lot of plastic that could have been metal collars. The screws the fasten it to the blower tube also had some misaligned receiver bolts. Small gripe maybe in 2023.

Top quality blower that moves mountains of leaves. I had a small electric blower before moving to a rural setting along a wooded hillside and finding that useless! This blower is industrial! A bit heavy, but once you get it in place, the padded shoulder straps make it tolerable for lengthy use. Trigger is in a natural position and adjustable. Easy to start. Have to be careful around flower beds - it'll blow the topsoil right off the bed! Same with gravel driveways! But for moving leaves, it does the job!

I chose this model after extensive research online and I made a great choice. I really prefer the scouring power to move rocks, gravel, stuck on leaves, etc. I read on Husqvarna's website that to break it in you shouldn't hold in the throttle for extended periods of time until you have 6-10 tanks of gas through this. That's not hard to do I just pulse the throttle and if I have to hold it full throttle it's only for a few seconds at a time. The only thing I don't like are the exhaust fumes. I got sick the first time I used it because there was no wind. I actually purchased a 3m half face gas mask (7500 series) because the fumes were so bad. Overall I would recommend this to anyone.

Great blower for its value. Had the blower for over two months now and I'm very pleased with the choice. It packs a tremendous amount of power. My son works at a landscape business and he borrowed a blower from work for me to use one weekend at home, and I have to say that the one I bought equals in power for a much lower price. No issues starting it. You won't be disappointed if you choose this model.

A bit on the heavy side but that is to be expected for a blower of this size, I am impressed with the power and high air flow. Blows dry leaves much better that wet ones, again that is to be expected of any blower! So far so good, just hope it last for years for the amount of money that it cost. I recommend it for a property owner that has a rather large area that needs maintained.
