Receiver the blower in short order, put the two tubes together and filled it with ethanol free gas and the correct 50:1 oil ratio and one pull and it fired right up. I'm only had it for two days but have used it both day and one pull and you're off. I know it's a close out but a 249$ blower new for 89.00$ is a no brainier. 7 year warranty and did purchase the square trade 2 year for 6.99 just in case. Now that I have had it about 3 months I like it more every time I use it. Cranks up first pull and has amazing power for all applications. Highly recommend but do use the correct fuel. ALWAYS USE NON ETHANOL FUEL AND THE RIGHT MIX!!! I can't stress this enough with all power tools.

The Hitachi is awesome. It has been a great help in a large yard covered with a blanket of leaves. It even moves wet leaves. I can direct the leaves wherever I want them to go. I can lift them to make a huge or tall mound but the squirrels love those piles😊! I did have to change hands often from fatigue and the unit does grab your pants from the left side but just keep it away from your leg. I do have carpel tunnel in both wrists so that plays a part also. I love this blower and I use the ready mixed goil(gas&oil)😎 because it's easier and will store in the shed until the next year. I do recommend it highly!

This is a great blower. It is compact and light compared to other blowers I have owned. I wish they included a kit for mixing the fuel properly as that makes all the difference in how well these small engines run and several of my friends find it difficult to get the mix accurate... each and every time. The auto return power button is a nice touch. I use ethanol free fuel or premium if that is not available. Its starts easily and seems to be well made. I really cannot testify to it being more powerful than other blowers, but it does have a solid feel and sound to it. Time will tell, but I expect this blower to last me 20 years as did the last one.

I have had mine for about 4-5 years and it will not start this spring. The lines were damaged by ethanol in the pump gasoline (for cars) and residue is left inside the engine from that regular gas. Use only pre-mixed correct fuel and save headaches. The blower is loud enough to want small plugs in the ears and light enough to use on the rooftop to blow off plant stuff in spring and leaves in fall (Virginia). When using correct gas, it will start right up in a few cranks. Well-made !

This Hitachi blower has a lot going for it. 1) it's reasonably priced 2) it's powerful 3) it;s not too heavy and 4) it has the best warranty of any gas powered tool that I have ever seen. I hope that it provides many years of trouble free use,
