Customer Reviews for ECHO 170 MPH 453 CFM 25.4 cc Gas 2-Stroke Handheld Leaf Blower

I really like it, works well, and suits me just perfect!

Cheap. Low quality, compared to the same blower.

The Echo Blower is a good choice. I had one just like this one that lasted me about 10 years.

It works great and is very light, it feels great in your hand as far as ergonomics, the speed seems a little slower than my old Craftsman, but far superior otherwise, very happy with my purchase

Ruins great and delivers the blow!

Blower is great for home use.

Powerful blower. Echo equipment is always high quality.

The blower is powerful and very easy you start.

Has some power but not quite enough.

Great value. Sick of dealing with the battery powered ones.

It works great the weight of it is good the lock in trigger is nice to have and it looks goodjust had it not even a month

Many people had trouble with 2 things; initially getting it started, and the blower tubes falling off. I had trouble starting it initially, even after finding the user manual, and following their instructions. The user manual could be better, and state the number of times to depress the priming bulb. Talked to a neighbor who has Echo products, who told me to fully close choke, pump bulb 5 times. Pull cord couple of times (until you hear it sputter), then go to half choke. Should now start within a pull or two! The second issue with the blower tubes…… I had them come apart, when the blower started, and idled for a few minutes. I took both tubes off the housing, and twisted it extra hard (got it halfway to fully twisted, looking at the marks on the tubes) - so far they’ve been holding together! The only other thing I noticed was the vibration when running (which probably contributed to the tubes coming apart). If you have any issues with numbness, tingling in your hands, I’d advise you try to insulate your hand your holding it with (with rubber gloves, or gloves designed to insulate, like Vibrastop), to minimize the vibration….. seems like it will be a good blower that will last forever; time will tell.

It does what it’s supposed to but not as strong as the other brand we had

Excellent leaf Blower.

My last echo lasted 7 years so I bought another one. Put the 50:to 1 mix in it and fired it up. Runs like a champ.

I am disappointed with this Leaf blower. It takes multiple pulls to start and the extended nozzle does not lock in and keeps blowing off. I have thought about returning it.
