![]() Let OPE Reviews help you expand your knowledge. What’s more, the batteries are part of EGO’s ARC series, meaning you can use them across their 56V tool platform. That said, $699 is the kitted price (LBPX8004-2), which includes the blower, two 56V (6.0Ah) batteries, and a charger. In our tests, we ran this blower on turbo for 26 minutes, and we still had one bar left on the batteries. Its performance is excellent, especially when blasting away at heavy leaf coverage.Īs a matter of fact, we can also confidently say that EGO is not overstating it when they refer to the LBPX8004 as commercial. We can say that with confidence because we’ve run the heck out of it. So, when we assess which model deserves the designation of best backpack leaf blower for the money, we consider price but within the broader context of quality.Īnd the LBPX8004 is a fantastic blower. Sometimes the cheapest products are precisely that … cheap. The best anything for the money isn’t necessarily the cheapest. However, wait until we explain the method behind our madness. We’re going to start out by saying that the price tag looks high. Even so, we still think this is the best commercial backpack leaf blower around, and it has a large dealer network for service after the sale. While it starts easy, blows hard, and runs forever on the 2000cc (over 1/2-gallon) fuel tank, it retails for around $699.99. Take my money!Īnd that might be the only downside to this blower. Yes, you heard that correctly-you can start the blower while wearing it. Rather than having to take the blower off your back to pull the cord, a quick pull of the side handle overcomes the engine’s compression and starts up the blower.

The 31cc push rod has been around for 10years where the new GX35 only out for 2 years and has timing belt. When I bought my Honda trimmer, I bought HHT31S instead of the new HHT35S with the newer 35cc engine for the same reason. In the hybrid engines case, feedback is mixed at best. I am not going to blindly endorse a product just by default particularly when it is quite different from their existing products. This is the same reason I question Echo going to single ring engine. ![]() Boths Shindaiwa and Stihl make top quality 2 cycles equipment but it questionable on the hybrids. You really have to keep up with the news. They are wrong on V6 Camry and Lexus Gs430. ![]() People think any car by Toyota got to be good. I think people are too much into brands, just because they make good product does not guarentee their new product is as reliable. I own a C4, I absolute would not buy another hybrid. Bottom line, read the horse power and the size of the engine, pick the comparable ones to choose.įar as I concern, I would sacrifice a little spec to get one that have a more reliable track record. I read all those and try to make sense out of it but can't exactly.
