Echo PB-580T 58.2 CC Back Pack Blower with Tube Mounted Throttle, 510 CFMGY#583-4 6-DFG290107

I'm very impressed with this machine. I had borrowed my neighbor's Echo blower and was beyond satisfied with its performance. I decided to buy my own since I have a lot of leaf blowing to do. This one is even more powerful than my neighbor's unit. It is a little heavier I think but just wow this thing is strong. What took me 3+ hours with my old electric blower, and 1 hour with the borrowed Echo, took less than half an hour with this one.I'm not surprised at all, I have had lots of experience with Echo products. My first chain saw was an Echo that lasted almost 40 years cutting 2-3 cords every year. Currently also have an Echo weed eater and a newer Echo chain saw. Every one of them is very, very reliable and work exceptionally well.

I’ve had a Husqvarna backpack for 20 years. I recently borrowed my neighbors as I was out of gas and didn’t want to run to the store. I now have this in my shed. I couldn’t believe how much stronger it was than mine. Shocking powerful. It will rip up your grass and blow the rocks out of my landscaping if I’m not careful. It assembled easily and starts first pull. Very happy with this thing.

Ran it for over an hour or a whole tank of gas at least 3 times in it's first week. Plenty of power and lighter than others I have tried. Echo is a trusted brand. I'll buy more of their tools.

had this a couple years now and it works great, super strong, can even get wet rotten leaves moving

Faced with a large area that gets inundated with a lot of leaves from the neighbors woodlands, plus getting old, having to rake is no longer an option. Although you'll still need to rake some. . Trying to hire help has not worked out either.I first bought a nice electric blower, but not nearly enough power for this type of work. Keeping it nonetheless. Great for tight areas and blowing the leaves off the cars.As an old dude, I find this about my limit of what I can physically handle and I'm 6', 235 lbs. I barely have enough strength to connect the exhaust tubes together. Not much easier to get this on my back. I also have no experience with any other machines to compare this to.I found it useful to watch a few YT videos on its assembly. Once that's done, your good to go.Easy to start. Add fuel, prime, turn on switch on the handle, choke and pull. Don't forget the hearing protectors. I've run this about 4 hrs now.I would recommend this.

Very powerful- easy to set up and start out of the box- much more powerful than my previous lower cc blower. Would have been 5 stars, but the shoulder straps do not have a center/belt attachment so tend to slip off shoulders when wear long time.

Very powerful great machine for the price much better than Husqvarna

I replaced an old Echo with this new one and I am very impressed. Very powerful and starts right up every time. Very satisfied.
