[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The backpack unit was easy to assemble. It is packed in the box with a small starter container of oil to fill up the tank. After that, it uses standard 10W-30 grade. It also takes standard gasoline. There is no mixing of oil and fuel. Startup was quick. It took some fiddling with the straps to get the backpack to a comfortable wearing position. Note that once it’s assembled, the blower is quite large. It stretches out about five feet and probably weighs 20 pounds when full of oil and fuel. It is professional-grade equipment, and it shows up in the results. I’ve had electric blowers for years and this one far exceeds the power of those. The convenience is the best part. I no longer need to fumble around with long cords. This blower can quickly take care of a job, or I can get to places that I couldn’t reach before. Would definitely recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Assembly is easy. Put together in ten minutes or less. So awesome that it comes with the exact amount of oil that’s needed. Really loving the 4 stroke motor that I didn’t realize was so awesome having mixed gas. Plenty of power. Comfortable fit. Adjustable handle for the throttle. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is actually pretty cool because you can wear it on your back like a backpack. It definitely makes it easier to carry and handle. It works great and has a good amount to of power. Gets the job done well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one powerful blower. It easily handled clearing out our shrub and beds areas from all of the fall and winter leaf debris. It’s so easy my 13 year old can use it. He will be using this for his neighborhood lawn business this summer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband has been wanting a gas powered backpack blower for years now. Finally landed on this one and he is extremely satisfied! It was easy to put together and always starts with 1-2 pulls. Twice as powerful as any of the electric blowers that we’ve owned in the past.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really impressed with this leafblower. I am a short young woman who usually has difficulty with heavy backpack leafblowers. This one was light enough for me to comfortably carry around and use outside for over an hour. The leafblower itself came packaged nicely in a box with instructions on how to easily put it together and came with the tools necessary to do so as well. Another thing that I liked about this blower was that it just uses regular gas. The gas and oil are not mixed at all which means it was easy to fill and use and much cheaper than other leaf blowers. I will say, DO NOT USE OLD GAS in this blower. I originally tried using it with some gas that was older, and while it would start and run for a little bit, after a while the machine began to stall over and over. After emptying the machine and putting fresh gas in, it had no problems. It ran for over an hour and only turned off when it ran out of gas. The backpack itself is light and I would also say that it is quieter to use than more heavy duty backpack blowers, while still being strong and getting at those leaves. I also found the cruise setting easy to use as the lever to turn it on is easy to access. Overall a really nice blower that runs well and is lightweight. Again, the only issue I had was putting old gas in the blower (which it does say not to do but I didn't realize how old the gas actually was) but after fixing that, it ran beautifully. I would absolutely recommend this backpack blower for anyone looking for a strong, lightweight and easy to use machine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my blower. Very convenient easy to use. I love the power it gives off when doing your yard. It's not too loud and not heavy at all. The brand it self speak for it. They are durable and long lasting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE using this blower. It is light and pretty easy to use (note: I am 5'4" 130lbs woman). I had no problem moving around with this thing on my back. I also like that you could use the same gas that I use for my lawn mower, and you do not have to mix gas and oil to sue this blower. I had fun using this power thing today!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this is my first full size leaf blower as I was previously using a small handheld electric rechargable one. I thought I wasn't going to like having to use gas or it would be heavy/cumbersome but honestly this thing is perfect and super effective. Setup was straightforward without incident. It is solid and has held up to my clumsy nature banging it on corners and such. It has incredible power like I wouldn't recommend pointing it at someone's face on full blast power. The gas power has actually been great since I don't have to wait to charge it/accidentally forget too. I can get my entire acre yard done in less than a tank! I love the trigger feature that allows me to vary the power and the backpack feature-it's not heavy even with a full tank of gas. I'm 5'2 140lbs and I can do the whole yard myself which feels empowering. My husband thinks I'm cute with it on and he appreciates me doing the leaf blowing which he mows. I can't think of any negatives but I will still keep my small rechargable for doing the deck and porch. This will be my go-to for the yard though. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to try this backpack leaf blower. As a woman I’ve always been intimidated by yard tools but since moving to a home with an acre of land I needed to get past that. This leaf blower is comfortable to wear and doesn’t require mixing oil with gasoline so it’s very easy to prep on my own. It’s extremely powerful and does a wonderful job at blowing away leaves and debris. My yard looks fanatic after a harsh with with many wind storms.
