I've used the Echo PB580T for three years on my suburban yard. It's a great blower -- plenty of power. Only complaint is it's heavy.

[@GarageGear]

@@beverlyc.8175 great Blower! Yep now way around it they weight a bit! 👍

[@Mike_Srt]

It’s a good blower. I have a 580 and a 9010. I love the 9010! Especially if you live near woods and want to push leaves into the woods. The 580 does ok though. 🤙

[@TecumsehRulesbcserk]

At the prices these units come at, you could buy a walk behind blower or yard vacuum. Some of those walk behind blowers make almost double the cfm these ones do. I guess it all just comes down to preference when deciding between them.

[@GarageGear]

@@TecumsehRulesbcserk I agree! I’ve seen those walk behind blowers used for only a few hundred dollars. Yard is clean in 3 minutes that thing. Thanks for watching BCSERK

[@PatrickFaricy]

If you have a flat yard with no hills, maybe, but pushing one of walk behinds won't be so convenient if you have lots of hills, getting around and under trees or landscaping. But they definitely have their place.

[@PatrickFaricy]

@@Mike_Srt Yeah, a large backpack blower has no problem with acorns, sticks and even rocks, you might have to give the larger ones a kick, to get them rolling, but the only time you have to use a rake when you have a back pack blower in your arsenal is for final clean up.

[@markchoate9021]

I have a large yard, lots of trees, plus my wife has an outdoor riding arena with lots of trees around. I have been wearing out my eXmark zero turn mulching and blowing them. Quite a hassle. For several years my blower consisted of a Husky hand held that just did not have the power to take all this on. Today, a friend of mine who does landscaping, loaned me his PB580T to try. Man, I was so impressed. However, after watching this video, I am starting to lean towards the PB770T for a bit more power. It sounds like it's similar to tractors. You can never have too much tractor....... ha.

[@GarageGear]

RIGHT ON Mark! You won’t be disappointed with the 770! Tons of power! The weight is right. Does drink gas but zero issues over ten years! 👍

[@markchoate9021]

[@PatrickFaricy]

The battery powered hand held units definitely have their place, if using them to blow out the garage, blow off the patio, you can even use them inside instead of vacuuming. But, yeah, to try and blow thick layers of leaves or wet leaves in your yard with a battery hand held unit, even a gasser hand held unit, not so much. As far as run time is concerned, my Milwaukee will only run for 9 minutes using a 6.0 amp battery, of course that is running it wide open throttle, almost double that with a 12.0 amp battery, but that is a lot of battery changing for trying to use it on your yard and they are in no way as powerful as a backpack blower.

I just purchased a Shindawa 790. It has the same power as the 9010 but the housing of a 770 and smaller fuel tank. The 9010 is like having a car on your back, at some point the weight is not worth carrying around.

If you can that’s the best fertilizer for your lawn. That’s what I do but if they get piled up too high I leaf blow them.

My Echo 580 is an aggravating POS only because of the ignition coil. I just put my 3rd in today. The factory one lasted 2 years - probably 7 hrs running time.

I was in the same boat, looking for a new 21 inch mower and if you are still in the market take a look at the Kress KG760.1 battery powered mower. It comes with two 5.0 amp hour 60 volt batteries and when mulching, I get 57 minutes of run time out of each battery and that is mowing on hills one of which is very steep. Met a guy at the dealer who has a flat, level city lot, he is getting 116 minutes out of each battery and he said he strictly uses it to mulch his lawn.
