Commercial blower

18 years ago

I'm in the market for another backpack blower. I currently have a Stihl BR 380 D backpack blower and it's very nice, but wanted to see what else is out there. Can anyone recommend another good commercial backpack blower for a landscape company? Thanks!

There are a number of good brands. A reputable dealer would be more important for service, especially as you are using it commercially.

Stay with true 2 cycles blowers like Redmax, Echo etc. I won't buy any of the hybrid 4 cycles stuff. I have been on lawnsite, there are a lot of complains on the Shindaiwa C4 and Stihl 4Mix. Go on their site to read before you jump into it. I think Stihl still sell the BR420 type, it is just not the most powerful compare to the top Redmax and Echo.

Think of Maruyama because they newly have the 5 years commercial warrantee. If you have a dealer carry them, it might be a good choice.
