[QUOTE="velocicaur, post: 16129039, member: 33335"] I've been mowing for a while. Backpack blowers are extremely hard on your back and I would avoid one at all costs. As a home owner it may not be that big of a deal but it's work after 20 minutes and it is still a pain in the ass to put that thing on. They come in at about 25 lbs and a handheld is about 10 pounds. It's a major difference. Most homeowners are fine with a handheld. You would have to be dealing with a serious amount of leaves? to validate a backpack blower. I would look into other ways to deal with it such as a better leaf collection for your lawn mower. If you have your heart set on a backpack, get the biggest one you can. You'll want to get that nonsense over with as quick as possible. We actually switched to Redmax 8500's. They have been absolutely flawless and have power for days. They are showing up more and more on the commercial guys around here. They are all fine at the end of the day. See which one feels the most comfortable and go with that one. [/QUOTE]
