Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Save on Leaf Blowers & Vacuums
This is just a great little tool! Over the years I have owned several makes of blower, some are perhaps more powerful but are noisy, require two stroke fuel and indeed are much more expensive. (Unless you risk a dodgy make). I am retired now but worked for several years as a research technician for a major Japanese motorcycle manufacturer, I mention this because I would slot into the "Petrol Head" division and as such I would say the engine in this blower is a Jem. It is well built using good quality castings, starts so easily - anyone saying different should perhaps read the instructions and is very easy on fuel. I would strongly recommend to all.

The four stoke engine is great reasonably quiet and no horrid 2 stroke smell. The vacuum bought as an extra I find clunky and hard to use.

easy to assemble & set up very easy to start 2 0r 3 pumps on the primer full choke & it has always started first or second pull. Runs very quietly due to the 4 stroke engine,i have fitted an over the shoulder sling to mine to take the weight at full arm stretch, which makes it that bit less tiring to use over prolonged periods[should have been supplied as standard].The only other criticism i have is that if you are right handed the air intake might pull your trousers or skirt over it, reducing air flow. But if i had my time again would i buy the Makita BHX 2501. YES

Bought this machine because my old Makita had packed up after many year's work, I had left it in the glass house during very hot weather and cooked the carb. It arrived as promised, with a tiny bottle of sump oil, I put the oil in the sump and YES!! it WAS the correct amount. The machine is quieter, more powerful and uses much lees fuel than the previous two stroke machine, as well as being easy to start. A vast improvement on the old two stroke machine.

A great machine, reliable and very easy to use. A further plus it's petrol only, not two stroke, for me it's to messy. Found it very handy for lots of other uses also. 1. Broom is now redundant 2. Blowing excess water off car after washing G.C.Ness
