ECHO PB 8010

Posted by Peter sellers on February 13, 2020 at 7:54am in Machinery

Thought I would give our experiences of the recently introduced Echo PB 8010 backpack blower after 3 months hard commercial use. The Echo is superb. We have a Stihl BR 800 also - the Echo outperforms it on every level. - both used side by side on the same large lawned area with numerous trees. We blow the leaves from one side into an area of woodland, a distance of around 300 metres - the Stihl only blew the leaves halfway before the pile of leaves became unmoveable for it, the Echo moved all the leaves into the wood - just one example. This blower is insane !

It's light - carbon fibre body, starts second pull everytime, nice to use - you would perhaps think due to the power you would be fighting with it - not the case, if you are thinking of buying one don't hesitate. Stihl must be worried !!
