Hey everyone! I'm a newbie getting into leaf removal and I'm on the hunt for a blower that fits my needs. I'm a fairly small guy at 5'3" and I want something lightweight so I can handle it for hours without wearing myself out. I'm planning to work on medium-sized properties, max around an acre. I'm also trying to stay within a budget of $300 since I can't afford to spend $400 on something fancy like the BR 800. I've heard good things about Stihl and Echo, but I'm open to other options too. Any recommendations for a good blower that won't be overkill for a beginner like me? I'd really appreciate your help!

Hey! You might want to check out the Ego electric blowers. They’re powerful and way easier to maintain since you don’t have to deal with gas. Plus, they tend to be cheaper in the long run! Just keep in mind the battery life if you're working multiple jobs a day.
That’s a solid point! But have you used it in a contractor setting? I’m also looking for something that lasts long since I’ll be tackling multiple properties daily.
