Makita Blower [Posted on 2007-07-24]
Assembling the blower was very easy and it starts right up!! The blower is very light and quiet!!!It's nice not to have to worry about mixing the gas and oil! It only blows 145 MPH and it cleaned my driveway and garage. It would have been nicer if the blower was 200 MPH for the amount that you are spending--bigger better. My other complaint is that they don't give you a flat nozzle and you have to buy it extra as an accessory. Also, make sure you buy oil(a bottle is NOT included in the manufactor's box) for the blower because they only added little for you to get started.
Nice blower [Posted on 2008-02-29]
I have had this same blower for over a year now. I found that three companies sell this blower: Makita (blue), John Deere (yellow) and Dolmar (red) .... I have the Dolmar. The specs where just a little different (weight and air speed) for the Dolmar and the price was right (around $175 if I remember correctly). This is a very good machine with plenty of power and is easily started. The on/off switch on the top of the handle is positioned in such a way that I often turn it off during use when I don't intend to. I am also conscience of it being a 4-stroke engine and am careful of the position I run it in. With a crankcase filled with oil, I don't hold it upside down or at an odd angle that will allow the crank to run out of the oil .... this mindset is different than that used when running a 2-stroke blower.
