  • Well engineered high quality tool
Makita typically manufactures tools of top quality and this blower is no exception. Parts fit correctly, engine starts easily, runs smoothly and powerfully. All that is to be expected from Makita. The unique qualities of this blower are its efficiency, low noise operation, smoothness (vibration isolation) and throttle modulation. This blower utilizes a 4-cycle engine which generates more torque at lower RPM than 2-cycle engines. The engineers at Makita have optimized the turbine for lower RPM operation so the blower moves a larger volume of air at lower RPM thus generating less noise - especially less noise in the higher frequencies that are tiring to the ear. Initially this is disconcerting as you are expecting that high pitched intense whine from a powerful blower. Without it you wonder whether it is powerful enough... However while the airspeed is good (but not noteworthy), what is surprising is the volume of air that this blower effortlessly throws. It is very effective at moving leaves without a lot of fuss and without the high pitched screaming noise. The other quality that is notable is the smooth throttle response which makes it possible to accurately deliver the correct cleaning power to remove leaves, but leave mulch intact - a very nice quality. This is due to the high quality engineering of Makita which you miss in many other brands. I am used to Stihl, Bosch and Hilti quality tools, but this Makita I find to be at least as satisfying to use as any of the equipment I have from those premium brands. Most notably is the efficiency of the unit. I used the unit for over two hours on a tank of gas. Amazing. Strong recommend. ... show more

  • Powerful blower
This backpack blower was used mostly for leaf removal on lawn surfaces. It is quite powerful and it can move leaves easily even at lower speeds. Not too noisy, but it would be a good idea to have ear protection when using it. Initially it is not very heavy to carry around, but, after an hour or two of continuous use you can feel its weight a bit more. A very important thing is to adjust the straps properly or the machine will be quite heavy if it’s loose on your back. Overall it’s a great blower, very effective for yard use. ... show more

  • Light, Cool, Quiet, and Powerful
So many things to like. First off, running straight gas is so much more convenient than premix. This thing is unbelievably light weight; I didn't expect that, especially with it being a 4 stroke engine. It appears that they have somehow managed to direct the incoming cooling air between the unit and the operator; this makes the unit appear cool on your back, to the point that if you get a bit sweaty in somewhat cooler weather it is almost chilly. I have found one negative, I think. The throttle responsiveness from low air to high high seems slower than I've witnessed with other blowers, making it difficult to lift and tuck pine straw. This may be possibly due to my poor technique rather than the unit. I would recommend this item to others, especially as it is available at a much lower price than other similar models, even from the same manufacturer. ... show more

  • Powerful, yet quiet.
I was looking for a 4 stroke leaf blower because they are quieter for equal air output. I dislike mixing fuel and the smell of 2 stroke engines. The machine unboxed easily and was simple to assemble. Makita is thoughtful and packs lubrication oil in the box; don’t forget to fill it before starting! The blower always starts on the first pull. You have a little adjustment valve that you have to set depending on the season. You just back out a set screw, move the dial to either the cold or warm season position and the replace the set screw. That’s about the only unique feature to remember for operation. When you start it up you will think it’s underpowered because there is that quieter, smooth sound of 4 stroke, not the harsh, 2 stroke scream but don’t be fooled; this blower has all the power you need for any residential purpose and even some professional use. Actually if I’m just clearing leaves and sticks off the sidewalks I can operate it on idle and it works pretty well with very little noise. I’m very happy with it. ... show more

  • Powerful, reasonably quiet backpack leaf blower
Product has a good, solid 4-cycle engine and is well designed. Only problem is adjusting the backpack carry straps - I haven't been able to find an adjustment that is comfortable and maintains the position of the blower as I walk with it. Will try a cross strap to tie the left and right shoulder straps together. ... show more

  • Don't buy it - loses power and clogs up too easily
I purchased this blower after years of aggravation with 2 stroke blowers failing, thinking a 4 stroke model would be much better and easier to keep in working order. It was great for the first few uses. Unfortunately after just 6 months of use this unit clogged up and required servicing, as it wouldn't run at full power and would stall frequently. They blamed me for "user error" and replaced the carburetor at my own cost even though I had only used the blower a half dozen times, but just a few uses later it clogged up again, stalling repeatedly when trying to throttle up. Makita won't stand behind their product. They blame the user. I even tried using only the high octane cans of TrueFuel for 4 cycle engines, and still the unit will only work at about 75% throttle. Best to avoid this blower. I wish I had bought a high quality 2 stroke model instead, which will get you more power, though more noise too, and will probably last longer if you use premixed fuel. Very disappointed... UPDATE: after replacing the carburetor I've only used ethanol free canned fuel, from Home Depot/Lowes. I haven't had any problems since. While the manual says any unleaded fuel is fine, apparently you really must use ethanol free higher octane fuel to get reliable and optimal performance from this unit ... show more
