Echo PB-580T 58.2 CC Back Pack Blower with Tube Mounted Throttle, 510 CFMGY#583-4 6-DFG290107

It work great for my jobs and very powerful

The instructions otoh suck but I got it sussed out and assembled. Fired up nicely and I got more work done on the first 2-hr outing with it than I did previously in 2 days. I was given a Ryobi hand held that is a pita to throttle and which broke almost immediately dousing my pants leg with fuel. I’ll fix and keep it for light duty jobs but this backpack was a very good investment for me. I’m 73 with a great deal of trees around my house, I need to keep the fuel down in there and this thing is going to make that work far, far easier. I use echo lubricant in all my 2-strokes because it’s superior to all others I have tried. It includes fuel stabilizer.

Outstanding! More than enough!!! Not using a rake ever again!

Easy to use and starts after two to three pulls.

Great leaf blower. It does exactly what I need it for. Great quality.

I purchased this thing a few years ago and I use it literally every day for my work. Other than normal maintenance this thing has been a beast! I love it!! Echo is about the best in yard machines anyway...in my opinion.

I bought this when it was on sale. It was during the winter so I didn’t get a chance to use it until the following summer. I end up having to order another one because the first one was lost in shipping.. The box was received damaged. This is my second echo blower. My first one worked great never had any problems. This one is very hard to start. My first one was temperamental, but I had a system that it always started. This new one is a pain in the butt all the time. During the first use the fuel tank started leaking on my back as I was running it. I’m not sure if it was delivered leaking or possibly cracked during use. The engine has some springs on it so if you’re not paying attention when you’re pulling the starter rope, the actual engine will lift up and jam on top of the fuel tank. That could’ve been how it cracked or it was delivered that way not sure. Once you get it running, everything works like it should. I called about the warranty, but I was told I’d have to pay for the initial cost of looking at it and they would pay for the parts but the tank was only $20 and I wasn’t gonna go through all that hassle I just bought it myself and installed it. It was a pretty easy install. Because of the amount of money I spent on it I’m just dealing with it.

Strong blower. It was recommended by a neighbor. I use the expensive/premixed fuel, and it starts right up by the 3rd pull. It's a bit heavy, but worth it since you get done much quicker than a corded blower. The instructions were lame to be honest. And I would love a left-handed option. Other than that, it's great.
