This leaf blower is relatively quiet and light weight; above all we liked the zipperless bag so leaves don’t get caught in a zipper and waste time; also was surprised that it sort of pulverized the leaves making them easier to get rid of in far less space and could have been used for a compost mix if we did that here in AZ. It sure makes a job easier and will pay for itslef rather than landscape maintenance, in a couple of uses.

Pros:
Aluminum Impeller
Cons:
Much weaker engine (smaller nozzle to still maintain up to 240 MPH speed)My guess to save money due to going Variable speed.
Heavier by a good couple pounds, I am in my earlier 20’s and athletic and was tired of carrying it after finishing my yard.

I had a previous version of the leaf hog that I was satisfied with but when it burned out, I was in the market for another. This model is a noticeable improvement. The steel propeller is a key upgrade as is as the zipperless bag. It is relatively light weight and very powerful. I could not find this at home depot and was delighted that amazon offered it.
