High Air Volume and Velocity for Quick Debris Movement
The blower produces an air velocity of 170 miles per hour when used with the included taper nozzle. It has an air volume of 441 cubic feet per minute, which means it's suitable for big jobs--such as autumn leaf removal--and quick tasks--such as removing stray grass clippings.
Lightweight Design for User Comfort
Thanks to a lightweight design, this handheld blower is easy to maneuver. It weighs 8.6 pounds for reduced user fatigue, and it features a large two-finger throttle lever for easy operation.
For further convenience, the blower's auto-return stop switch automatically resets to the "on" position to simplify startups.
Warranty Information
This Hitachi handheld blower is backed by a seven-year consumer warranty. When used in non-rental commercial applications, the blower is covered by a two-year warranty. When used in rental applications, it is covered by a one-year warranty.

Check for nearest Hitachi / Tanaka repair shop first,

This review is from: Hitachi RB24EAP 23.9cc 2 Stroke 170 MPH Gas Powered Handheld Blower (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I agree with all of the excellent reviews. I would add just one tip: This blower is equivalent to the Tanaka TRB24EAP. The only differences are the the extra "T" in the model number, color, the name on the label, AND where you can get it serviced under that great 7-year warranty. They are even priced the same on Amazon as of this review.
Tip: Take a few minutes to search the HitachiPowerTools.com and Tanaka-USA.com web sites to see which make has the most convenient certified repair shops for you. I managed to break the fuel pipe while moving things around in the shed in a hurry (my fault). I'm in a major metropolitan area with several small engine repair shops within a short drive, but the nearest certified Hitachi repair shop is an hour away. In contrast, the nearest Tanaka repair shop is 5 minutes away (there seem to be more Tanaka dealers in general). I'm going to pay for the repair out-of-pocket rather than driving 2 hours round trip or taking the time to mail the thing back to the factory for service.

Excellent Blower,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hitachi RB24EAP 23.9cc 2 Stroke 170 MPH Gas Powered Handheld Blower (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
Very good blower. Light weight, quiet and very easy to start. Very powerful at blowing leaves. My last WeedEater blower refused to start after 5 years of use. It was very poor in comparison to this Hitachi unit. The Hitachi comes with a 7 year warranty so i assume it is built to last a while. It uses 89 octane grade petrol with a 50 to 1 oil mix. I bought a separate petrol can just for the hitachi blower so as not to invalidate the warranty. The only down side is the hand trigger throttle control, it's OK but incremental throttle steps would make it so much easier to use. I would highly recommend this blower, you will not be disappointed.

The power of a backpack blower,
By DownwithOPE (Auburn, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hitachi RB24EAP 23.9cc 2 Stroke 170 MPH Gas Powered Handheld Blower (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I've used the Stihl and Echo handheld blowers and the Hitachi RB24EAP is much more powerful. I was truly amazed by the CFM (441).
Even though the Hitachi doesnt have cruise control, you really don't miss having it because you get the job done FAST! This blower is lightweight, easy to start, and comes with a $30 mail in rebate. Plus - 7 year warranty! [...]
