5.0 out of 5 stars Works great,easy starting and no gasoline/oil exhaust smell ! May 22, 2010

By G. Tom

This is a very nice blower, I filled the oil reservoir and about 5 pulls later I was using the blower. After the blower was warmed up it started with one pull. The size of this blower is just slightly bigger than my old gas Homelite blower due to the bottom handle and larger rectangular body, this blower also weighs about a pound and a half more than the old one, which is not really a big deal. The best thing about this blower is that after using it I dont have that gasoline/oil exhaust smell on my clothing, also I dont have to store gasoline or mess with filling the tank with the gas/oil mixture. Screwing the propane cylinder on and off is easy and mess free. Other than that it is pretty much the same as the old gas blower, the engine runs smoothly and it blows comparable to the gas model. I would highly recommend this blower over a gas,electric or battery powered blower.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lehr Propane Blower June 19, 2010

By James

Recieved blower in just a few days. Right out of box the blower's propane canister clamp would not work properly. Called Lehr and they sent out a replacement (it took 10 days). After using it the second time the black exhaust tube developed a break. Called Lehr again and they said they would send one out (it has been 2 weeks and still not here). Lehr's customer service seems very helpful and cooperative, just seems to take a long time to get warranty replacement parts. A few comments... engine starts after 4 or 5 pulls, as expected, and runs smoothly. Air intake is dangerously close to your body for right handers. You have to keep and eye on any of your clothes that may be hanging around the intake. I had a string from my shorts that was sucked in and chopped off. In conclusion, blower is cheaply made for $200. It is built on par with a low end gas blower that sells for half the money. I am still willing to give this blower a chance because of my dislike of gas engines. If it starts year after years with no troubles I can live with it's cheap construction. Only time will tell.

2.0 out of 5 stars poor service from Lehr? July 23, 2010

By Try to be green

I bought this blower over one month ago thinking that it would be nice to use a green (less polluting) product like this. Upon opening the box, I found the air intake guard called "cage" was broken. This is perhaps due to poor manufacture's packaging design. I could use it with the broken cage but it may be dangerous to do so. In the box, I also found a sheet of paper saying that I should call the manufacturer for any problems rather than sending it back to the retailer. I contacted Lehr by internet and got an immediate (with in one hour or so) reply from the service department promising a replacement part and asking for the serial number. It was nice to get such a quick action. I sent the number within a day but got no further communication from Lehr. In a week or so, I wrote e-mail asking for the status and got a simple answer again immediately saying that he (my service rep) will take care of..... I waited for two more weeks (total 3 weeks) and decided to return the unit to Amazon. My thought was that it maybe a problem if I can not get a repair part in case something goes wrong. Besides, the air speed is not as fast as I want. I have used 5 different blowers including a very cheap ($60) gas blower but have never seen anything this slow. I do not mean it is not adequate but simply saying that the speed is not as fast as those gas blowers I have experienced with.
Returning the blower to Amazon was very easy. I got a return authorization by internet instantaneously and UPS showed up at the door to pick it up on the following day. In a few days after that, I got a mail message from Amazon that they received the returned blower and would give me the full purchase price refund. Since I am a primer member, I did not pay any shipping. On the same day, I went to Sears and bought a gas blower for about one half of what I paid for this Lehr blower. My previous blower from Sears last 10 years from weekly heavy use and was still running at the time I got rid of. The new Sears blower I bought is very similar to this Lehr blower in design and functions but its air speed is said to be 40% faster and I can feel it. I tried to be green and willing to pay more. But I want to have something better than this in terms of product design and especially service.
