5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product!, June 24, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Makita BHX2500CA Commercial Grade 4-Stroke 24.5cc Handheld Blower (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
My Makita Leaf Blower arrived quickly using Amazon's Prime Service. Even though the machine in new, and built in 2007, it started right up on the third pull. After that, it quickly starts on the first or second pull. There is no hesitation once it starts and from there on it just purrs like a big cat. Don't be fooled by the 145 MPH air speed from this tool. I thought it was going to be underpowered. But most leaf blowing tasks can be done at idle or 1/4 throttle. I think this is because when you carry the tool around, the nozzle is always close to the ground. Only when encountering wet leaves I had to use more power from the rather quiet engine. Oil (10W-30) is not included. Being a 4 cycle engine, no oil and gas mixing is required. The manual is poorly translated from Japanese, but adequate. At 10 pounds (wet) and with a sore elbow, I had no trouble doing my yard and blowing leaves from inside the garage. You can even blow away pesky cobwebs off windows and dry your car.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works well and fairly quiet, September 29, 2010
This review is from: Makita BHX2500CA Commercial Grade 4-Stroke 24.5cc Handheld Blower (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)

I ordered this to replace my 2 stroke leaf blower. When I heard these leaf blowers were available in four cycle I knew that is exactly what I wanted. For $199.00 I can tell you to buy this leaf blower. But remember to put oil in it before you start it up. The crankcase takes 2.7 floz. of 10-30 oil. It starts right up and is really quiet compared to my old two cycle one. You have to let it warm up for at least one minute and gradually open the choke. The throttle is cool and the sound reminds me of a little Honda mini bike. Some people were complaining about the position of the off/on switch I actually think it is in a perfect location. They always recommend ear protection but I cleaned my patio and driveway of leaves without ear protection and did not need to throttle much. There is a mild gyroscopic effect when you gas up all the way but it is mild. When you get this unit you get only the blower pipe, the pipe fits into position in channels then you turn it to lock it in. If you want the vacuum part they are extra. Who uses the vacuum anyway? It has a three year warranty. Mine did not come with oil so remember to fill the crankcase with oil before you start it. And hallelujah no more mixing gas and oil.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good 4 stroke, October 21, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Makita BHX2500CA Commercial Grade 4-Stroke 24.5cc Handheld Blower (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
This is not a real strong blower but is certainly adequate for most chores around the house. It is quieter than the 2 stroke it replaced and quieter than the electric blower I own and has a much lower pitch. It has always started on the 1st or 2nd pull and can be taken off of choke almost right away. If you are right handed, it will occasionally suck up to your right leg just a little if you let the blower touch your leg since the intake is on the left side and not underneath. No big deal and not a problem when you switch between hands. It is easy to accidentally shut it off while using it because of where the on/off switch is located on the handle and your thumb will push it off sometime until you get used to it and keep the thumb away from the switch. I am very pleased with this and how easily it starts.
