Review Posted 11/10/2013
I bought this 3 years ago and I haven't used it real hard. First year was great, second year started to not run as clean but worked and now it won't rev past 1/4 throttle with out coughing and popping. I cleaned the air filter and carb and put in a new spark plug and it ran better for a few times but has since returned to its old ways. Going to pitch this one and buy a better one.

For the price, as well as what I use it for (driveway), I have absolutely no problem with this machine. Starts on one pull, runs efficiently. I recommend it to anyone not commercial.

Difficult to start. Will not restart when hot. Service center got it running, but would not restart. Poulan service center was confused about where I should take it and offered centers in three different states. Best guess was a bad circuit board? I'm moving on to another product.

Review Posted 06/10/2013
The leaf blower power and suction is very good. However the grips versus muffler exhaust needs relocation. The exhaust discharge tends to be directed at the operators mid section. A major inconvenience. This was not true with my 2001 Craftsman blower/vac.

Very hard to start
By Johnny

Review Posted 06/06/2013
I have followed the instructions to a T. I have to pull the rope many times to get the unit to start. I have tried more pumps of the ball and less to find a good starting point. I use the start position and then holding the trigger. No matter what I do it takes many pulls of the rope to get the unit to start.
