Looking to buy a petrol leaf blower?
There is a comprehensive range of models to choose from in the Stihl petrol range of garden leaf blowers. Whether you need to clear up fallen leafs in a small garden or a large estate, you will find you are spoilt for choice when it comes to buying a portable leaf blower.
There are two predominant types of petrol leaf blowers manufactured by Stihl.
These are their hand held portable units and their back pack models.
When it comes to hand held units you also have the option of choosing a model that vacuums and shreds leaves and garden debris as well. These are referred to as a garden leaf vacuum.
A common feature of all Stihl petrol leaf blowers is that they are ergonomically designed. This allows the operator to use them for extended periods of time for blowing fallen leaves, twigs, grass, and garden clippings from lawned areas, paths, driveways, and open areas.
The job of tidying up your garden (especially in Autumn) can be made far easier with one of these items of garden machinery. Why should gardening be hard work when you can blow and collect leafs and other garden debris with the help of a leaf blower?
A Stihl Petrol Leaf Blower or Vacuum Shredder can help both the home gardener as well as the professional landscaper in the tidy up of gardens, parks, estates, farms, and traffic areas.

General description of a leaf blower:
A leaf blower is a powered garden tool (electric or petrol) that propels air out of a nozzle at a high velocity to move general garden debris such as leaves, twigs, grass, and plant clippings.
The majority of leaf blowers are powered by a two stroke petrol engine or electric driven motor but four stroke petrol engined models are also now available to buy, being a new introduction to reduce noise and exhaust emissions addressing any concerns over pollution.
Most leaf blowers are of the portable hand held type (albeit some are fitted with a shoulder strap) with also back pack mounted units freely available for use by operators for prolonged use.
Some models are also capable of collecting leaves and twigs by a vacuum of air, these are commonly referred to as a blower vac. Blower vacs are fitted with a bag of some form where the garden debris is collected prior to disposal.
It is common for a blower vac to also have a built in shredder function allowing collected leaves to be finely shred ready for composting.

Choosing A leaf blower:
When deciding on a leaf blower to buy one of the first considerations needs to be - electric or petrol powered?
An electric model is ideal for small gardens and traffic areas such as paths around a domestic home. A petrol model gives you the freedom to work unrestricted without trailing cables so is more suitable for large garden areas, farms, country estates, and commercial applications.
After that comes handheld or backpack?
Handheld models are smaller in size than backpack types and are especially aimed at the home gardener and user. Backpack blowers are more suited for professional and commercial use such as by landscapers, local authorities and council workers, grounds men and the like.
After you have made these choices price and brand of the blower comes into play.
The cheapest model is not always the best in the long term with respect to quality and robustness. Many purchasers look to reading reviews and ratings provided by owners of machines to help them choose the right make and model for them. These are often referred to a best selling blower or best selling leaf vacuum shredder.
Leaf Blower Reviews, Best Buys, Sellers, Electric and Petrol Garden Blowers
The Stihl brand of leaf blower is a consistent top seller when it comes to this type of powered garden machinery. From one of the largest manufacturers of garden and landscaping equipment their leaf blowers and vacs are of a high build quality, offer good ergonomics, are robust and reliable, and above all deliver exceptional performance.
Whilst not the cheapest models available they are capable of the rapid clearing of fallen leaves and garden rubbish and as an added bonus have a great after sales service network of dealers when it comes to owners needed to buy spare parts, consumables, and obtaining maintenance.
Stihl BG56
“Affordable, light in weight, and capable of easily clearing dry and wet leaves from lawns, paths, and driveways. The BG56 C-E is easy to start and a joy to use especially in Autumn when the leaf drop is at its highest level. Quality is evident throughout the unit and performance is way ahead of previous electric model owned”
Stihl SH86
“It was important for the blower to collect as well as just blow leaves. The Stihl SH86 is good all round in what it does but the vac mode is great in saving time and effort on what is otherwise a tedious task. Not only does the SH86 collect garden clippings, leaves, and twigs, it also shreds them ready for dumping straight in the wheelly bin or on the compost heap. The carry strap also helps support the blower when in use as a vac and is a real bonus when you are clearing large areas”
Stihl BR380
“Used by council workers and groundsmen Nationwide prompted the decision to purchase a BR380. For reliability Stihl comes to the top of my list having used their chainsaws for many years on and around the farm. Being two stroke petrol driven the Br380 is relatively maintenance free requiring just a few simple service checks each year. To help it running smoothly I always use genuine Stihl two stroke oil which is economical bearing in mind the fuel / oil mix ratio. Although not needed by me this model can also be converted to a back pack mist blower, this is by way of you buying the optional accessory kit from a Stihl dealer”
