I have an Echo that is 13 years old. Really used the hell out of it. Only repair ever done was to replace the fuel lines and priming bulb, which is to be expected after that many years. Still runs like a champ.

When shopping, you'll see two performance metrics:
-MPH (miles per hour)
-CFM (cubic feet per minutes

Only pay attention to CFM and ignore the MPH.

Blowers that only disclose MPH is hiding lower-performance.

We have a Husq at work and its about 6 years old with weekly use by my messicans so that's my vote because those guys can frick up an anvil.

Husq hanhelds are fine but they have a problem where the manifold attaching the carb to the crank case develops separation making it impossible to start. Have an Echo PB 2100 that is going on 15 and still works fine. Looking at a Stihl to replace my Husq until I get around to repairing it.
