I purchased this product 1 year ago and have used 7 times on the 8 time the pull cord will not retract. It has a 2 year warranty I called and filed a warranty complaint and the nearest dealer they could find me was over 1 hour from home. I asked if I could have a local repair person look at it and submit for reimbursement and was told no. The service is awful and the product is not built to last.

Craftsman has lived up to it name here.
Would RecommendStraight forward & easy to assemble the tubing. Only a slight adjustment to the straps, which is expected. Fired up & run's great. Nice blowing power as well. Will get some ear plugs or headset for hearing protection. Full tank of fuel run's for at least an hour.

Light and Powerful
Would RecommendOut of the box, worked great! Actually worked better than I expected. Easy start, light, and plenty of air volume. Have used a different make, more expensive, heavier. This bad boy should be around for years. I have a large yard that I blew the front and back off with a pretty heavy layer of leaves. Was happy with the short amount of time it took.

Waste of money
Would Not RecommendJunk Lowes has 48 hr return policy craftsman themselves will make you travel to have this looked at instead of just refunding. Brand new out of the box would not run.

Beast Mode!
Would RecommendSo much easier than an electric blower. And 3 times the power! I’m property manager for my neighbor and I breezed thru the leaves in the front, mine and hers, in an hour! We have big 2-3 stalk oaks about 80’ high and this bad boy did not disappoint!!! Little tough getting started but once it’s going… it goes!!! Highly recommended!!!
Good buy
Would Not RecommendPowerful blower
