Looses Power/Carb Issues
Would Not RecommendThis thing is absolute junk. When you get it running it works fine for about 15 minutes and then you have to keep adjusting the carburetor every 5 minutes after that to keep it going, it done this even on the first try right out of the box. I did give it the benefit of the doubt and kept it for about 45 days using it 3 separate times with no change. The day I took it back I traded it in for a husqvarna backpack blower which I should have bought in the beginning. Also, as soon as my return was pr...

Don't Be Fooled
Would Not RecommendI've been a fan of Craftsman tools for a long time, but this blower does not live up to the name. Don't buy this junk! I purchased this unit less than 2 years ago, and the starter cable assembly broke on the 4th pull. Fortunately, Lowe's replaced it on the same day, but I should have taken it as a sign. After about 10-15 uses with clean fuel and recommended 50:1 oil, the blower just died mid-use after I went into my woods with it. I got the run around about where to take it for warranty work, ...

So far so good!
Would RecommendSo far after using it 3 times I am pleased. It’s very powerful. However, being my first backpack blower I don’t have anything to compare the weight to. It’s pretty heavy, but overall it gets the job done.

Choke Lever Just Fell Off - Can't Start it
Would Not RecommendAfter using about 15 times, the plastic choke lever just fell off. There is no way to reattach it. Now the blower won't start at all. Extremely poor design. What a waste of money. I expected more from Craftsman.
