Tools and Hardware Reviews of Tanaka TBL-7800R 65cc 4-2/7 HP 2-Stroke Backpack Blower with Tube-Mounted Throttle
Customer Review: Beast
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is a BEAST!! Great for all sorts of jobs from blowing grass clippings off your driveway to moving some heavily compacted, wet leaves. Buy some ear protection and save yourself the hassle later.Customer Review: Excellent leaf blower
Summary: 5 Stars
Over the past 15 years, this Tanaka is my 5th blower. Item arrived assembled with only the tubes and throttle body to install which was a simple operation. Unit started immediately after two pulls and has worked flawlessly (two months of daily home use). The quality of the product is a reflection of its "Made in Japan" credentials.
I have had 2 gas handheld (Sears & Stihl) and one 26cc gas back-pack (Homelite) blowers. Take it from my experiences, "if you want to save time, effort and have that professional clean-up look to your garden and other home areas, this is the blower to get." What used to take me 1 hour now takes 15 minutes. Previously, when leaves were wet, I wouldn't bother, but this commercial spec Tanaka does the clean-up efficiently and moreso, completely. Before making this purchase, I looked at other comparable models from Stihl & Echo. The origin, performance specs and pricing made me choose Tanaka. I am extremely happy with my decision.
Customer Review: Gets the job done
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have a large yard, then this is for you. It's not the most nimble blower and you will find it difficult to get into tight corners. But the sheer power of this tool allows you to do allot of work on just idle. I can blow leaves off the roof of my house on full throttle! Because of the amount of money invested in this product, I only use synthetic two-stroke oil and 91 octane. It is surprisingly frugal on gas. Although there are other blowers out there that cost less, and offer vacuum/mulch ability, not many match its CFM output/ MPH velocity. A big plus is its Japanese construction. The fact that it's not made in Mexico or china speaks volumes for me. With a flip of the on switch and one pull, just one, and it's on. I have used this for about 5 hours of run time so I cannot say how it's is going to last for long haul but from the look and feel of this blower, It isn't giving me any reason to think I will be buying another one for a long time.Customer Review: Great Leaf Blower
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent backpack leaf blower. Not at all heavy and gets the job done. It has more then enough power to get the average job done and it also gets the big jobs done as well. It's worth the money if you have a large lot and need to clear leaves and other stuff often. I wish I had spent the money years ago after seeing how much time and effort it saves me durning spring and fall clean ups.Customer Review: It Rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars
This blower is fantastic. It blows my 20 x 50' driveway off in 10 seconds flat. I have a large yard with 50 trees and I can now finally take care of it by myself in a reasonalble amount of time. My previous blower was a weak corded model that took all day to do what I can do now in an hour. I was paying from $50- $95 every two weeks during the fall to clean up the yard. So as you can see it has already paid for itself. It is a better blower than the yard service guys were using. Like the other reviewer, I appreciate the fact that it is Japanese and not Chinese. It is a quality piece of equipment and has a great warranty. It blows very hard and you'll need to be careful with things not tied down. Already had a few of my wifes Christmas decorations launched into the void. Very pleased with the purchase.
