Husqvarna 150BT Gas Backpack Leaf Blower, 51-cc 2.16-HP 2-Cycle

Powerful and easy to use. The Husqvarna 150BT starts reliably, has plenty of power for leaves and yard debris, and is comfortable to wear for extended periods. The backpack design distributes the weight well, and the airflow makes quick work of large areas. A solid, dependable blower that I would recommend.

Performs well, lots of power for a ~50cc unit, one of the best holster designs in the market. A real value at this size and price range. WARNING: Almost returned the unit due to weak performance until I realized (albeit while packing it back in the box for return ) a small end cap that attaches to smallest outlet tube was stored inside the main outlet tube from factory packaging and needed to be removed prior to use as it was obstructing the airflow. Had a un-duh moment, and decided to remove and give it another try before making the trip to return. Once the cap restricting the airflow was removed, this. thing pushed voluminous air FAST and HARD. Saw some reviews where users experienced low power out of the box - have to assume this was due to them not removing the end cap from the main outlet from the factory packaging, Check that out because I think it's one of the reasons why they say the blower has no power.

I purchased the Husqvarna 150BT. The blower would not start and broke before it could ever be used. The pull chord recoil mechanism broke and the blower never would start. I contacted Husqvarna support and got no where. The support team essentially hung up on me. I took pictures, emailed customer support, Husqvarna support would not re send another starter said to take in to one of their local dealers. I replaced the starter my self, bought and paid for the item. It still would not start. Called the local dealers. One said if I did not buy the blower from them they would not look at it. The other dealer said the same thing but then said well.... if I did look at it, it would be 6 weeks from now. The leaves are falling now. 6 weeks from now will basically be middle of winter/ Christmas time. Husqvarna support member hung up on me. They would not honor their product or offer any support. The local dealers are reluctant to offer support. No one wants to work on it. It is brand new and never has been used. 1. If you are a dealer you should work on the blower. 2. If you cannot honor warranty services, your license to sell the product should be revoked. 3. Husqvarna should stand behind their product. They did not. I purchased a dud. A non working blower. 4. I cannot recommend you buy this blower or any Husqvarna products for this matter. Their products are shotty and customer support is non existing. Not a way to operate and run a company.After reading other reviews of the blower not starting, this has to be a common issue and Husqvarna is obviously aware yet they wont acknowledge a faulty product or stand by it. Again, not a way to run a business. I am stuck with a blower that does not work.

blowers I’ve used. The 51-cc engine delivers serious performance with strong, consistent airflow that makes quick work of heavy leaves, wet debris, and yard cleanup.With 765 CFM and 270 MPH output, it has no problem clearing large areas fast. It feels like commercial-grade power, and the 22N of force really shows when you’re pushing piles of leaves across the yard.Despite its strength, the ergonomic harness system is surprisingly comfortable. It distributes weight well and reduces fatigue, even during longer jobs. Once adjusted properly, it sits securely and feels balanced on the back.Starting is reliable, and the build quality feels rugged and designed for long-term use. If you want serious blowing power combined with comfort and durability, this is a top-tier 5-star choice for homeowners and pros alike.

Noise level is decent considering the motor is right behind your head Hearing protection is a 100% must have!Filled Tank with fuel for the first time pressed primer bulb 10times set Trigger to 1/4 speed set choke pulled starter and with in three pulls Blower was up and runningStarts fast with in 3 pulls every-timeI live in south florida so pine needles are everywhere since i have 2.25 acres with 40 foot plus southern pine treesCleaning performance is fantastic Blower handled everything i threw at it with easeBlower is well built and is Comfortable and well balance!Blower is light enough that moving it around and putting it on should not be a issue for most peopleTook 15 min to assemble as other mentioned check inside the tubes for the nozzle tip and oil they are stored inside tubes for shipping.I have owned several backpack blowers over the years from other top name MFGs and this one is the lightest and has more Power then you needWorth the purchase price if you are in the need for a fantastic blower!

Over all a great blower!It is very good quality and has held up great. We even received a broken product and Amazon was quick to send us a replacement!

I had a Husqvarna handheld blower and have been happy with it for years but I needed something bigger. I did a LOT of researching and product comparisons and landed on this 150BT model. I've only had it for a week now but I must say, I am quite impressed! It's really powerful and moves loads of leaves, even wet ones, easily. And for its power, it's not crazy noisy. Ear protection is still needed of course however it's less loud than some others I have experienced. The shoulder pads and back pad are comfortable. I also like the waist-level belt you can use to better support and center the unit on your body while you are using it. The throttle is ergonomic and easy to use/hold. The assembly instructions leave something to be desired, however. Mostly it's just the set of tubes you have to attach out of the box, but the paper instructions are not really clear so after a wee bit of trial and error, I figured out how the all go together. The rest of the Quick Start instructions for how to fire it up are fine though. It does require a gas-oil mixture so you need to find a way to mix those, or just use some premixed 50:1 stuff in the can. So far, very happy with this blower, its power and its comfort.

Awesome! I have tons of trees and this helped so much during fall.
