Comments about Homelite Homelite Factory-Reconditioned 26cc MightyLite™ Gas Blower/Vac:

My second purchase,my first one has lasted 2 years under heavy use and abuse, the only issues are: Carb leaking around intake, yellow throttle lever broke off. Unit is still in service, thats why I bought 2 more just like it. ( PS I tryed the back pack unit, so did my neighbor.... JUNK will not start, when it does it only works on 1/2 choke and partial power, would not wish it on my enemy)

Not that excited about this product. Vibrates way to much. And the power band is awful. It's either on full throttle (if that is it's full throttle), idling or off nothing in between.

Works pretty well for the price but has some drawbacks. Too much vibration, be sure you wear gloves, this thing will put your hands to sleep.
Could use a little more power, not as strong as my electric blower.

Comments about Homelite Homelite Factory-Reconditioned 26cc MightyLite™ Gas Blower/Vac:

I do not believe that this unit is as powerful as the specs claim. For the money it is a good unit if you have small yard or just to clean off the porch. Not professional or big yard quality. Starts easy just not enough power to take on big jobs.
