Tools and Hardware Reviews of TROY-BILT BLOWER/VAC
Customer Review: Look Elsewhere
Summary: 1 Stars
I've owned this blower since 2006, first year was fine. Now, if you can get it started, it works. If you will run it every 3-4 days, it'll start. But my routine is every other week, and it does not want to start. I think the problem is the plug is on the bottom, so it gets fouled with oil. Like other comments, idle will not stay on fast it always goes to idle. It's for sale, $5 plus shipping!Customer Review: Piece of Junk
Summary: 1 Stars
This is my second blower. It starts good for the first couple of times that you use it and after that it seems to stall and is difficult to start. I have not been impressed with Troybilts products; it seems that quality control is not something that they pride themselves in. Take a look at the Troybilt's home page, even the ratings on their own page tell the truth, save your money, buy a Stihl!Customer Review: Rotten Blower - warranty is worse
Summary: 1 Stars
Blower stopped working after about 30 days - less than 1 hour of use. Took to warranty repair facility shop and was told damage was my fault. Told the engine losing compression. I was told I did not properly lubricate. I used gas with the proper 40:1 ratio. I have a Troy Bilt trimmer using the same can of gas. So far all I am getting is excuses but no replacement. I would not buy one.Customer Review: No problems with this blower so far.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a good value for the money. I have found it very easy to start and produces better air flow than the old weed eater I had. The vacuum feature seems to hook up easily but I haven't used it yet. Overall I am very happy with it and I hope I won't have any of the problems that some people have reported. A $200 professional blower may be better but the TroyBilt is adequate for me.Customer Review: Oh, I'm mad just thinking about it
Summary: 1 Stars
This worked for the 2-3 hours I used it in 2006. Now (2007) it refuses to start at all, despite all storage/maintenance performed. I've changed the gas, replaced the plug, checked for spark, cleaned the air filter, cleaned the spark arrestor, tried starter fluid, etc. Nothing. So I paid roughly $50/hr to use this in 2006, and spent about 3 hours trying to get it to work this year.
