All depends on what you're using it for!

Grass+Leaves - Redmax 7500/8500
Grass Only - ECHO 770
Leaves Only - BR700

Can they all blow grass? Yup. Can they all blow leaves. Sure. But if in my experience, my ECHO 770 and RM 7500's are go to for summer for blowing grass. With leaves, I use my RM 7500's and an 8500 when I have access to one. The BR700 by still is good for leaves, but I was highly disappointed in its ability to blow grass clippings well.

Never had the chance to use one! I know Exmark makes some great stand on's but I am not sure how small the deck size goes for theirs.

I always used a sulky. Is that the option you're looking for, or a Grand Stand / V-Ride style?

What is your guy's favorite blower currently out right now?

I personally use 2 Redmax 7500s day to day, and my Echo 770T. I feel like my Redmax's are best for grass AND leaves. But I will say, when I am cutting grass in the summer months, I instinctively grab my Echo 770T. I've tried the Stihl BR-700 at length too. Very good blower for leaves. Not very good for grass. I was hoping Echo comes out with a higher CFM blower.

Anyone else?
