June 15, 2018

Recently, Keith Kalfas of Landscape Employee Trap compared the ECHO PB-2520 handheld gas blower with the Milwaukee M18 FUEL cordless blower.

Powering both up for an individual look first, Keith then compares in a side-to-side match-up to see how they stack up against each other.

As Keith shares, both have their various strengths and are excellent options based on use. But what's Keith's preference between the ECHO PB-2520 and the Milwaukee M18 FUEL? The answer is in the video.

 

ECHO PB-2520 Blower

Pros

  • Most powerful handheld he's ever used (comparable to the smaller backpack blowers)

  • Could replace Stihl's BR 700

  • Lightweight and easy to use

 

Cons

  • Big fall clean-ups would probably be better served by backpack blowers

 

Milwaukee M18 FUEL Cordless Blower

Pros

  • Perfect for quick spot touching up something you might have missed

  • The design allows the velocity of the wind to blow straight ahead

  • Ergonomic, plug-in-and-go operating

 

Cons

  • Lack of motor could see it as less powerful than gas-powered
