stihl 550 blower

[parkside]

just purchased a stihl 550 blower. Just wondering what those of you that have one think of this unit.

The 550 is a very quiet unit with 10 to 15% greater power then the 420 Mag series.
There were some initial release problems, but they should all have been resolved by now.
I own two BR 600s and they are very good units. The 550 should be very powerful and significantly quieter machines.
You should be exceptionally pleased with your investment.
