Vacs from three leading companies to keep the summer garden looking tidy

Stihle BG 56-CE leaf blower

As late summer is blown in with northerly winds the garden can start to look a bit scruffy with twigs and leaves littering paths and lawns.

So here to keep things neat and tidy are three top leaf blowers from leading companies which are firm favourites with professionals and amateur gardeners alike.

The first is the STIHL BG 56-CE Handheld Petrol Leaf Blower, a really powerful machine

with a 27.2 cc engine which has a catalytic converter to reduce emissions, a simple priming system and which fires up very simply with minimal effort.

It weighs just 4.2 kg and can be adapted to pe3rform other tasks as well as there is a vacuum adaptor kit which lets you suck the debris into a collecting bag and a neat device which allows you to clean the gutters.

It costs £239, is delivered free within two to three working days and has a two year warranty from Stihl.

Now another leading manufacturer of top quality leaf blowers.

The Kawasaki KRH-300A Hand-Held Garden Leaf Blower is a machine for both the professional and home owners with its 26.3 cc engine producing an air speed of 241 km and hour.

The blower weighs only 4.7 kg and is very easy to use and has a five year domestic warranty, two years for commercial use.

It is delivered free the next working day and costs £279.

And this last one is from a Japanese company with an increasing reputation for producing top quality gardening equipment increasingly the choice of the professional.

The Tanaka THB-260PF Commercial-Grade Handheld Petrol Blower-Vac has a 25 cc engine designed for a long life and featuring a Walbro carburettor and electronic ignition and fuel primer to get you working quickly.

It is fitted with the high-volume fan but also has a free vac kit which will suck up and shred the debris into a collecting bag.

To make it more comfortable to use it has two handles and weighs just 4.1 kg.

It costs £268, £100 less than the maker’s recommended price and has a five year domestic warranty, two years for commercial use. The vacuum/shredder kit which normally costs £69 is free.

It is delivered free the next working day.

See these pages for a full list of vacs and blowers to help with the autumn clean-up – it won’t be that long before the leaves start falling.
