Most all you need is a $30-40 leaf blower. The brand isn't really a concern unless you prefer a specific brand. I use a Toro.

Re: Leaf blower.... (DsC5)

Thanks for the info. Do I need a 210mph blower or will one with less output do?

I got the 210 mph model at Sear's - pricing about the same - local service if you would ever have a warranty claim.
