I like the back pack better, I find the walk behind to be cumbersome and cant use it everywhere

I'm solo, one is all I can handle.
10hp Intek Billygoat.
Br-550 Backpack and Bg-55 handheld (yes, simultaneously anymore).
Br-420 as a backup.
A rake and a tarp lol.
I think this year I'll check out the Br-600 thou, it apparently has a LOT more cfm than the 550.

We actually sold the two walk-behind blowers we had and bought a couple more backpack blowers. It seemed more efficient to blow the leaves into piles, tarp them and drag them. The bigger backpack blowers(Shindaiwa 8510 & Redmax7001 & larger) seem to be nearly as powerful with alot more control.
