Hey guys,

I am currently using a Stihl BG 56 C-E blower which i brought it in a sale a few years ago. It works but has issues so I was thinking about getting a reconditioned one. I was looking at the Hitachi RB18DSLP4 18V as a replacement. I checked it out at a local store and like the weight, power, I need this just for around the house so anyone have any opinions on this blower.
Reviews online lead me to believe it's a good and Hitachi is a best quality brand but those are online reviews. I thought I'd get the correct judgement from anyone whose owned a Hitachi for a while.. and what to look before buying a reconditioned tool.? thanks...., john :smile:

Based on the specs of the Hitachi it appears that it will be very limited in what it can do. The power of it is less than an average bathroom exhaust fan and less than 20% of what your Stihl puts out.
