wondering if you guys can help me out. I need to get a leaf blower, and to make life a little easier on my mower, I've been thinking about getting a hand held blower/vac. been trying to decide between the stihl sh 86 c e, and the husqvarna 125bvx. I want something reliable and that doesn't put a lot of vibration through the handle, so I'm liking the Stihl. Also have watched youtube videos of the Stihl and it seems pretty quiet. I have the husqvarna 128LD trimmer which I think is basically the same engine as the blower/vac I'm considering, and I was never real happy with how loud it is. Knock on wood, its held up great for me, but reviews I've read on the 125bvx seem mixed. Some people have had lots of issues with the engine dying on them after a few hours use, others have had good luck. But money is tight, so that does make the Husqvarna attractive. Also would like to get the gutter kit for what ever I decide to go with. I was considering the Shindaiwa EB212 till I decided I wanted something that would vacuum leaves as well.
