Zoom on the Poulan Pro PLB26
The Poulan Pro PLB26
With its gas handheld design, the Poulan Pro PLB26 is best suited to homeowners with smaller home areas like patios, walkways, or compact front and back lawns under a quarter acre.
It is rated for a max air volume of 430 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a max air speed of 190 MPH. In practice, this blower should move scattered leaves across yard areas and patios with concentrated airflow.
With its 26-cc 2-stroke engine, the PLB26 requires a 50:1 fuel-to-oil mix for operation.
In order to afford more control to the user, this unit has a variable speed control. No matter the size of the job, the user can adjust the airflow of the Poulan Pro PLB26 to match.
Weighing 9.9 lbs (dry), the handheld design allows the operator to control airflow with one hand.

The Poulan Pro PLB26's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Poulan Pro PLB26 compare with similar leaf blowers.
- At 9.9 lbs, the Poulan Pro PLB26 sits comfortably within the average weight range for gas-powered handheld blowers. Should weight be a deciding factor, the Stihl BG 50 is worth a look at just 7.9 lbs.
- Upon exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 190 MPH, which is rather impressive for a gas-powered handheld blower. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Poulan Pro PPBV25 and its 230 MPH could be an option to consider.
- The Poulan Pro PLB26 boasts an airflow rate of 430 CFM (cubic feet per minute), which is standard for gas-powered handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Ryobi JET FAN RY25AXB, with 520 CFM, could be in your good books.
