Description
Equipped with a 25 cc two-cycle engine, the Poulan Pro PPBV25 gas-powered blower has a fuel-enriched carburetor and spring-assisted starting system. Capable of 230 mph air speed and 450 cfm airflow, it's ideal for year-round clean-up of grass, leaves, and other stubborn debris.

Includes vacuum.
Zoom on the Poulan Pro PPBV25
The Poulan Pro PPBV25 is a gas handheld blower that is a good match for homeowners with a small outdoor space such as a patio, driveway, or yard under about a quarter acre.
It delivers up to 450 CFM of air volume and 230 MPH of air speed. To put it simply, it moves less air overall but at higher velocity, handy for concentrated tasks in yard sections, patios, or walkways.
A 25-cc 2-stroke engine powers the PPBV25, which needs a 50:1 fuel-to-oil mixture. Its tank holds 16.9 fluid ounces, placing it in the average range among handheld blowers.
Users seeking ease of use will appreciate the PPBV25's variable speed settings for precise airflow adjustment and cruise control for consistent operation.
This blower weighs 17 lbs (dry) and its handheld form makes one-handed operation straightforward.
This blower can also be used as a vacuum, blowing leaves away or collecting them into a bag (bag included). Building on its vacuum capability, this unit’s mulching ratio of 16:1 can shrink 16 bags of leaves down to a single bag of mulch as they are vacuumed. The unit uses a metal impeller.
The Poulan Pro PPBV25's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Poulan Pro PPBV25 compare with similar leaf blowers.
- The Poulan Pro PPBV25 carries a heavier build than many gas-powered handheld blowers, weighing 17 lbs. To enjoy the lowest possible weight in this category, you could have a look at the Stihl BG 50 which is only 7.9 lbs.
- Air exiting the nozzle of this blower can reach 230 MPH, which is the fastest speed you can get with a gas-powered handheld blower.
- If air volume is an important feature, the PPBV25 by Poulan Pro will not disappoint. Its airflow maxes out at 450 CFM (cubic feet per minute), which is more powerful than most 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.
