Description

Zoom on the Troy-Bilt TB272V
The Troy-Bilt TB272V
With its gas handheld design, the Troy-Bilt TB272V is a good match for homeowners with a patio or small yard that does not require frequent or large-scale cleanup.
It sports a max air speed of 150 MPH and a max air volume rating of 450 cubic feet per minute (CFM). These values mean that it should manage everyday yard leaves rather efficiently, but also have the power to handle denser material or small piles of heavier debris across lawns, patios, and garden paths.
With its 27-cc 2-stroke engine, the TB272V requires a 40:1 fuel-to-oil mix for operation. The Troy-Bilt TB272V benefits from the proprietary SpringAssist™ starting system, which allows the operator to start the leaf blower with a slow and steady pull on the starter rope to greatly reduce the pulling effort needed. It features a fuel tank of 14 fluid ounces, consistent with many other gas handheld blowers.
Users seeking ease of use will appreciate the TB272V's variable speed settings for precise airflow adjustment and cruise control for consistent operation.
Weighing 12 lbs (dry), the handheld design allows the operator to control airflow with one hand.
Equipped with a vacuum function, the TB272V doubles as a leaf collector, depositing leaves into an attached bag (14 gallon bag included).

The Troy-Bilt TB272V's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Troy-Bilt TB272V compare with similar leaf blowers.
- The Troy-Bilt TB272V carries a heavier build than many gas-powered handheld blowers, weighing 12 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.
- Upon exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 150 MPH, which is on the lower end for gas-powered handheld blowers. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the Poulan Pro PPBV25, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 230 MPH.
- With an airflow rating of 450 CFM (cubic feet per minute), the TB272V is unquestionably on the high end among 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.

Same issues on two of them Impeller coming loose plus its had to find a repair place that works on them for Troy Bilt . Spent more time in for repair shop then in my hand .I’m NOT a Happy Camper !!!!!!
Out of the box it want start. Pull the plug and it’s not firing. You don’t expect these kind of problems out of a new product. I guess I’m stuck with it because the day I bought it was also trash day. I unboxed it and put the box out with the rest of the trash. I didn’t have time to use the blower before putting the box out but now I’ve got this blower that don’t work.
Junk. Spent the first 4 months in service shop getting impeller fixed that came loose after 1 hour of use Now that I used the vacuum it leaks fuel out of cap Replaced it still leaks. Can’t wait to see what breaks next
