Description
Overview of the Troy-Bilt TB272V
- Power: The TB272V, built by Troy-Bilt, is a gas-powered leaf blower capable of expelling a maximum air volume of 450 cubic feet per minute (CFM). Its air speed is rated at 150 MPH.
- Handling: With its handheld design, this leaf blower was created with portability in mind. Most users will have no problem using it almost anywhere. However, for a gas-powered handheld blower, the Troy-Bilt TB272V is heavier than most, weighing 12 lbs.
- Engine: This blower's engine has a displacement specification of 27cc. Please be aware that 2-cycle engines like this one require a mixture of gas and oil in order to run. For the Troy-Bilt TB272V, this ratio is 40:1.
- Speed Settings: With its variable speed settings, the Troy-Bilt TB272V allows you to precisely control its air output. In addition, the blower is also equipped with cruise control, with which the user can easily maintain the selected settings.
- Vacuum: For those who really want to make leaves disappear, the TB272V has a handy 'blower vac' feature (the keyword here being 'vac', aka 'vacuum'). It allows the operator to collect leaves and light debris in a collection bag to be easily discarded after the job is finished (14 gallon bag included).
- Noise: Its noise rating of 74 dB can be considered the standard for similar gas-powered handheld blowers.
- Fuel Tank: It has an average fuel capacity for a handheld blower, with a tank that holds around 14 fl. oz of fuel.
- SpringAssist™: The Troy-Bilt TB272V benefits from the proprietary SpringAssist™ starting system. This system allows the operator to start the leaf blower with a slow and steady pull on the starter rope, which greatly reduces the pulling effort needed.

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.
- 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 Craftsman BV2500, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 250 MPH.
- It has a maximum air volume output of 450 CFM (cubic feet per minute). With this output rating, the TB272V is well within average in relation to similar gas-powered handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Craftsman B225, with 650 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
