Common specs comparison

Make & handling

  • As the Stihl BR 700 and the Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III do not share the same manufacturer, their overall build and technology in use can vary. Both products have their throttle located on the tube of the blower, which allows you to keep your left hand free.
  • These two products are constructed as backpack blowers, allowing you to comfortably carry their powerful engines and massive fuel tanks.
  • Both products are gas-powered blowers - gas is a reliable power source which you can refill in a matter of seconds.

CFM & MPH

  • The Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III with a CFM of 1000 slightly exceeds the 912 CFM of the Stihl BR 700. Thus, in comparison, you may find that the former is able to move more leaves per minute.
  • The Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III's MPH of 220 beats the 197 MPH of the Stihl BR 700. It therefore expels air faster and should aid you blowing leaves on grass or lifting heavy debris (acorns, etc.) and wet leaves more effectively.

Weight & Noise rating

  • The heavier Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III, standing at 26.8 lbs, dwarfs the 23.4 lbs of the Stihl BR 700, and may be more physically demanding to operate.
  • The Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III produces 106 dB, which is significantly higher than the 75 dB of the Stihl BR 700. Thus, the latter will be much easier on your ears.

Engine specs comparison

  • The Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III's 87.9 fl.oz. fuel tank outmatches the Stihl BR 700's 47.3 fl.oz. You may fill it up with way more fuel and presumably run it longer, if both engines had the same fuel consumption.
  • When compared, the Stihl BR 700's engine displacement at 64.8cc is lesser than the 75.6cc of the Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III. Therefore, the second may consume more fuel per stroke and is in turn be more powerful.
  • Each of these blowers requires a fuel/oil mix to operate, as the Husqvarna 580BTS Mark III features a 2-cycle engine, and the Stihl BR 700 is powered by the Stihl 4-Mix 4-stroke engine.
