Common specs comparison

Make & handling

  • As the Stihl BR 700 and the Husqvarna 360BT 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.
  • Manufactured as backpack blowers, these two products are equipped with large engines and spacious fuel tanks, offering comfortable carrying while you work.
  • Both products are gas-powered blowers - gas is a reliable power source which you can refill in a matter of seconds, offering you the freedom of movement to tackle larger outdoor spaces with ease.

CFM & MPH

  • The Stihl BR 700, boasting a CFM of 912, clearly outperforms the 631 CFM of the Husqvarna 360BT. With this higher CFM, the Stihl BR 700 promises a vastly improved leaf blowing capability, allowing you to tackle larger areas with ease.
  • The MPH of the Husqvarna 360BT, at 232, modestly exceeds the 197 MPH of the Stihl BR 700, allowing it to blow leaves on grass or lift heavy debris (acorns, etc.) and wet leaves more effectively.

Weight & Noise rating

  • Weighing 23.4 lbs, the Stihl BR 700 tips the scales slightly above the 23.2 lbs of the Husqvarna 360BT, implying that while it's marginally heavier, users may still experience a touch more convenience in operation.
  • With a noise level of 97 dB, the Husqvarna 360BT generates considerably more sound than the 75 dB of the Stihl BR 700. Opting for the latter will offer a significantly quieter experience for you and reduce potential disturbance to nearby residents.

Engine specs comparison

  • With its generous 74.4 fl.oz. fuel tank, the Husqvarna 360BT outstrips the Stihl BR 700, which holds 47.3 fl.oz. of fuel. This disparity means more fuel available for longer runtime, assuming comparable fuel consumption rates between the two engines.
  • These two products boast engine displacements that are nearly identical. Consequently, their fuel consumption per stroke should be comparable, resulting in similar output levels.
  • Each of these blowers requires a fuel/oil mix to operate, as the Husqvarna 360BT features a 2-cycle engine, and the Stihl BR 700 is powered by the Stihl 4-Mix 4-stroke engine.

Other features comparison

Vacuum ability

Both the Husqvarna 360BT and the Stihl BR 700 lack leaf vacuuming features, meaning you'll need to employ another method for leaf collection.
