Common specs comparison

Make & handling

  • Because the Stihl BR 700 and the Husqvarna 360BT are produced by separate manufacturers, there might be differences in their overall design and technological implementation. On both products, the throttle is situated on the blower tube, giving you the advantage of having your left hand available for other uses.
  • Designed as backpack blowers, both products boast substantial engines and sizable fuel tanks, making them easy to carry for extended periods.
  • 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, providing a CFM of 912, outmatches the 631 CFM of the Husqvarna 360BT. Your leaf blowing experience will therefore be outstandingly improved with the Stihl BR 700, as it should be able to move considerably more leaves per minute.
  • The Husqvarna 360BT, with an MPH of 232, modestly outpaces the 197 MPH of the Stihl BR 700, ensuring slightly quicker air expulsion for more efficient leaf blowing and debris lifting.

Weight & Noise rating

  • At 23.4 lbs, the Stihl BR 700 just slightly outweighs the 23.2 lbs of the Husqvarna 360BT, potentially offering a touch more comfort in handling.
  • 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

  • The Husqvarna 360BT boasts a significantly larger fuel tank, holding 74.4 fl.oz. compared to the Stihl BR 700's 47.3 fl.oz. This allows for substantially more fuel storage and potentially longer operation, assuming similar fuel consumption rates for both engines.
  • With engine displacements that are nearly indistinguishable, both products are expected to consume fuel at similar rates per stroke, thereby delivering comparable output.
  • 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.
