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.
  • 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 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's MPH of 232 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 weight of the Stihl BR 700, which is 23.4 lbs, slightly exceeds the 23.2 lbs of the Husqvarna 360BT, and will therefore require you to carry around slightly more weight.
  • The Husqvarna 360BT produces 97 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 360BT's 74.4 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.
  • These two products' engine have a nearly identical engine displacement. Thus, they should consume comparable amounts of fuel per stroke and provide similar 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.

Other features comparison

Vacuum ability

Neither the Husqvarna 360BT nor the Stihl BR 700 has the ability to vacuum leaves. Thus, you will require another method of leaf collection.
