Less noisy Bigger fuel tank	Higher CFM Higher MPH 4-Mix engine

Feel, Fuel & Noise

Belonging to the line of Stihl blowers, both the BR 350 and the BR 600 should have a shared standard of manufacturing and attention to detail.

These two products are constructed as backpack blowers, allowing you to comfortably carry their big engines and massive fuel tanks. On both products, the throttle is situated on the blower tube, giving you the advantage of having your left hand available for other uses.
Both products are gas-powered blowers, providing a reliable power source that can be refilled in seconds, granting you the flexibility to navigate through expansive outdoor areas effortlessly.
At 22.3 lbs compared with 22 lbs for the Stihl BR 350, the weight difference is minimal, so either option should feel nearly the same in day-to-day use.
Although the difference in noise rating between the Stihl BR 600, registering at 75 dB, and the Stihl BR 350, at 74 dB, appears minor, it can impact both the operator's experience and nearby neighbors.

CFM & MPH

The Stihl BR 600, featuring a CFM of 677, surpasses the 436 CFM of the Stihl BR 350. With its superior airflow, the Stihl BR 600 offers an enhanced leaf blowing experience, enabling you to achieve faster and more efficient results.
With an MPH of 238, the Stihl BR 600 moderately surpasses the 201 MPH of the Stihl BR 350, offering slightly superior airspeed for enhanced performance in blowing leaves on grass or lifting heavy debris and wet leaves.

Engine specs

The Stihl BR 350 features a larger fuel tank, offering 57.5 fl.oz. compared to the 47.3 fl.oz. of the Stihl BR 600. As a result, you have the advantage of storing more fuel, potentially extending runtime, assuming similar fuel consumption rates for their engines.
In comparison, the Stihl BR 350's engine displacement of 63.3 cc is slightly surpassed by the 64.8 cc of the Stihl BR 600. This indicates that the latter may consume marginally more fuel per stroke, potentially resulting in slightly greater power output. Each of these blowers requires a fuel/oil mix to operate, as the Stihl BR 350 features a 2-stroke engine, and the Stihl BR 600 is powered by the Stihl 4-Mix 4-stroke engine.
