Default Leaf Blower?

Anyone got any advice on getting a new leaf blower? I've started hunting for a new one i was having real problems during the first few months of Autumn/Winter last year, so thought it would be best to get prepped in advance.

Any help people could over would be greatly appreciated

I have a cheapo electric Power Devil one which works as a vacuum or blower. It works well enough, though works best when the leaves are dry.

I've used a petrol blower in the past and it was very, very noisy with a lot of vibration.

I use a Homelite petrol blower from B&Q. It`s light, compact and easy to use. It`s only available online at www.diy.co.uk It cost just under £85 delivered.
