Richard:
I just bought an Echo blower from Home Depot after suffering over a year with a 125B Husky without any satisfaction. I have only used it twice, but when I go to use it, it starts and I do not have to full with the choke to get it to run. By the way, I took my Husky back to Lowes and happened to get a manager that told me they would refund my purchase price, after which I went and bought an Echo blower.

I bought a 125B Husky blower in 2010. Had trouble using it from the beginning. I took it back to Lowes, but they had a 30 day return policy and would not exchange it. I called Husqvarna and got a sassy gal in customer service and more or less got told I needed to take it to a service center for service even though it was brand new. Called a service center and spoke with a friendly owner and he said I should try running it with the gas cap not tightened. This worked for a while but I still had problems with getting the unit to run. It would crank but could not get any speed. Sounds to me like Husqvarna has a quality control problem and also a customer service problem. I am looking for another blower as I write this. Looked at comments on Sears, and their units are not what they used to be. Probably go with Echo or Stihl and throw away my Husqvarna.
