My gas blower recently gave "up the ghost" after 20 years of good service.I
plan to purchase another hand held gas blower. I use it for home
use(sidewalks/etc).

I would appreciate any input/suggestions etc about the quality and value of
various models available on the market. The brand I had was a Paramount and
as I stated above it performed very well and lasted a long long time.

Thanks for your assistance,

Bob
