I got a hand me down br600 so im biased. Its a beast about 15 years old, been through 2 carburetors and got another carb on the way. I definitely would like to have the pull cord on the side though, its a pain in the arse starting it then putting it on and then if for some reason i stop it and no one is around to give me a pull i have to take it off to restart
I’d you are skilled, the 600 is a beast, especially during warmer months. If you make small piles and pick up as you go, the 600 is quick and light. 800 for snow and wet weather sludge, I’d opt for the 800. Either way, I’m not turning off my blower to talk to a client unless they have something in their hand like money or a soda
800 is the way to go but nothing wrong with the 600. As far as turning it off when the clients comes out, you should always put your clients first. After all they are the ones paying you and hiring you after all.
@@mannyluis7961 I use it all the time, I wouldn't buy anything different going forward besides something smaller just for blowing grass clippings when mowing.
I think to become a Stihl dealer you have to sell at their price and any br800 I have ever seen for sale is $650 and the br600 is $550. The side start is around $50 more.
David gets this correct. The BR 800 C-E shown here is $700. Add in the $25 of oil to double the warranty. Add in 9% sales tax. That's just shy of $800. The BR 800 X is $650, but lacks some of the convenience features.
That side pull definitely is a time & energy saver too🔥
Oh yeah definitely worth saving up a bit more and getting the 800C
Facts. I have the 800x and sometimes it be a pain starting up after talking to a client
I have the same and same thoughts about those two!!
Yes sir, save up more and go with the 800!

@@mannyluis7961 to many “Karen’s” nowadays, I think I’ll just keep the blower running, but appreciate your service 🫡
Stihl br 800 is the best of the best 🍻🇺🇸
I think so! 🤑

I just got a BR800ce and it blows a lot more than the one you have….didn’t seem like yours was revving much?
It struggled at first because it wasn’t warmed up but you can definitely feel the difference between the 800 and 600
Bro if you paid 8 to 900 for that br800, you got ripped off. They normally go for 650ish new.

we paid $800 for the 700 because we use stihl back packs for clearing snow @@67L48
