My girl killed my leaf blower

It started slowing down, sparking, smoking, then POP! Done. Pretty cool.

Any suggestions on a good ELECTRIC brand?

Thanks all

No suggestions on a brand for you, but when dealing with her I'd suggest the old "eye for an eye" approach.

Werd that bitch has to pay!
I at least hope you beat her for it, or else she will never learn.

It says right on the warning label to not use as a vibrator.......

But really, if your girl is doing your yardwork, I would buy her another one quickly.

WTF was she doing with your leaf blower

Are you one of those lazy guys that lets his wife/GF cut the grass and shovel the snow?

Picked it up yesterday, works great. Nice balance and blows nicely. Everyone there told me not to by the Black/Decker leaf hog.
