Below is their findings.

Echo PB-265LC
Est. $260

This mid-priced backpack blower is appropriate for most homeowners, according to reviews. Rated at 65 decibels, this is the quietest backpack blower in this price range, and it only weighs 14.5 pounds. It can't vacuumleaves, but reviews say it performs and handles well. The Echo ProLite has electronic ignition and cruise control, and it comes with a five-year warranty for homeowner use.

Reviews recommend this mid-price backpack blower as a good choice for most homeowners with big yards (and lots of leaves). Rated at 65 decibels, this is the quietest gasoline backpack blower in this price range, and although it weighs 13.3 pounds, it comes with a padded backrest and adjustable shoulder straps. It can't vacuum leaves, but reviews say it starts easily and performs and handles well. The Echo PB-265LC has electronic ignition and variable speeds with cruise control, and it comes with a five-year warranty for homeowner use. If your blowing can be done within 150 feet of an outlet, however, reviews recommend the lighter, quieter electric Toro Ultra Blower Vac 51599 (*est. $75), which can also vacuum leaves and chop them into mulch.
We found the best review of the Echo PB-265LC at Consumer Reports magazine, where it's ranked in relation to six other gas backpack blowers based on objective tests of performance in sweeping, loosening and vacuuming debris, along with ratings for handling and noise.
