Ego Leaf Blower,Handheld,15.98 lb. Weight LB5804

At first I was a little skeptical buying a battery powered blower. My 17 year old Craftsman blower was starting to fall apart and required maintenance every season. After diagnosing that the fuel lines were broke at the start of this spring, I threw in the towel. I read alot of reviews and watched alot of youtube videos before making my purchase. This thing is awesome! Has twice the power as my old gas blower and requires no maintenance. I can even blow the garage out without leaving an exhaust smell. It has enough power that you can feel the thrust it produces when turbo is kicked on. I now own the lawn mower and edger. Happy with my new equipment.

Purchased 4 weeks ago. Strong enough for everyday cleanup. Too heavy for extended work without the strap (I'm 6', 210 lbs., athletic). Your 5-year old daughter could beat me arm wrestling after running this thing for 15 minutes! The durable plastic body is lightweight and well made from quality materials. The battery makes it heavy. Mind you I'm not complaining. The 5.0 mAh battery with a 3-year warranty is what make the system so appealing. The reason we buy something like this is convenience. It just does what you want when you want it to. No buying gas, priming, pulling, changing oil, changing spark plug, buying a new one when none of that works. Grab it and pull the trigger! Need I say more? While the price is premium, its construction is solid with no yet discovered weaknesses. While a bit heavy it's fairly ergonomic. Most will be happy with its performance and convenience for normal work. Best Uses include blowing: porches, patios, decks, garage, driveways, walkways, docks, landscape beds, drying the dog, removing water from windows, cars, boats and the like. Did I mention how cool it looks? Don't expect it to clear an acre of fallen leaves after a rain shower. As of June 2018, I don't know of a battery powered blower that will give you the force a 2-cycle backpack blower can.
