Leaf Blower Reviews

You can’t care for a lawn without a good leaf blower. The real question is which kind? Comparative reviews make for our preferred testing methods as it allows us to compare and contrast multiple models. Take a look at our buyer’s guides:

Blowers range from high velocity and powerful gas-powered backpack blowers to battery-powered handheld models. Some battery-powered models even use backpack batteries.  So far, battery has yet to catch up to gas-powered tools when it comes to true blowing force. Still, battery-powered models are truly useful—as can be seen by increasing sales. Municipalities and clients who want less noise are driving some of these factors. Landscaping business owners count on our leaf blower reviews when comparing battery-powered models to gas. We thoroughly test run-time and durability as well as power, speed, and capacity (CFM).
