Comfortable to wear, maybe not as powerful as I had expected. Tooke 3-4 weeks to arrive. Must be more powerful than the handheld Greenworks blower I have since the battery runs out a little sooner
Very pleased! It is my second yard tool from you guys... I was searching for a blower specifically to use the same battery as my string trimmer. I've been most pleased with both tools now. Lots of power and battery life.
Short battery life, doesn't dislodge items from grass, and hard to control air flow. It is quick and easy to use and going, light to operate. More disappointed with the trimmer/edger, but still disappointed in this one. Need to move to a different brand - my only recommend is the lawnmower.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello KRV Houston,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the run time of this battery when used in this blower. To extend your run time, try using it on a lower speed when high speed is not a requirement. When used at high speed, approximately 15-20 minutes in this blower is an average run time for the supplied 2.5AH battery as this unit does draw quite a bit of power on high, however, the run time can be extended by using it at a lower speed. Alternatively, additional batteries can be purchased to extend the run time. This unit is compatible with all 80V Greenworks batteries. The higher the ampere-hour (AH) rating is, the longer the run time will be. We hope these help! We would be happy to carry on this conversation to offer some additional suggestions, if you are willing, please submit an email using the customer contact page on our website or give us a call at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS). All we ask that you have access to the unit so that we can complete troubleshooting with you and gather necessary unit information.
Love it compared to my gas blower, it has way more power and will run for approx twenty minutes with just my 2 amp greenworks battery that I use for my greenworks weed trimmer. Very happy with this electric blower. No more pull start or messy gas/oil to mix. Thank you greenworks for a great easy to use product. Like my weed trimmer too!
I have both a gas backpack blower as well as a corded electric one. This one is much stronger than the corded one even without turbo, but seems considerably less powerful even with turbo than my back pack blower which is rated a little over 700cfm. This is however much quieter, powerful enough and easy to use so i have not touched either of my other blowers since getting this. I pretty much always use the turbo mode and the only downside is that it drains the 5ah battery in just a few minutes of use. this is great to use on driveways and side walks, but if it ever came to yard clean up the battery probably wouldn't last to finish the job at one go.
