My second Greenworks purchase was the blower. Now 8 lbs. can get heavy but not so heavy I gave up my goal. It is good for my weak, little old arms so that is a good thing. Once you get the hang of what to do, you can blow together a pretty good pile (small amount of edge raking) and get your burn on. I store it in the box for safe keeping...I love it! They are allowed to revise this review but I hope that is not common practice and it's totally not necessary.
Purchased this blower after being impressed by the mower and trimmer bought. I have an old corded blower, and this machine "blows" it away. It has really good wind power. The trigger lock to keep it on while blowing doesn't seem like much, but it really makes a big difference with hand fatigue. I do find myself using the turbo feature quite often, but I don't think that's a reflection of the wind power, I just have A LOT of leaves. There are 15 oak trees in my yard, so this blower definitely has it's work cut out for it.
As a side note, I now own a mower, blower, trimmer, and pressure washer. Since they're all the same voltage (60) I can swap batteries between the tools as needed, making things super convenient. Just something to consider if you're updating all your yard tools like I did.
After years of thinking I had to use a gas powered blower to get a strong air volume, with all the mixing of fuel, cleaning carburators, replacing pull cords & fuel lines, and winterizing, I finally decided to try the Greenworks 60V Axial Leaf Blower. I never thought I could get that much air from a battery-powered blower. It is amazing. The fact that you can lock on the trigger AND boost the air volume with a Turbo switch, makes it even more capable. By the time I am through cutting grass I am hot, tired, and sweating. I hated dealing with a gas blower that, half the time, needed some work before it would start. Now I just pull the trigger and start blowing. Liked it so much I'm now shopping for a Greenworks 60V string trimmer!
This review is actually for a model BL60l01 which does not appear on the list of products. Mine came with a battery. I just received this last week October 19th 2020 and so far so good. The power is great and I love that I don't need any gas. Just push the button and get the job done!
