First time buying a leaf blower. Power is sufficient for most jobs. The turbo button comes in handy for short bursts when you need them. And the locking dial so you don't have to hold the trigger the whole time is convenient. Battery life is decent, but we also have a compatible greenworks battery from our mower we can use if this runs out during an extended session.
This blower is very powerful! Battery last a long time. I was amazed at how well it blew all the walnuts that had fallen in my yard. NO raking needed!! SOOOO when we had our first snow fall I tried it out. SHOCKED that it blew the snow just as well as my small snow blower!! I don't think it would work on a heavy wet snow though, but it did great on the light dry snow that fell. Love the Cruise Control Lever and the Turbo Button! It is a bit heavy for me though, but I'm an old lady so it may not be for others.
I purchased approximately 1 month ago. I live on a large farm and mainly use this to clean out the garage and clear of the concrete pad. We have chickens do they crap everywhere. I was really surprised the first time I turned it on. The power is quite good and the turbo makes it great. The battery was another suprise. It lasted plenty long enough for me to finish these tasks. I don't think I'd want to try and pick up a yard of wet leaves with this, but dry leaves in a smallish yard wouldn't be a problem. Shipping was quick. Price was fair. And it's light enough my wife can use. She always struggles starting gas blower, and she had shoulder surgery. No pull to start is great for her.I
