I bought this to replace my backpack style 2 cycle blower (Greenworks won’t let name the brand). It’s quieter and environmentally friendly but that’s where it ends. Power wise, there’s no comparison. The gas blower is MUCH more powerful. I’m going to keep the Greenworks because it will be easier & safer cleaning off my house roof of pine needles but if it wasn’t for that, I’d send it back and get a refund.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I wasn't sure this blower would match my trusty but old gas blower for moving air but this blower, Model 2420802VTBT, has much more power. I have 4ah batteries for my mower so I'm using those for the blower.
I just received it and blew off a deck and patio and inside my garage. I like the fact that you can move very little air if you want to. This is great in a garage when you want to keep the dust down.
The cruise control knob is a nice feature when you want to maintain the same force at all times and you can set it to any power level. The turbo button really powers up the fan speed but the button is in an awkward position making it difficult to use. Battery insertion and release is a snap with the spring release lever. It is a bit heavier than the gas blower by not by much. The included shoulder strap would alleviate any weight issues. The blower tube and included nozzles are sturdy and the nozzles lock onto the tube.
I can't comment on battery life and imagine it would vary greatly with how much trigger you use for any particular job. My biggest job is cleanup after mowing and edge trimming so I'm hoping one 4ah battery fully chaged will cover it all.
Powerful, long-lasting battery and well balanced. Well engineered and well made. Very impressive blower, battery and charging system. Highly recommend.
I wanted a cordless blower as a replacement of a gas blower for leaves and small debris droppings from trees. Works really well. I think the "speed control" is the best feature as I can pass it from hand to hand without having to mess with the trigger. I am hoping it will blow the light weight snow from my sidewalks so I do not have to get the broom or shovel out of garage. It seems to have enough power to do that. I can only say good things about this cordless tool over the gas counterpart.
Daughter bought it for me when we moved into a Cluster Home. Low noise level does not disturb the neighbors. Easy to use and easy to maintain vs. a gas powered unit. Have recommended it to my neighbors.
Battery life is excellent. Trigger allows for total control of air from soft to turbo. Battery makes device so convenient to get out, quickly clear the deck and put device away. Much easier than my old corded leaf blower.
