Since I already had a couple of batteries for other 60v Greenworks tools, it was good to be able to buy just the blower, in which the other batteries work perfectly. The blower is effective, and the price on the manufacturer's website was competitive to the price on retailers' sites, plus better availability.
Ease of use and features, Multiple Heads for blowing helpful. 5 star Blowing power very impressive, even with wet leaves, also distance in general leave blowing, excellent. 5 star Strap use/all the time 5 star Battery Life beyond expectations. 5 star Battery charging from 0 to 100% in fifteen minutes, very unexpected 5 star Speed control with Turbo. WOW. 5 Star Full unit weight is heavy. 3 star Price 4 star Well worth with all features/performance.
I have recommended and demonstrated already. 4.62 rating over all and a rounding up gets to an easy 5 for all around performance and easy of use.
It blows leaves across the yard. With skill you can blow them into a pile. Then your children can run through the pile and scatter the leaves, and you'll have to do it all over again.
I swear it has just as much if not more(especially with the turbo) than my gas powered blowers. I just love it! It can get a bit heavy after a long time using it… and mine was missing the shoulder strap but I think that would be helpful.
Blower is strong and I like the power booster. But with the battery installed it is exhausting to carry. I already busted the carry strap. So I constantly have to switch arms to keep going. One battery is usually enough but glad I have two.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Shanno,
Thank you for your honest feedback. This unit does not include a battery. With that said, the weight added would vary depending on the battery that you purchase. The higher the ampere-hour (Ah) rating is on a battery, the more run time it has to offer but it will also carry more weight. We are sorry to hear of the damage to the carry strap n most cases, wearable parts do only carry a 90-day warranty from the date of purchase. However, if you would please kindly consider sending us a direct message on info@greenworkstools.com we would be interested in hearing more about this experience to see how we can help. All we ask is that you provide your information in the subject line so we can help you best. Lastly, Greenworks now sells the exoFLEX Deluxe Shoulder Strap is specifically designed to support the weight of a leaf blower or string trimmer, without limiting the mobility & flexibility of the operator.
