The blower was powerful and worked fine but only for 10 minutes. Luckily I had 3 other batteries but I was really disappointed with the run time. I was going to buy a snow blower but I’m scared of the having a similar ptoblem

Hello Steve boy. We are glad to hear you were impressed with the power of your blower, though we are sorry the runtime did not meet your expectations. Battery runtime will depend on the load that is put on the unit (i.e., Turbo Mode). You can typically expect about 30–40 minutes of runtime under normal use, and between 10–15 minutes when Turbo Mode is engaged. Battery performance can also vary depending on temperature and the type of debris being cleared. For longer runtime, we recommend using lower speed settings for lighter tasks or pairing the tool with higher-capacity batteries such as our 4Ah or 5Ah options. Please do not let this experience discourage you from trying our snow blowers, they are designed with optimized power management for cold-weather performance. Our team would be happy to help you find the best setting up for your needs through Live Chat on our website or by calling 1-888-909-6757.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought to replace an old Greenworks blower. This new one is fantastic. Volume of air is incredible. Will blow wet leaves at less than full speed.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Blew out all my gutters in like 5 minutes! Plenty of power, did t even realize it was on normal power most of the time and did t even need the turbo higher setting. Quick recharge.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This renewed blower has more power and battery life for my yards needs. Out of the box it looked new. The only sign of renewed product was the battery had someone’s initials engraved in the plastic. Everything else looked new.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Simple to use, powerful, and gets the job done!
Doesn't last as long as a gas blower with a full tank, but the battery charges VERY quickly, so not a major issue. Runs for plenty of time to build a few piles, then you can put the battery on the charger while you deal with those piles, and by the time they are dealt with, the battery is ready to create more!
Optional strap is probably a good idea, blower isn't crazy heavy (most of the weight is the 80v battery), but it does tire out the arm/hand of a reasonably fit 56 year old man!
MUCH quieter than a gas powered leaf blower, so early morning, late evening tasks with this blower can be performed without driving the neighbors crazy!
Garage has 3 Greenworks tools in it now, all using the same 80v battery (16 inch chainsaw, 20 inch snow blower, and now the leaf blower)!! Likely going to add at least a couple more!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Powerful I stand in the center of my driveway and it clears all leaves twigs and saw dust from chainsaw! The chain saw by the way is also, an 80volt 18” Greenworks! I own 4 80volt outdoor tools weed wacker and extended hedge trimmer love it so, much I bought the 36” 80volt hand trimmer as well! Battery power is awesome lasts around 45 minutes! I have 4 batteries and rotate charge them fast! Thx Greenworks!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Appears to be a quality product. However, it may too heavy to carry and maneuver for very long. Perhaps a carrying strap would be of value.
