I am disappointed in this blower. It was advertised as being lightweight, 10 pounds, but with Barry included, is 18 pounds. Furthermore, the airflow is less than anticipated. My neighbors Ryobi 650 CFM is significantly more powerful than the item purchased. I purchased Green Works because it was highly recommended under the AI Perplexity. In retrospect, I should have purchased the Ryobi.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Diamond jim. Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear the blower did not meet your expectations. We understand how important both weight and performance are when selecting a tool. The listed tool weight typically reflects the bare unit without the battery, while the total operating weight will increase once the battery is installed, which can vary depending on the battery capacity used. Regarding airflow, while this model is rated for high CFM output, perceived performance can vary based on factors such as nozzle attachment, operating mode, and the type of debris being cleared. Ensuring the nozzle is properly installed and using the appropriate speed setting or turbo mode for heavier debris can help improve results. If you would like assistance reviewing setup or exploring ways to optimize performance, our customer success team would be happy to help. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.

Hello Robert5832. We are sorry to hear you are experiencing shorter-than-expected runtime with your blower. On high speed (non-turbo), runtime can vary depending on conditions such as debris load, temperature, and battery condition, but consistently dropping to around 15 minutes may indicate something worth checking. We recommend first ensuring the battery is fully charged using the included charger until the indicator shows a complete charge, and confirming the battery contacts are clean and fully seated. It can also help to test the unit in different speed settings, as continuous high-speed use will significantly reduce runtime compared to lower settings. If the issue continues after a full charge cycle and normal use conditions, the battery may require inspection. For further assistance and diagnostics, the Greenworks Tools customer succes team can help review your setup and determine the best next step. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I opened the box, I had the blower running in 5 minutes. Easy charging, easy to carry, easy to blow the dirt and leaves. My push broom will last forever.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Durable, Effective, Powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought 3 days ago used right out of the box and does a fantastic job. Only takes about an hour to get fully charged. Used it on turbo mode for about 15 minutes and still had half battery left
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of nice features on this machine: very strong boost feature, stows away easily. Not as quiet as the equivalent Ryobi, but the greater power makes up for that.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] New to electric equipment and after research with my daughter, decided to go with Greenwood’s. Best decision. Just bought a trimmer and will be getting a lawnmower too!
