batteries are totally crap
on May 23, 2024

battery will not charge after nine months of light use. the battery for the b&d string trimmer that i bought at the same time also has stopped beingable to be charged. either b&d qualitty control is non-existent, or they are intentionally making totally crappy batteries. either way, avoid!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that this sweeper was powerful enough and had enough battery life to let me blow off my sidewalk (on a corner lot), driveway and walkway after mowing. I had been concerned about battery life, but since I have other 20V Black and Decker tools I knew I had enough spare batteries. I have not had to use one yet. The sweeper is light enough that it isn't tiring to use. It has enough power to loft grass clippings off the sidewalk and up onto the yard. I now keep it handy for quick cleanups like blowing dirt out of the garage or off the patio.
I would recommend this to a friend!

2 failed in quick succession

First one lasted for years! 2nd and 3rd (bought this year) failed immediately. I hate that all my tools use this battery system and I can’t get a blower to work. The the on switch completely broke on both after I tossed the box and was too perturbed to try and return. Make a new model so I can buy one!!!!

Hold off till the next model
on December 20, 2024

Each one comes with a bad battery right out of the box. We got two in succession and both came with a bad battery. Batteries were tested in known working chargers too and still came out bad.
However, since we have several B+D tools that use these batteries, and some newer batteries, we tried both blowers out. They are BAD. The old model with impeller perpendicular to the ground had a larger impeller that moved more air. This newer model has a smaller impeller and cheaper construction, you can feel it in the switch. My wife joked that her hairdryer moves more air. This new model toutes more CFM & speed than the old model, that's a lie.
If you use this battery ecosystem for your around-the-house tools, you may be better off waiting for the newer model if you can afford the wait. Stanley tools leaned the heck out of this thing to try to get maximum returns. Maybe the next one will be better, but I doubt it. It's a race to the bottom.

lightweight , and easy to use.
on November 29, 2025
Posted by: howell
This is lightweight, and I like the power boost button on top for stronger blowing. Not as strong as some electric or 40 v, but light to use. The power switch gets harder to turn on and up, but can fix with something small and straight to go in and push up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful but so light even a child can use this

I’ve owned and used this leaf blower for a while. The best things about this blower is how powerful it is and how light it is. That’s especially helpful when you have little ones that want to help. Even a small child can use this safely and that makes their day.

This is a good little blower!

My wife wanted a easier to handle blower for small jobs. I now find myself using it just as much! It is faster to grab this little blower for quick work than to drag out the big blower. This one has plenty of power for clearing the decks and truck beds or blowing leaves off the cars.
I would recommend this to a friend!
