I would like to get something that has a leaf blower either included or to purchase separately.

I'm not sure but there a couple of escaped cons somewhere in NY that could answer your question.

Husqvarna for chainsaws and blowers.

Milwaukee for every other cordless hand tool.

Milwaukee's lithium batteries are so much better then Dewalts.

What about the Ryobi One+ system?

Lots of people swear by Ryobi, but I never had good experiences

My father in law recently bought an 18v Dewalt riding lawnmower. Claims it's the best on the market.


That battery wouldn't last 5 minutes.

I've never seen a contractor use a ryobi on a job site.

I have a small lawn business and now own three of those. Batts charge quick and mower is a beast.

I should have stated that these are for general home use. I want something that is versatile and has one battery for multiple tools.

They really aren't. They are nothing special at all actually, even compared to Ryobi for that matter. Which makes sense since the same parent company owns both.

If it's for home use you won't go wrong with Milwaukee or Dewalt.

They are owned by Stanley B&D, not DeWalt.

I don't have much input on your subject but I will say this, when it comes to buying tools, you always get what you pay for in the long run

Be a man and get yourself a gas powered blower! What are you a girl or something?
