Looking to get away from my stihl gas blower. The fumes just suck. Can any of you recommend a good cordless blower?

My EGO 56 volt is pretty good.

I’ve got the Kobalt 80v max and it works great.

I’ve the greenworks pro 60v and I like it. It uses the same battery as my lawnmower so I don’t have to worry about charging two separate batteries.

Plenty of power and the turbo button is nice.

Any recommendations on 18V models? I really don’t want one whose batteries I won’t use in any other tools.

I have and EGO and I am impressed. I also bought there 16" chainsaw your use around the house and hunting club. I don't use it enough to deal with a gas chainsaw sitting up for years at a time.

I know some people with the Ryobi and they are happy plus the batteries work with their drills and things like that so they can have multiple batteries charged

Last year, I bought a 40v Ryobi weed eater and fell in love with it after battling gas powered ones for years. The set came with a charger and (1) battery. My MIL bought me a Ryobi 40v blower for Christmas that came with (1) battery and charger.

I absolutely love these tools and will continue to compliment the set now that I have (2) batteries and (2) chargers.

Have had a Ryobi for a few years, like my Dads Dewalt much better

Another vote for Ryobi 40V. I have the hedge trimmer and blower and really like the fact that one battery fits both of them. This is year 3 and so far they still work well.

If you don't have a cordless power tool family

Milkwaukee
Dewalt
etc.


Then get an EGO. If you have a cordless power tool family, get whatever is in that family.

I'm leaning toward the EGO. Like the Ryobi but hearing it only has about a 20 min runtime. That won't cut it.

Get the EGO 650cfm. If you are in BR get it from K&D.

I have the DeWalt 20v. It's great for sidewalks, patios, driveways, smaller yards. They make a stronger version that uses their flexvolt batteries thats as strong as a gas blower

You need to make sure you get the more powerful blower from Ryobi. I bought a deal with blower and trimmer but the blower is a little weak compared to my one with a cord. But like others said very convenient. I have multiple batteries and chargers which is good since the blower will go through the battery pretty quick. And my yard isn’t very big.
