Customer Reviews
Works well for light duty clean up
For me it works well to clear up leaves around the pool. It is much smaller than the usual electric or gas power blower. The air flow is much more narrow but still powerful. It small and light enough that my six year old daughter can handle without difficulty. Added bonus, it works wonderfully in starting a charcoal fire. It take less than 1/4 time to do so.For major clean up I still prefer my old Homelite gas power blower.
Top Flight
After reading the other reviews, I wasn't sure this short nuzzled product would have the power to clean my patios and walkways. I found it more than adequate, however one could not expect it to move wet, sticky leaves that are common to other areas. The variable speed feature is quite useful and I have been able to use it to clean the chaff from my beans without blowing the beans away as well as dust my shop without disturbing things on the tables and shelves. The lithium-ion is definitely the way to go. It gives several minutes of time and recharges in 20 minutes. I'm very pleased with it as I have been with all my other Makita tools.
nice tool
I have both the A/C version and the battery version of this tool. The A/C version is more power despite air flow volumes being specified as near equal. However the battery version is still very useful for most shop cleanup jobs and the freedom of not trailing an electrical cord is very nice.
