How is the Blower feature on this? I would like for this to be a okay replacement for my crappy leaf blower

Pretty good. I use it often and it easily moves leaves, twigs and smaller rocks. If you have tan bark it'll completely blow that away so be careful.

Works very well. You'll need to have a long extension cord to move around, as the power cord on this model is quite short. Well worth the money.

I think it works fine. It works especialky well when you think you're in vacuum mode and then turn it on

Only other blower I've ever used is a gas powered Craftsman, but I think this is an excellent one. It's super easy to detach from the vacuum (a trigger under the handle), then just slide on the tool you want to use. It has lots of air flow, but how it compares to others I couldn't say.

Hmmm....it will do my sidewalks, front and back of the house, 2 decks and a very long driveway which is about 200 ft long before it is too weak to blow. This is a very light, easy to charge and use blower, but definitely not powerful enough to blow leaves off a lawn. I use it only for what I described and am happy with it; although with a 2 acre yard I would love something bigger. I am old :-) so it is great for me. Hope this helps...

I bought it knowing that it might not be powerful enough for me, but gave it a shot anyways since it was relatively cheap. It is great for blowing off the driveway and sidewalks after mowing, or blowing out random leaves and such from the garage. I would recommend getting the DigiPro model if you are wanting to use it for anything more than that. It is pretty useless if I try to use it in the fall to blow leaves in the yard.Pros:- Quite cheap if you already have a battery from other tools- Very quietCons:- Not really powerful enough to blow leaves through grass I bought it knowing that it might not be powerful enough for me, but gave it a shot anyways since it was relatively cheap.

Okay, for the love of all that is holy, DO NOT use a damn leaf blower to blow out a PC. That's just a wee bit too powerful for all of the components.

It is light weight and works good for lighter duty jobs. It would not be good for blowing wet leaves, etc.

Actually it is not that loud. The best description is a little louder than a blow dryer and not as loud as a leaf blower. I use it in my house. Hope this helps

The blower is an extra cost accessory. I purchased one later and found it easy to install.

Not too bad, you do have to hold it away from the leg but I don't find it to bothersome unless you going for long periods of time. I normally switch hands during the process. While I love this blower and it has plenty of power, I don't think it has the power of a two stroke.

I found that the battery is very easy to be taken out and reinstalled. It is nice not having to drag electrical cords around with this leaf blower. It is light and easy to haul around. Not a ton of power but works great for blowing off sidewalks and patios. I hope that helps.

Andrew, I recently contacted Worx directly to ask this question and was told they are working on developing one now. You might shoot the company an email to see where they are in the development process. I told them we would not buy a blower until they made one that used the same 40v battery as the trimmer we have now.

Joann there is no blower on this unit. I have it in use in a smaller mobile home amd the heat tranfsfers good without one. If you want more consistant heat flow to differant areas a blower would probibly be a good move.Bob

This blower will move a decent pile of dry leaves not a pile of wet leaves. I have an Echo PB-251 that is more powerful than this blower and it will not move a pile of wet leaves. If you are looking to move a pile of wet leaves you will not be happy with any hand held blower. If you are looking to move a few wet leaves you will be just fine with this blower. You need a powerful backpack blower if you want to move a pile of wet leaves.I suspect that some of the Stihl hand held blowers are more powerful than this blower.

You don't need a blower with this unit. Just the way it is.. I have used it for 2 winters. I keep it on level 2, (can go to 5 or 6), and it's good to keep my kitchen and all 2nd floor warm. One thing I recomend, if you are using this for home, is to air out the house twice a week to make sure you have enough O2 and to get rid of the moisture if any... If your house is not insulated well then you may air it out once a week...

Like all snow blowers (or throwers) it struggles in wet snow. Being light weight it's hard to push. Through regular snow it's fine. Except you have to push a bit then also. The back wheels aren't much help. The chute turn handle broke the first timeI used it so I have to manually turn the chute. Otherwise it's a fine machine.

Great blower, not so much for vacuum. It does not mulch much, most leaves stay intact. It just sucks the leaves in a very small bag that fills up fast. It never clogged though, I used a different bag from an older mulcher that attached to a trash can and it helped. Would definitely recommend for the blower, not the vacuum.

I think I got a lemon. My blower won't even blow leaves, so I can't answer your question.

This blower does a fine job on the lighter stuff and the battery lasts for as long as I need it to and then some. I can honestly say that I cannot tell you how long the battery lasts as I use it for about 20 minutes, put it away, and use it again without recharging. Does this unit perform like a gas powered unit, no, but it is less noisy, light weight, and thus convenient to clear off decks, sidewalks, or other similar jobs.
