Leaf Blower Reviews & Buying Guides

Every landscaping crew finishes up their work with a good leaf blower. Our hands-on leaf blower reviews certainly compare the best backpack blowers as Pros rely on those the most. We also rounded up the best cordless leaf blower reviews and best gas leaf blowers as well. For those battery-powered leaf blowers, power and run-time take a front seat. We thoroughly test run-time and durability as well as power, speed, and air volume (CFM). Leaf blowers can range from powerful, high speed gas backpack blowers to cordless or battery-powered handheld blowers. All three types have their place though some cross over a bit. For example, some battery or cordless leaf blowers can use backpack batteries. Comparative reviews make for our preferred testing methods as it lets compare and contrast multiple models. Gas backpack leaf blowers still dominate when it comes to maximum blowing force. However, in handheld leaf blowers, some battery-powered tools have met or exceeded the power of gas. We hope to provide helpful reviews and articles for landscaping business owners so they can make good purchasing decisions.
