Gas blowers are more convenient than corded but noisy and require maintenance plus gas/oil and they can be difficult to start at times.<br />Chrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-5471367714994099012020-11-05T07:55:05.777-06:002020-11-05T07:55:05.777-06:00While I'm not a big fan of leaf blowers, I can...While I'm not a big fan of leaf blowers, I can see where they would be useful in a yard with lots of trees dropping their load. Electric would be my choice too, for all the reasons you listed, but most importantly the weight and strain on the back working with that weight. Now, I don't do that anymore on the 18th floor we don't get too many leaves.Olivia Morris https://www.blogger.com/profile/00711607646097689874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-29880195056740786922020-11-04T14:10:17.779-06:002020-11-04T14:10:17.779-06:00We live in New England on a heavily tree-lined str...We live in New England on a heavily tree-lined street, so you can imagine how thick the leaves are on the ground around our house. Raking was a nightmare before we got our electric leaf blower. What a difference! Like you, my husband realized that a gas-powered blower would be too heavy for me to maneuver, and that a cordless blower wouldn't have enough juice to be up to the challenge.

Thank you for the review of the different types. It is important to know aspects like weight to carry as although cordless is always attractive, I simply cannot carry a heavy machine for very long with my back issues. It sounds like the electric one you chose is a good one for your needs.

He uses it to blow off my driveway and sidewalks after mowing, but for big jobs like leaves, his biggest complaint is it does not hold a charge long enough to finish the job. Your new electric leaf blower sounds like just the ticket for your lawn care needs. Thanks for this review, Sam.

I have often thought the cord made it harder to use, but I never considered how heavy a gas powered blower would be. You certainly brought up an excellent point. I would take the cord over weight any day! Thank you for the insightful review Sam.Sylvestermousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13690700963857028874noreply@blogger.com
