What customers say
This 18V LXT blower earns high marks for delivering powerful performance that rivals corded models without the hassle of gas. Users consistently praise its impressive air volume and velocity, making cleanup of leaves and debris efficient on medium properties. The variable speed trigger and cruise control enhance usability by allowing precise power management and reducing user fatigue during longer tasks. The primary consideration for owners is battery consumption; high power settings rapidly drain the required two batteries. For optimal runtime, especially on larger jobs, users strongly advise pairing this unit with high capacity 5.0Ah or 6.0Ah batteries. Overall, its robust build quality and freedom from fuel mixing make it a valued, premium addition to any existing LXT collection.
