Best Handheld Leaf Blowers Ranked

The most airflow per dollar among handheld battery kits here. A strong first blower for buyers not tied to a battery system.

A strong all round battery blower for half acre yards and heavy fall cleanup. Buyers already on EGO batteries get the most from it.

The EGO handheld for big lots and wet leaves, short of moving to a backpack. The second battery makes it a good value for buyers new to EGO.

A low cost route to near 700 CFM for buyers on the Greenworks 80V platform. Expect more arm fatigue than lighter 40V blowers.

A light, strong blower for buyers already on Greenworks 40V batteries. It moves as much air as many pricier 56V and 60V models.

The middle EGO handheld for suburban yards with real fall leaf loads. It is the one to pick when the 530 feels weak and the 765 feels like too much money.

A light, low cost kit for small to mid yards, especially for Worx 20V owners. It is the value pick among handheld battery blowers.

The cheapest way into real leaf clearing airflow with a battery included. Good for small to mid yards on a budget.

A heavy hitting handheld for Greenworks 80V owners with big leaf loads. Most buyers get better value from the 700 CFM kit.

A cheap, light corded blower for small yards near an outlet, with airflow that pushes big piles of dry leaves.

One of the strongest handheld battery blowers for owners replacing a gas model on a big lot. Lighter blowers suit small yards better.

A light, simple gas handheld for homeowners with a quarter to half acre who want more push than most battery blowers and a 5 year warranty.

A corded blower vacuum for small yards where you want to pick up and mulch leaves as well as blow them.

A sturdy pick for buyers who want a battery blower backed by a long tool warranty. EGO and Greenworks give more airflow for the money.

A low cost entry to the EGO 56V system for patios, decks and small yards. Buyers with heavy fall cleanup should look at the bigger EGO blowers.

A powerful corded blower that doubles as a leaf vacuum with a large bag, for small to medium yards near an outlet.

A very cheap corded blower for patios, decks and small yards close to an outlet.

A strong handheld for Husqvarna battery owners with medium yards. Plan on a second battery for big fall cleanups.

A long running blower for Toro 60V owners with bigger lots. Its weight makes it a poor pick for users who want a light tool.

The PB-2520 with cruise control, a second handle and a better air filter, for owners who blow for long stretches and want less hand fatigue.

A sensible pick for contractors and homeowners already on DeWalt FLEXVOLT. Confirm the included battery before buying.

A quiet, well balanced blower for buyers on Makita 40V XGT. Others will find more airflow for less money.

A light, cheap gas handheld for clearing patios, drives and small yards, with local dealer service behind it.

The BG 50 with an easy start system, for owners who find pull starting a chore and want a dealer backed gas handheld.

A low cost gas handheld with cruise control for small to medium yards, best bought with Husqvarna premix to get the 5 year warranty.

Best for owners already invested in Makita 18V batteries who want a quiet blower for patios and moderate leaf loads. Buyers starting fresh get more air per dollar elsewhere.

For trades already carrying M18 batteries who need a job site and driveway blower. Homeowners clearing leaves get far more airflow for the money elsewhere.
