Best Leaf Blowers with Battery Included

TL;DR: The Greenworks 40V Leaf Blower delivers 150 MPH airflow in a lightweight 3.27‑lb package, offers 15 minutes of runtime and a quick 60‑minute charge, making it a solid budget pick for home yard work.

The standout spec is its 150 MPH maximum air speed, driven by a variable‑speed motor with a turbo mode. At just 3.27 lb, 20 in long and 2.25 in tall, it feels nimble enough to swing around a patio without fatigue. It runs on a 2.0 Ah 40 V lithium‑ion battery and plugs into any of the 75+ Greenworks 40V tools you might already own.

Compared with the other four blowers in this roundup, the 40V model is noticeably lighter than the 60V (over 5 lb) and the WORX options (well over 7 lb). Its overall length is also shorter than the roughly 40‑inch frames of those rivals. While its 135 CFM airflow is modest against the 450 CFM of the 60V, the 530 CFM of the WORX, and the 700 CFM of the 80V, the lower power level helps keep the unit lightweight and affordable.

Reviewers consistently praise the variable‑speed dial and the adjustable airflow tip for giving precise control on decks and sidewalks. However, many note that the 15‑minute maximum runtime on high settings can feel short for larger yards, and the 60‑minute recharge window may interrupt longer cleaning sessions. The ergonomic comfort grip and push‑button start are highlighted as user‑friendly touches.

Beyond the basics, the blower includes a built‑in charger, a turbo mode for extra burst power, and a three‑year limited warranty that backs both tool and battery. Its battery compatibility across the Greenworks 40V ecosystem adds long‑term value if you plan to expand your cordless garden arsenal.

TL;DR: The Greenworks 60V Leaf Blower delivers 125 MPH airflow and 450 CFM at a lightweight 5.11 lb, but its 10‑minute turbo runtime may limit larger jobs.

What really stands out is the 125 MPH max air speed paired with 450 CFM of airflow, generated by a 60 V brushed motor that produces 7.4 Newtons of blowing force on high. Weighing just 5.11 lb and measuring 10.94 in tall, 39.96 in long and 5.83 in wide, the unit feels compact enough to swing overhead without fatigue. The instant‑start trigger and included rapid charger round out a package that feels ready to go right out of the box.

Against the four other blowers in this roundup, the 60V model is lighter than the WORX WG581 (7.7 lb) and the WORX WG583 (11.3 lb), while it tips the scales slightly above the Greenworks 40V (3.27 lb). Its length of 39.96 in matches the WORX WG581’s 40.0 in and is a hair shorter than the WG583’s 40.79 in, but it is longer than the 40V’s 508 mm design. Air‑speed and volume sit below the competitors – 125 MPH versus 180 MPH‑185 MPH on the WORX models and 170 MPH on the Greenworks 80V, and 450 CFM versus 530 CFM‑700 CFM on the others – reflecting its positioning for light‑to‑moderate tasks. Battery capacity matches the 40V’s 2.0 Ah but trails the dual‑cell 4.0 Ah packs in the WORX units and the 2.5 Ah pack in the Greenworks 80V, while its 60 V platform gives it a voltage edge over the 40 V rivals.

In practice, owners praise the cushioned grip and the fact that there’s no pull‑start; the lightweight feel makes it easy to maneuver around flower beds. Reviewers also note the limited 10‑minute turbo runtime, which can feel short when tackling a full‑size yard. Professional reviewers highlight the jet‑fan technology as a clever way to squeeze decent power from a relatively small battery, but they also point out that the blowing force is modest compared with premium cordless or gas‑equivalent models. If you have a small‑to‑medium lawn and value quiet, emission‑free operation, the 60V’s specs line up nicely with those needs.

Best for: Entry-level buyers or those on a tight budget — the Greenworks 60V Leaf Blower offers Battery Life: Up to 10 minutes (turbo mode)

Avoid if: You need advanced features or professional‑grade performance

TL;DR: The Greenworks 80V Leaf Blower packs 700 CFM airflow, 170 MPH airspeed and a 60‑minute battery life, delivering gas‑like power in a brushless, quiet‑focused design.

The standout spec is its 80‑volt brushless motor that drives 700 CFM of airflow at 170 MPH, a performance level the manufacturer rates as equivalent to a 26cc gas engine. With a 2.5 Ah lithium‑ion battery it promises up to 60 minutes of runtime on standard speed, and the rapid charger refills the pack in just 40 minutes.

Compared with the other four tools in this roundup, the 80V model is heavier than the Greenworks 60V blower (5.84 lb vs 5.11 lb) but considerably lighter than the WORX WG581 (7.7 lb) and far lighter than the WORX WG583 (11.3 lb). Its 700 CFM airflow outpaces the WORX units (350 CFM and 530 CFM) and the other Greenworks models (450 CFM and 135 CFM). Airspeed sits between the WORX machines (185 MPH and 180 MPH) and the lower‑voltage Greenworks options (125 MPH and 150 MPH). Noise is a trade‑off: at 74 dB it’s louder than the WORX WG581’s 57 dB but still quieter than many gas blowers.

Reviewers consistently praise the raw power, noting it handles wet leaves as well as a gas blower. Professional testers highlight the impressive blowing force and the smooth variable‑speed trigger with cruise control and turbo button. The most common complaints focus on the 5.84‑lb weight, which can cause fatigue during long sessions, and the drop in runtime to roughly 20 minutes when the turbo mode is engaged. Noise does climb on turbo, matching the higher‑end complaints about louder operation.

TL;DR: The WORX WG583 delivers 185 mph air speed with a brushless motor and 2 × 4.0 Ah batteries, but its 11.3‑lb weight and modest 350 CFM airflow make it a premium‑priced option for users who value power over portability.

The standout spec on the WG583 is its 185 mph air speed, backed by a brushless motor that promises longer life and consistent performance. Paired with a 350 CFM airflow, the unit also offers a 2‑speed (ECO/Full) control and a 3‑in‑1 blower/vacuum/mulcher design, letting you tackle leaves, debris, and mulch without swapping tools.

At 11.3 lb, the WG583 is noticeably heavier than the Greenworks 80V (5.84 lb) and the Greenworks 40V (3.27 lb) models, and it also outweighs the lighter WORX WG581 (7.7 lb). Its length of 40.79 in and height of 11.02 in make it slightly longer and taller than the WG581’s 40.0 in length and 10.6 in height. While the air speed exceeds the WG581’s 180 mph, the WG583’s 350 CFM airflow trails the WG581’s 530 CFM and the Greenworks 80V’s 700 CFM, indicating a trade‑off between raw speed and total volume.

Customer sentiment reflects a mixed picture: a 3.6/5 rating from 746 reviews suggests that many users appreciate the 3‑in‑1 versatility and the push‑button start, yet several reviewers call out the unit’s heft and the premium price as downsides. The dual 4.0 Ah batteries (totaling 8.0 Ah) are praised for delivering solid run time, though the manufacturer doesn’t list exact runtime figures.

From a technical standpoint, the 40 V brushless system provides efficient power delivery, and the included charger means you’re ready to go out of the box. The two‑stage impeller and 12:1 mulching ratio add extra utility for yard cleanup, while the push‑button start eliminates the need for a pull‑cord.

TL;DR: The WORX WG581 pushes 180 MPH air at 530 CFM, runs up to 90 minutes on two 4.0 Ah batteries, and stays under 8 lb for easy yard work.

The standout spec is the 180 MPH air speed paired with 530 CFM airflow, giving the blower a gas‑like punch while staying lightweight at 7.7 lb. A brushless motor and dual‑intake Sonic turbine fan keep the performance steady, and the built‑in turbo mode adds extra thrust when you need it.

Compared with the other four models, the WG581 is faster than the Greenworks 60V (125 MPH) and 40V (150 MPH) units, and just a notch below the WORX WG583’s 185 MPH. Its 530 CFM airflow exceeds the Greenworks 60V (450 CFM) and 40V (135 CFM) but falls short of the Greenworks 80V’s 700 CFM. At 7.7 lb, it’s heavier than the Greenworks 60V (5.11 lb) and 40V (3.27 lb) models, yet lighter than the WG583 (11.3 lb). Lengthwise it matches the 40‑inch standard of most peers, sitting just a hair longer than the Greenworks 80V (39.84 in) and shorter than the WG583 (40.79 in).

Users repeatedly praise the power‑to‑weight ratio, noting that the blower “blasts leaves effortlessly” and feels “light enough to carry for a whole yard.” Professional reviewers highlight the brushless motor’s durability and the variable nozzle’s ability to tackle wet or embedded debris. The most common complaint is the shorter runtime when turbo mode is engaged, which can force a recharge during larger jobs.

Technical extras include a 5‑year limited warranty, a modest 57 dB noise level, and instant start. The Sonic turbine fan with dual intakes is marketed as the most powerful WORX cordless blower, and the 2 × 4.0 Ah lithium‑ion batteries deliver up to 90 minutes of continuous use under normal settings.
