Electric leaf blowers are the cheapest of all the three types, they also start instantly, require no fuel mixing or maintenance and aren’t limited by battery life.
Here we present you our most recommended models with ratings, prices and reviews:
With Vacuum
Our most recommended: Very popular leaf blower/vacuum – powerful, easy to use, durable and also with a speed adjustment dial.
Easy to switch between blower and vacuum: Also popular – powerful, easy to use and also to switch between the two modes.
Sweepers
Cheapest: Very popular sweeper designed for cleaning hard surfaces. Inexpensive, lightweight, very easy to use and with a 4-year warranty.
With 2 speeds: Nice little sweeper, perfect for all kinds of easier cleaning jobs. Lightweight, compact, very easy to use and with 2 speeds.
Comparison
Unfortunately, electric units come with the obvious disadvantage of the extension cord which you have to drag around and wind up afterwards – so they are ideal for smaller yards with few obstacles like trees, poles or furniture (so you won’t encounter too much cord tangling).
