    The battery was missing from the box. Previous customer return? Contacted Best Buy and they were clueless. Ended up buying another battery. Ridiculous.

      Hello Shahizzle. We are sorry to hear of the issue you experience and that you decided to return the blower. The most common issue related to a unit not starting is the connection or battery charge. If the charge is full, please make sure the battery clicks into place. Intermittent function can occur when the battery has not been correctly seated into the compartment on the tool. We would also like to go over the starting procedure. To start the blower squeeze the trigger the speed is adjusted by the pressure applied to the trigger (please review the video below). In the future or for other readers, if you ever experience an issue or have any concerns when using one of our products, please contact us at your earliest convenience to see how we can help. We can be reached using the customer contact page on our website (www.greenworkstools.com) or at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS). Thank you.

    Awesome but heavy/awkward.

    My previous blower gave up the ghost after about 20 years (it was pretty cheap so I wasn't too distraught), and I needed a new one obviously. I have a few other Greenworks tools and thought I might as well get their blower as well. This blower is just as good as my other Greenworks tools and is an outstanding tool just on its own. My only problem is that with the serious upgrade in power came a lot of weight and both the power/weight can make chores a tad awkward at times. TLDR: Awesome blower for yard work but the power and the weight can make things awkward and tiring at times. Could use a top handhold. I'll start out by stating that the Greenworks 80-volt 750 CFM blower is a heck of a lot more powerful than my previous blower (like several steps up the power chain), and with that comes a much bigger size and a much heavier blower. The weight doesn't bother me as much as the power/awkwardness. You could easily stand on a skateboard and use this as an 'outboard motor'! This thing is no joke. I would have appreciated it if the blower had a top handle like a gatling gun or some other yard tools to help keep things steady and to balance out the stress on my body. Granted, this is really only a problem for me when the blower is going full power which is perhaps half the time that I was using it, but still. My bigger issue is that I have lost my helper because this thing is too big/powerful for her. My wife isn't a huge fan of yard work but she did like following me around with the old blower and helping tidy as I go. Now she is on the petite side but is pretty strong (does a lot of yoga and hiking), but this Greenworks blower is a bit too much for her. She never even got it fired up to 100%. Heck, I'd probably still be looking for her if she had gotten there and flew off into the next county over. My only other gripe is the noise with the tapered nozzle (versus the flatter condenser nozzle that also comes with the blower). When you get this thing going with the tapered nozzle on, it sounds like one of the jet engines I was always around on the flightline in the Air Force. Heck, maybe that's what this thing really is! A handheld jet engine! Anyway, you should probably use ear protection if you are going to use this thing with that attachment. The noise wasn't as piercing with the flat nozzle, which is great because that is the one I prefer anyway. Oh, and before I forget, while the 80 volt battery that comes with this thing is huge, so is the charger, and it pumps that battery full of juice in no time. The much smaller batter from my old blower took WAY longer despite having less than half the capacity/power. All in all I'm happy with the Greenworks blower. The power and control options make it FAR better than my previous blower (or any other one I have ever used), but I might have to see about rigging up an extra handhold for better ease of use.

    Fantastic, get bigger Ah battery to extended time

    This is a fantastic leaf blower, easily as powerful as our old gas and wildly more powerful than our old corded electric. Get a higher Ah battery (same 80 voltage, just bigger storage/run time!) and you will be master of all leaves, grass clippings, and on high power, landscape gravel and garden mulch too. Whoa. Using the 2.5 Ah battery, run time will be short especially at full speed - maybe 15 minutes? I haven’t timed it, but for fall leaf cleanup under deck, bushes etc, I just use our 8Ah battery from our Greenworks lawnmower. Yes, the larger battery is heavier, but I’m a 120 lb woman and have no trouble “wearing” blower on my shoulder and swinging to aim jet. Speed adjust is a simple thumb push as you work. Easy peasy. No more fumes, brain numbing noise and heavy gas backpack for me. I love this blower.

    Excellent gas powered alternative

    This is one of the only battery powered blowers I have seen that actually gives a gas blower a run for its money. The max blowing speed is impressive. You will drain the battery pretty quickly on max which is engaged by using the turbo button. Moving leaves, cleaning my patio and drying my car haven't made that necessary anyway. Even without the turbo it's more than capable enough to deal with anything a gas powered one would be needed for. The build quality is good. It's mostly plastic but it has a sturdy feel to it. The ergonomics are good and it's comfortable to hold for long periods without fatigue but it's certainly not light because of the large battery needed. I especially like that it can be used at various power levels. I have been slowly phasing out our previous 40 volt line of products which are great but less powerful. The trigger lock feature is especially useful because you can lock in the exact power you need without having to hold the trigger and have much more control around mulch and other more delicate areas. Based on my use so far and my previous years of using their products for all my lawn care needs this is well worth the value.
