Three tips for buying a leaf blower
Leaf blowers, like many other garden machines, come in three different forms: battery-powered, electricity-powered, and fuel-powered.
Battery-powered leaf blower. Suitable for small gardens and those who do not wish to blow large amounts of wet leaves. The battery-powered leaf blower is best suited for dry piles of leaves, or just occasional damp leaves.
Electric. An electric leaf blower is a good choice for those who want a powerful leaf blower but want to avoid the disadvantages of a petrol-powered one. The price of an electric leaf blower is an advantage. However, it is important to remember that the garden cannot be full of things and hard to access, as you need to take the extension cord into account when working.
Petrol-powered. Both powerful and mobile. The disadvantages include things such as exhaust fumes/worse working environments, loud noises, and more maintenance.
Some leaf blowers come with controls, settings, and functions that allow you to do other things than just blowing leaves. For example, if you want to blow at a lower power to protect sensitive flowerbeds, or at maximum power to blow away gravel, you need to choose a leaf blower that offers this.
Even though a tidy garden is worth a lot, it may not be worth the moans from your neighbour. For this purpose, you should consider how loud your leaf blower can be. The design, type of fuel used, and size of the engine all affect the noise levels. Consider these features and read reviews comparing the noise levels. When you do the blowing, you should always wear hearing protection.
