Lots of people see leaf blowers as loud, fume-spewing wastes of fuel—but newer corded and cordless models offer plenty of power without those drawbacks, which apply to gas-powered blowers that are rarely necessary at home. Most folks should start their search by considering a corded leaf blower like the Toro PowerJet F700, the best blower we’ve found in our years of researching and testing leaf blowers in the woods of New Hampshire since 2014.

Toro PowerJet F700, the best leaf blower

Toro PowerJet F700

The best leaf blower
The electric Toro F700 is light, with an easy one-handed speed control, and it moves leaves with a fury. At less than $60, it’s a deal—as long as being tied to an outlet works for your property.
We recommend
Worx WG521 Turbine 800 Leaf Blower, an excellent corded alternate

Worx WG521 Turbine 800 Leaf Blower

An excellent corded alternate
The Worx WG521 is more powerful than the Toro, but the handle design makes it harder to control and more tiring on the arms.
Another good choice
Ego LB6504 Power+ 650 CFM Blower, the most powerful cordless blower

Ego LB6504 Power+ 650 CFM Blower

The most powerful cordless blower
The Ego’s nearly 30-minute run time is among the longest of the cordless blowers we’ve tested. It has easy-to-use controls, a lot of power, and a precise airstream—but it’s a little heavier than our corded picks and a lot more expensive.
Another good choice
Ryobi Ry404014 40V Whisper Series Leaf Blower, not as powerful, a little quieter

Ryobi Ry404014 40V Whisper Series Leaf Blower

Not as powerful, a little quieter
This cordless Ryobi doesn’t quite match the Ego LB6504 in terms of power and ergonomics, but it has about the same runtime and it’s a little quieter.
Another good choice
Worx WG584 40-Volt Power Share Turbine Cordless Leaf Blower, lightweight, long run time

Worx WG584 40-Volt Power Share Turbine Cordless Leaf Blower

Lightweight, long run time
The cordless Worx WG584 is not as powerful as the other cordless options, but it’s lightweight with a long run time.
Another good choice
Stihl BR 350, the midsize sedan of backpack blowers

The midsize sedan of backpack blowers
For properties larger than an acre in size with lots of wooded areas, the Stihl BR 350 offers useful design touches and moves leaves better than the competition.
