Really easy to assemble. You will want bigger batteries esp if using the high setting.

Light weight and more than sufficient capability for any type and condition of your Fall . Battery duration and recharging speeds is very good too.

My husband loved it.

I love this saw. It’s light, has great runtime, and the power is much easier to control than my similar performance gas chainsaw. I’m able to run this saw slow for precision work when I’m fabricating boardwalks and rough cut outdoor construction, and power through 8″ trees easily.

The new Makita battery powered Blower is a fine machine for your yard maintenance needs. This Blower does not come with the 2 batteries and the charger, they are sold separately. Included with the Blower is an adjustable plastic twist on tube for focusing the output air. You can move a lot of debris with this one. The batteries slide on and click underneath the unit. I was able to get about an hour of use before recharging. You’ll need to purchase the 18v LXT batteries separately. Overall, this blower is a great addition to my garage tools and really does the job well. I keep my driveway and sidewalks free of clippings after I mow the yard. I’ll even use this to get my outdoor fire pit roaring this coming winter.

The Makita cordless blower is very light and easy to operate. The assembly and operation are very straight forward. It has 6 speed adjustments, and can be adjusted while in use. It does not come with batteries and charger. I would recommend the Makita cordless blower.

The blower was a bit pricey but I’m glad I purchased it. Before I purchased the blower, I searched around on YouTube and found a lady moving gravel around with this blower. I was impressed and Makita has already won me over with their other brushless motor products (drills).I was able to blow out stubborn oak leaves and acorns out of my lawn from the neighbors oak tree. I was able to blow out cob webs from the wheel well of my Chevelle from five feel away.I cut down my post yard work cleanup by more than half the time!

Excellent product, no electrical cord to deal with or having to mix gas and oil and keeping up with maintenance on an engine. Pending on size of yard/property you may want to invest in extra batteries.

I looked and looked at cordless blowers, but many did not have enough power. I love this blower. Its works like a charm and I am so happy to no longer have to drag a corded blower around the yard. It is not as powerful as a corded blower but it does just fine. Big money but I feel it was money well spent
Agnes Carter (verified owner) –
Very handy and has great trigger control. I’m very happy with he purchase, after being hesitant to spent that kind of money. Expensive, but the quality is there and I’m very satisfied with the blower.

Used this blower to clean leaves off of my late wife’s gravesite. Worked perfectly; could not ask for better. Highly recommend this tool.
Henri Gulgowski (verified owner) –
Would give it 5 stars but when it is on full power, it drains the battery really quickly. This is to be expected, I guess but we will see how it handles the leaves this fall and even light snow come this winter.

I owned the Ryobi 40v jet blower but tired of juggling battery platforms so I got rid of it ( nothing wrong with it by the way ) Im on the makita platform bought this makita blower huge difference way smother it’s strong enough that if ur on a skate board and u turn the blower on at full speed it will push you best blower I ever bought
Emily Rosenbaum (verified owner) –
Just as powerful or more than any corded or gas blower. Much more convenient. Batteries last long enough for any homeowner and most landscapers.
