Ideal for small patio/ garden runs for about 20mins on a full charge. Needs both batteries at once so don’t think you can use it charge the other.
That’s not a problem for my needs.
Great little unit very light and well balanced.
Very powerful.
It is a blower not a collector so you redistribute the leaves but it’s great for clearing decking, paths and drives.
It’s pretty powerful and does blow leaves and even wet ones as long as you use full power but be prepared for lower working time of no more than 20 mins ,I bought additional 4 amp batteries and get twice the run time which is acceptable but it’s. Costs 100 more it’s a nice weight and easy to use.
Does the job, been used quite a few times and found it to be very helpful in what I needed it for, I have quite a few wesco items, and all have lived up to their expectations, would definitely recommend.
My leaves were very wet and no problem in shifting them
Very pleased with purchase for the money. Not too heavy and does a very good job. Comes with two batteries (both need using together). Only possible improvement would be better shaped nozzle for more directional blow if required.
Bought this product because I’d used one before and found it excellent for ease of use. Just plug in the batteries and squeeze the trigger. Blower balances nicely in the hand, batteries last a reasonable time before running down. But best of all the variable speed is easy to control and quite responsive. When you just want to tickle the leaves along you can, and when you want to blast them just squeeze the trigger more and away they go! Well built and easy to operate.
Great blower,but Amazon won’t send spare battery to NI dissapointed
I have another blower with a single battery and the difference is night and day.
The harder you press the trigger the harder it blows.
It’s great in autumn too.
Batteries are fast to charge and I’ve used it several times, at 10 minute cycles and still have enough juice.
Very pleased

This leaf blower is well made and looks great. I find that it is both easy to use and very comfortable while doing so. It is powerful and effective, and re-charging is very efficient. Great piece of equipment, would highly recommend.

With this new Wesco blower I can do much more than clean the lawn from leaves.. I uploaded short video showing how good it is on cleaning the path. Usually i would do it with brush and it would take me longer than 30 seconds, surely.. I love its power and how lightweight it is.
Two 18V batteries on each side of the handle part gives enough power to sort my whole garden out, driveway and path outside my property..
Soon I’m up to trim the hedge so instead of brushing on the end of the job I will use this instead.. much faster and more accurate cleaning tool it is. Branches obviously I will take away but single leaves will be left for blower to deal with 🙂
I’m literally over the moon with this product. It came with non charged batteries and it took like 1.5h to charge both with charger provided. That’s fantastic. It saves me time on maintaining my garden. It’s so easy to use, even teenage boy or girl could use it without any struggle.
I really like this brand, I have drill as well which works well so far.
Highly recommended
I’ve been using WORX leaf blower for a few years so I was keen to try out this WESCO version. The first noticeable difference was the two rechargeable batteries, one isn’t spare, they both need to be attached to the blower, the charger also takes two at the same time. Wesco produces a few products that take two batteries so it’s worth finding out of this blower can be bought minus the charger and batteries if you already have them for another of their garden products.
Weight might be important to you. The WORX I have is 3.4kg this Wesco is 2.92kg. Assembly was easy enough and the two batteries slide in and they really do produce a hefty blast of air (the manual says 132KM/H, a bit too technical for me) but easily enough, on first use to dislodge bits of vegetation around some flower pots and a few leaves in the garden. Blowing out dust and debris from the garage was an obvious use and I also used it to blow some dirt off our conservatory roof, I hadn’t even tried that with the WORX blower.
What actually might be very important to you is how long the batteries last before needing a re-charge. The WORX had two speeds, normal lasted for about twenty minutes, high for about eight to ten. The WESCO has variable strength output depending on how hard the On/Off switch is depressed. Nowhere in the manual is there any reference to battery time, so if you had a big garden with plenty of trees producing a ton of leaves you would want a leaf blower that lasted some time before a recharge. I haven’t used the WESCO continuously, so far, to give an answer to that.
This is brilliant! Never heard of WESCO before but I am really poleased with the quality of this leaf blower. It looks very Makita-like in blue & black and the overall look and build leaves my in no doubt it is well made. The two battery power source is novel. I’ve not seen such a set up before, but have to say it certainly works. It is extremely powerful, but at the same time it is easy to feather the power so as not to blow the leaves up in the air and make a worse mess than you started with. I also have an area of my garden where there is a pebbled path right next to a wood chipped area and the wood chippings are forever spilling over the pebbled making things look untidy. Just a few quick passes with this leaf blower and all the chips were blown off the pebbles and back where they should be. No more kneeling down and hand picking the chips out of the pebbles.
It is also relatively lightweight too so it doesn’t tire your arms when using it for longer periods.
Really pleased with this and WESCO is a brand I shall look out for in future.
This cordless leafblower is very powerful and it does a great job – it is cordless as well and comes with a spare battery should you have acres of land – and need one on charge..
I previously had a leaf blower / sucker with a collecting bag ( it was a complete nightmare trying to fit the bag to suck leaves up so i never used that) ….all i would say is that this is a really strong and powerful leaf blower if you have a large garden or lots of tress that will shed leaves in the autumn – for the small or average garden it is a bit too expensive really to be economical.
This is a solid cordless leaf blower.
Well designed.
This is ideal for anyone with a decent sized lawn.
This blower will do just that.
It will blow your lawn free from any leaves.
It is very powerful to.
You get two batteries with this so no problem about being out of power ( if you keep the batteries charged !!! )
It is lightweight and so easy to use.
Great product.
So why the ‘but’ in the heading? This is a reasonable leaf blower, but nothing is outstanding from the dozen or so others available except the price. Around 20 more expensive than the average but without 20 worth of ‘outstanding features’ . Its good, balanced, comfortable in use with reasonable battery charge/life time but not outstanding except for the price, so it gets four stars from me.

I wanted to try this as a lazy person’s tool for nooks and crannies in the garden, rather than shift stuff out of the way, (table and chairs I’m looking at you) I thought why not blow the leaves, catkins, petals etc., out into the open for conventional sweeping up?
The device requires a small amount of assembly. It’s a little fiddly to get the two nozzles on but persevere.
There are two LiMH batteries that clip on either side and away you go.
In using this, which in principle is quite easy, point and blow, I’ve discovered two things, one of direct consequence and one of indirect consequence.
I found very quickly that you need a plan. Otherwise you chase the detritus fairly much back where it came from. But it does get chased very effectively. So basically “it works”. It’s not too noisy but you wouldn’t want it next to your ear. The cat wasn’t too impressed.
I noticed that these batteries very nearly fit my cordless lawnmower. This discovery made me realise that with cordless devices we are back to the dark days of phone chargers but worse. I am building a fine collection of gardening and DIY tools each one needing its own charger and the batteries don’t fit across manufacturer. It would be great if this changed and batteries became standardised.
