    Ryobi has a leaf bower that does 730 cfm with 190 mph for $270. Comes with two 40v 4ah batteries. I bought this and absolutely love it. The power is unmatched and surprisingly quiet. This is my first Ryobi I have ever bought. Impressed!

    Absolutely well done. I received a leaf blower for Christmas and wasn't sure about the quality. Normally would have spent hours researching several sites and analyzing reviews. This video gave a great overview in a short period of time. Worth the watch if contemplating purchasing a leaf blower.

    Super well done! Objectivist and subjectivist results and also helpful in explaining your neighbor's biases. Gary already has a powerful corded blower, so a small jobsite one like the Ridgid fits his needs. Many videos you see only compare the top or the best and not what the actual average homeowner would actually shop for and buy. So thank you! I'll be putting in my order for the Makita now and will go perfectly with my Makita weed eater, which also great to use.

    Found your link on a Home Depot review. Great video very thorough. I tried my friends Milwaukee and really liked the trigger response and power. Even though most of my tools are Dewalt I think I may be picking up the Milwaukee blower.

    this is so awesome - thanks. I have a big yard and it's mostly all me caring for it. I was a flight attendant for 40 years and my thumb joints are freaking shot. Knowing the spec's on weight and on/off switch were super helpful!

    Thank you for your review. I have the Makita blower which came as a bonus on the purchase of their battery lawn mower. The blower doesn't come with the gutter or leaf attachments which need to be purchased separately which I did. The leaf blower attachment I found made quite a difference in removing leafs and controlling their movement. The surprising thing about these attachments is that they only cost a few dollars and I don't know why they are not included with the blower. Just one note the leaf attachment needs the gutter attachment to fit onto the blower.

    Got the Milwaukee at $89 using a hack couple yrs back. Now it's on sale (Nov 2022) for $199 With 2 - 5 amp battery and charger - really good deal. It's so powerful that it can push your arm away on certain angles on full throttle. Love the freedom from the cord.

    I was stuck between the Dewalt and Toro before this video only because of Dewalt , Toro power tool & battery collection but now seriously considering Makita with battery adapter you mentioned. Maybe even Ridgid just cause of price point to use in shed , garage
    and motorcycle drying. Thanks for the great comparison video to you and neighbors . Would love to see a similar cordless trimmer video . Now I will look up you battery adapter and figure total cost comps. 😊👍🏽

      I have the dewalt only because I have 6 dewalt batteries. I can do my entire yard with 3 batteries. I'd rather have gas, but this is okay until then, but awesome for cleaning the gutters. The concentrator nozzle is just a restrictor, and I think the thing operates better without it. For what it's worth, I'm blowing leaves of a couple of

    That milwaukee sounds just like mine and it was defective and at times was unbearable to use because it was screeching and making sounds like yours.. Take it back and exchange it. After searching online I found other people with the same issues. Also, on mine I noticed if any air flow was partially restricted from the front it would make an even worse loud sound. My replacement is much better But I want to say the RPM is lower. Ill be ordering one of the air speed testers to see if it’s atleast at the specs advertised. Good luck, and thanks for the video.

    Makita is my favorite. Dewalt has a horrible high pitched noise. Surprisingly Milwaukee is slightly less powerful than the Makita. Milwaukee normally goes balls to the walls with power.

  • @richardefriend
    @richardefriend 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Not exactly an open competition because these were all only the piddling 18V versions, entirely skipping over the real powerhouse higher voltage (like 40v or 54V) varieties. I just bought Ryobi's 190 MPH 730 CFM 40V version. It's not the absolute top top in terms of MPH and CFM (although it is quite close to the top), but its quietness makes it the number one choice for me. The fact that I already had many of Ryobi's 40V batteries also didn't hurt, but there's nothing even close in terms of power AND quietness. And your neighbors will love you too.

    I wanted to see how long a charge lasts for each with their own batteries.

    • @DIYMark
      @DIYMark  ปีที่แล้ว

      I took the battery out of the equation because it is so hard to compare. I was shooting for a level playing field. For example, the DeWalt blower ran 10 percent less using a 5Ah DeWalt (9min 55 sec) branded battery than a 5Ah Makita battery (11min 40 sec). Lots of possible reasons for the difference.

    • @chuckwalla2967
      @chuckwalla2967 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The performance variation of the batteries should've been included in the equation. The point of interest for me is how long can a user expect them to run per charge if they buy one of these brands.

      Great job reviewing the bunch, I’ve used the Makita extensively and it’s by far my favorite blower on the market and a quick tipIf you guys keep an eye out at tractor supply, they will clearance the Makita xbu03z at 49$ & the flex volt Dewalt axial blower kit for 90$ but when looking switch stores to check price they’re all independently owned so YMMV

    Were you using the 60V battery with the dewalt?

    • @DIYMark
      @DIYMark  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      All blowers were using the same 18v 5Ah Makita battery. The idea was to see how each of them performed with the same power source. I suspect you would get a lot more run time using a 60v flex-volt battery, but I didn't test it.

    • @fluffhead08
      @fluffhead08 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@DIYMark since this is designed for a 60V battery I would anticipate it didn’t come anywhere near its full power since that is what the motor is optimized for. Not really a fair test unless you provide the correct input voltage. I could be wrong and the tool handles the 60V batteries as if they are 3 20V batteries in parallel (extra capacity).
