This is a great price on a pre-owned blower kit. Comes with a battery and charger. In my experience the pre-owned items look just as good as brand new and function like brand new too.
Free shipping and 1 year warranty included.

Blower MPH Vs CFM: Which One is More Important? [opereviews.com]
Airspeed is important because it takes more of it to move heavier objects. Dry grass is one thing. pebbles, mulch, and wet leaves are another. Air volume is important because you need more to move debris in a larger area. But is blower MPH or CFM more important? Consider a couple of examples.
Take a straw and blow air through it at 300 MPH. You'll make an impressive mess with your glass of milk or make a pretty effective blow dart gun, but you'll accomplish very little in your yard. You're in a low CFM situation, and the airspeed can only affect a small area.
On the other side of the coin, let's say that you can produce 20,000 CFM but only get 15 MPH out of it. You get a nice breeze for a hot day. You and four of your closest friends can stay cool, but you're only going to be moving the lightest sawdust. The low airspeed means you're not moving much weight around.
It's fine for blowing out the garage or leaves off a dry driveway. It does not work on anything wet.
Have the right expectations and this is a good deal for a kit with battery.
Every product from this site automatically goes frontpage. I got a compressor and the ceiling fan when it first got popular a few months back.
Both arrived 6 weeks later.
Fan was all broken up and compressor was rusted out and the release valve constantly leaked. Both were packaged very well, damage was clearly pre-shipping.
I find it hard to believe every single daily deal here goes FP with pages and pages of comments without manipulation.
EDiT: if you really think there isn't manipulation going on...search SD for this Dorect Tools site, then search for Home Depot. Finally search for Lowes and see how many thumbs it takes to get a Lowes deal FP vs the other two.

Both of those say the battery is 2Ah (which should be a P190), but if you look at the manuals section of the Ryobi link it includes manuals for: P102 battery, P118B charger, and P2109 blower.
My experience is that CPO tools from DirectTools typically look a little worn (not bad though) and have RECOND melted into the body. Factory Blemished tools are typically as new.
Thanks OP. I ordered one. Hope the battery is really a P190.
