EGO 180 MPH Power+ 56-Volt Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) 650 CFM Brushless Cordless Electric Leaf Blower (Battery Included) LB6504 $249

I've been waiting for Home Depot to clearance these out (no luck yet) they have a yellow clearance sticker but still $299. I went ahead and put an order in, I can always cancel before it ships if HD winds up lowering their prices on remaining stock.

The latest EGO blower with a 5 out of 5 stars rating from Lowes and $50 off the regular Amazon/Lowes price.

The item is currently backordered so it's not a bad deal if you're willing to wait.

Looks like this model has been hit and miss... Can anyone vouch for it?

You can get a competitor item for half right now with clearance/sales going on. 250 is way too high.

3 year review

The newer ones are a lot more powerful and even more efficient, one reason why this brand is growing so quickly.

When I got mine, I watched a lot of youtube videos about various brands.. this one guy went to the extreme by buying every brand on the market and the EGO won out in almost every category from overall blow power to battery life aka efficiency. I think it lives up to all of that hype. One of the biggest challenges is to blow soaking wet oak leaves and pine needles which it does both very well (just blew both the other day at the same time! yes, multi-talented indeed!). The only thing you have to keep in mind with all blowers from all brands is no matter what they sell you on, they do have a limited battery life before you need a recharge. Blowers is actually one of the hardest common tools to conquer when it comes to batteries, they need a lot of energy.

What I did is I got their chainsaw too that year so I could have two batteries. As a result, due to extremely excellent charge times, I'm able to go endlessly with my EGO tools just on two batteries alone, including the blower!

I've changed so many minds including guys in their 70's not keen on change that absolutely are wanting battery operated tools now.. EGO's chainsaw has impressed the neighbors the most by far I think.. I've cut down 10+ trees with their smallest chainsaw and have cut into some pretty thick wet oak logs too. When they've come up to talk about it, I always say "here, feel how light it is" and they are always like WOW! because they see from a distance I just cut up a bunch of trees yet its so light and no gas, no gas lines, etc to deal with.



If I were to be a fanboy of any powertool brand, its hands down EGO. I'm so glad that they are hellbent on perfecting their existing tools instead of trying to have 50 new products in their battery eco system every year like so many of these other brands. They are American too.. I know many hail the Chinese these days as our lords and saviors but for the few that dont.. it might help that our own peeps are designing this stuff and hiring American engineers to do so that directly support our local communities and not the CCP.
