I have the Worx plug-in for the occasional time I need a blower. Sold off my Gas mulcher/blower on Craigslist even though it ran fine - I hated the smell of gas on me after using it - stinks. No need to shower after using an electric one.
Next one I buy I'll get a battery one that has big CFM ...
I have a (at least) 25-year old corded electric, changed the brushes on the motor a couple times over the years. Can't see the need to keep gas/oil around for the purpose of running a loud and smelly gas blower. They are already being banned/phased out some places, due to pollution.
I clean up leaves for 30hours a year or so..
that blow is crazy.. almost overkill.
These cheap crapsman tools are tempting but after my Dad's trials with 2 different string trimmers.. never buying one. I bought him a 5 year old used echo from 2nd hand shop
and its worked longer than both his new craftmans .. about 5x longer and still going.
And he can work on small engines and tractors.. these are just junk.

OP jumped definitely the gun on this, as these will no doubt go lower.
Has craftsman ever actually made anything? Even their oldest hand tools were made by another manufacture and then rebranded with the craftsman name just like now when the newest sears incarcerations are mostly made by apex tools and all the "new craftsman" stuff at lowes & ace hardware etc. Being just rebranded Stanley tools. I really can not recall one single item that craftsman has ever manufactured themselves. They're simply just a name/brand used for marketing
Where do you live? I want to move there. Working from home, my annoyance with the sound of gas blowers has intensified.

25cc 2 stroke gas powered
430cfm at 200mph
Milwaukee M18 Brushless Blower
450cfm at only 120mph
CFM is just how much air it can pump out. The MPH is the speed of that air or the strength of the blowing force. A 5mph breeze from the wind is moving a million CFM and it doesn't do crap. You need strength or MPH to accomplish moving debris. The Cordless blowers are all using Axial fans that suck. Radial fans are far superior but take a lot more energy to run, something a cordless doesn't have. They have to compensate for the poor axial fan performance by keeping the discharge chute short and with a large mouth. Axial fans can't build pressure so they can't blow though a small opening. Radial leaf blowers(virtually all gas) can build pressure and allow for a long tube that generally ends at the ground and can have deflectors/nozzles to help direct the flow.
OTHER HUGE ISSUE WITH BATTERY!
The specs are only for when the battery is fully charged and fresh. The performance is more than halved by the time the battery is dead. So you start out with 430cfm/120mph for the for 60 seconds and it quickly goes down hill. A 5ah will last you around 8-10minutes so by the 6-7 minute mark you're lucky to get 200cfm at 60mph.
Gas powered is full strength 100% of the time.
