![]() Also, I’m not a fan of leaf vacs that come with wheels since the suction tubes are never quite long enough to hold them in a comfortable position. ![]() Switchover from blower to vacuum is thankfully a painless tool-free process and, while there’s no turbo suction available, it generally performs really well at sucking though not quite as well as the corded Black & Decker we review below. Einhell says its air speed is 130mph but it feels more like 250mph. I’ve tested many leaf blowers but this is one is far and away the most powerful. ![]() But turn the wheel to full speed and hit the Turbo switch and the force quite literally blows your arm back. In normal mode it blows a decent gale like many leaf blowers on the market and there’s a speed control wheel, too, which makes it really easy to adjust the output for various scenarios. At 4.7kgs, the Einhell is a weighty beast, but wait till you feel the power of its blowing function. This model runs on two 3.0Ah 18-volt batteries which need to be bought separately. Instead of breaking your back using an inadequate broom, rake, dustpan and brush, strap this baby on and blast everything into a pile, then remove the narrow blow tube, add the wide suction fitting which comes with wheels, pop the suction tube on, attach the admittedly small-ish 45-litre collection bag and watch the leaves disappear up the tube where they’re mulched into little bits and deposited into the bag for easy disposal. The Worx LEAFJET runs on a 4.0Ah PowerShare battery which should provide up to 15 minutes of leaf-dispersal time. For something so small and light, this is an extremely powerful blower that is perfect for day-to-day use. What’s more, you can adjust the airflow for more volume (width) or more speed by sliding the directional thingamajig on the end to one of two positions. In high mode it has a top airspeed of 130mph but in most cases you’ll use the standard mode which is plenty powerful enough for most leaf clearance duties. The LEAFJET uses a brushless motor and air amplifier technology for maximum thrust. Aside from the fact it looks like a battle prop from Star Wars or even a rocket launcher, the LEAFJET is one of the lightest blowers around (just 1.7kgs) and it’s perfectly balanced, too, which makes it super easy to use without your arm falling off. If you find that most leaf blowers are too heavy and ungainly to wield for long periods of time, give this Worx a whirl.
