Greenworks 60V 750 CFM Leaf Blower Dials Up The Power Just In Time For Mowing Season
There’s no denying that the battery-powered leaf blower wars are going strong, and Greenworks is once again pushing the performance envelope. With their recent expansion into Walmart, I jumped at the chance to get my hands on the Greenworks 60V 750 CFM leaf blower to help you decide if it’s a good fit for your tool arsenal!
Pros

- Low noise level
- Comfortable grip
Cons

Greenworks 60V 750 CFM Leaf Blower Performance
- Max Airspeed: 170 MPH
- Max Air Volume: 750 CFM
- Power Equivalent: 28cc
- Runtime: 80 min.
Blowing Force
According to Greenworks’ specs, this blower produces a peak airspeed of 170 MPH and 750 CFM of blowing force. Those numbers make this one of Greenworks most powerful blowers across all of their battery platforms.
Greenworks tells us that this blower’s brushless motor has a power equivalent to a 28cc gas engine, putting it in the company of the Stihl BG50 leaf blower. What’s interesting though, Greenworks is able to generate significantly more airspeed and CFM all while being quieter, and requiring far less maintenance.
Runtime
This blower features a variable speed trigger, cruise control thumb lever, and a turbo button for when you need a little power boost. The kitted 4.0Ah battery provides up to 30 minutes of runtime on high and around 80 minutes on low. That gives you plenty of time to clear off the driveway after your weekend mow, or even tackling seasonal leaves and debris.

This blower has a great balance and naturally points down at a 45-degree angle with the battery in place.

The Bottom Line
Overall, Greenworks did a great job targeting higher performance with their 60V 750 CFM leaf blower. It’s a bit heavier than less powerful models, but that’s a trade-off I’m willing to make. You will need to drop a few extra bucks to get your hands on it, but that’s not really a surprise when you’re pushing the upper limits of performance. If you’re looking to kick your gas-habit this season, head on down to your local Walmart and experience the difference for yourself!
