Please note that cordless products will normally have a shorter warranty of just 1 Year for the battery and or charger supplied. The Makita DUB186Z is ideal if mobility is an issue, because it’s one of the lighter models we tested and has a compact body and thin nozzle. Equipped with Battery protection circuit: designed to protect the battery from damages due to overdischarge, high temperature or overload current. The Makita DUB186 18v LXT cordless leaf blower follows on from the popular DUB183 model, but provides approximately 20% more power in the same form.

Corded variants are cheaper to manufacture as they don’t require batteries or chargers, though their obvious limitation is the length of cord they are attached to. It’s light to use and the three settings for air speed are great when blowing leaves on gravel path. Leaf blowers can also be effective at clearing snow, dust and dirt; however please bear in mind they are not designed to shift piles of wet leaves and much better results can be obtained by waiting for these to dry out first.

The soft-grip handle, together with the position of the battery, which slots in underneath it, helps balance the leaf blower, making it comfortable to use for longer periods of time.
