Welcome to the Greenworks leaf blowers category, your go-to source for high-performance, cordless tools designed for everyday yard maintenance. Featuring two standout models—the 80V brushless axial blower with 730 CFM and 170 MPH for heavy-duty tasks, and the versatile 40V blower with 150 MPH and 130 CFM compatible with over 75 tools—this collection helps homeowners tackle leaves on driveways, patios, and lawns without the hassle of cords or gas.
Why Greenworks Stands Out in Leaf Blowers
Greenworks has built a reputation for delivering eco-friendly, reliable outdoor power tools that prioritize user comfort and efficiency. Their leaf blowers emphasize brushless motor technology for longer runtime and durability, lightweight construction to reduce fatigue during extended use, and compatibility with shared battery platforms. Whether you're clearing wet leaves or dry debris, these blowers offer powerful airspeeds and volume without emissions, making them ideal for environmentally conscious homeowners. As part of our expansive Patio, Lawn & Garden selection, Greenworks tools integrate seamlessly into any outdoor routine.
Key Features to Consider When Shopping Greenworks Leaf Blowers
When selecting a leaf blower, focus on metrics like CFM (cubic feet per minute) for air volume, MPH (miles per hour) for speed, voltage for power output, and ergonomics for ease of use. Greenworks excels here with variable speed triggers for precision control and cruise control options on select models. Battery life is another highlight—higher voltage models like the 80V provide more power for larger areas, while the 40V offers portability for quick jobs. Look for axial designs, which balance power and weight better than backpack styles for most residential needs.
- Power Source: Cordless lithium-ion batteries (tool-only options allow flexibility with existing Greenworks kits).

Comparing Greenworks 40V vs. 80V Leaf Blowers
Choosing between the two models boils down to your yard size and task intensity. The 40V cordless leaf blower delivers 150 MPH airspeed and 130 CFM, making it perfect for smaller properties, quick touch-ups, and users prioritizing portability. Its compatibility with 75+ Greenworks tools means one battery powers your entire toolkit, ideal for homeowners with mixed equipment needs.
In contrast, the 80V brushless axial blower ramps up to 730 CFM and 170 MPH, excelling at everyday yard cleanup on driveways and patios where heavier leaf piles accumulate. Though lightweight, it packs more punch for medium-sized lawns without sacrificing maneuverability—note that batteries and chargers are sold separately for both, allowing customization.
If power is your priority, the 80V edges out for efficiency on larger areas. For budget-friendly versatility, the 40V shines. Compared to competitors like DEWALT leaf blowers, Greenworks offers superior battery ecosystem integration at a homeowner-focused scale.
Tips for Getting the Most from Your Greenworks Leaf Blower
Pair your blower with the right nozzle attachments for focused or wide blasts. Maintain performance by cleaning air intakes regularly and storing batteries properly. For pros tackling bigger jobs, consider how these fit into outdoor power tools lineups alongside trimmers and mowers.
Greenworks blowers also compare favorably to Milwaukee leaf blowers for residential users seeking cordless freedom without pro-level bulk. Explore alternatives like EGO Power leaf blowers if you need even higher-end features.
