Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've had this for about 6 months now and use it most days to blow off about 1500 ft sq of stamped concrete. I use it for about 10 minutes each cleaning cycle. It's great for that, the fact that it has less force that our corded leaf blower so it's fabulous for blowing off the concrete next to the mulch, without disrupting the mulch and making an even bigger mess. I have only one time used it to the point of the motor slowing and needing a charge. I used it about 20 minutes that day. It does take several hours to recharge after a 10 minute use, probably 4 to 6. The only real negative is that spare B&D batteries are so expensive. But there are knock-off replacements for the LBXR20 battery that are about 1/2 the B&D battery price. Edit 7/20/19: Blower died today and took out 2 of my batteries, as they won't charge now and the blower is dead. Very unhappy with the life and that it killed the batteries. Will buy something else as a replacement.
