  • PositiveHigh blowing power (= 16.2 m/s)
  • PositiveGreat handling, also thanks to the low weight (~ 3.7 kg)
  • NegativeBattery lacks endurance (= 10:25 min)
  • NegativeSmall volume of the leaf bag (~ 25 litres)
  • NegativeRelatively high sound pressure level (~ 92.5 dB)

This Makita model is solid all round: while the battery life (= 10:25 min at maximum blowing power) and the charging speed (= 114 min) could certainly be improved, the blowing & suction performance of = 58.3 km/h from = 1 m before the end of the blowing tube made quite an impression. Due to the size of the tube, leaves can also be pulled in very quickly...

Makita surprises with a decent runtime despite the 18-volt battery. The suction and blowing functions are fine. The speed can be infinitely adjusted and, if necessary, fixed so that the hand switch does not have to be constantly pressed. The high-quality charger is also impressive.
