A standout for power at a low price, the Sun Joe is great for clearing away grass clippings and light leaf accumulation in garden areas, sidewalks, and garages.
In our test runs, this blower worked very well for dry leaves and grass clippings on hard surfaces or mowed grass but less so with wet leaves and debris among taller grass.
The kit came with a pair of swappable nozzles to narrow the focus of the airflow for heavy leaves, grass, and other garden debris.
