Leaf Blowers

Choose a SENIX leaf blower for fall cleanup, grass clippings, driveways, patios, and seasonal debris. Compare cordless and gas power, handheld and backpack designs, and the balance of CFM, MPH, runtime, and tool weight that fits your property.

How to Choose a Leaf Blower

CFM measures air volume and helps move broad piles; MPH measures air speed and helps loosen stuck debris. Wet leaves and large areas usually need a strong balance of both. For more detail, read our wet-leaf blower guide.

• Small yards and hard surfaces: prioritize low weight, variable speed, and easy storage.
• Medium-to-large yards: compare higher airflow, battery capacity, and comfortable controls.
• Long cleanup sessions: consider a backpack design or a power system that supports the required runtime.
• Mulch beds and gravel: use lower speed first so lightweight material stays in place.

Cordless vs. Gas

Cordless blowers offer push-button starting and lower routine maintenance. Gas blowers support refueling for extended work but add fuel handling, engine maintenance, noise, and weight. Compare the complete tool, not a single specification.

Fall Cleanup Planning

Work in sections and move leaves toward a collection point. For branches, hedges, lawn care, and winter storage, follow the fall yard cleanup checklist.

Leaf Blower FAQ

What matters more, CFM or MPH?

CFM moves volume; MPH loosens debris. Wet, matted leaves generally require both.

Is cordless enough for a large yard?

It can be when output, battery capacity, and compatible spare batteries match the work session.

Handheld or backpack?

Handheld models favor quick tasks and storage; backpack models distribute weight for longer sessions.
