Features
Blower/sweeper easily clears leaves, grass clippings, and debris from hard surfaces

Cord retention system prevents accidental unplugging
Blower speed: 140 mph; 2-year warranty
Product Description
We popped this out of the box, snapped it together, strapped it on, and were ready to move some leaves. What a delight this little machine is for cleaning up debris in the yard. It's lighter than the backpacks kids are hauling to school these days, the shoulder strap is comfortable, adjustable, and distributes the weight evenly, and the FlexTube is a great innovation that takes the strain off your arm and shoulder. Black & Decker crafted a joystick handle onto the FlexTube, letting you direct the 140 mph airflow with absolute ease. You can also take off the FlexTube and carry the tool by the handle to use it as a traditional blower--but the strap and FlexTube are so cool that we can't imagine using it any other way. Another nice plus--it's quieter than you'd expect for this much power.
The Black and Decker blower/sweeper easily clears leaves, grass clippings, and debris from hard surfaces and uses an innovative FlexTube design with a joystick handle for improved control and ease of use. Providing up to 140 MPH air speed for powerful performance, this blower has a low-noise construction and is built with a comfortable shoulder strap to take the weight off your arms; a special cord retention system prevents the blower from accidentally coming unplugged. This product is backed by a 2-year warranty. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Wow! What a difference the adjustable shoulder strap makes. With our old blower I felt as if I were engaged in a wrestling match just trying to clean off our driveway. Now, with the shoulder strap the weight of the blower is evenly distributed so that I can work with ease. Why didn't someone think of this before? Another feature I like is the sound quality - this blower doesn't wake the neighbors! It can be used either with the flex tube or straight tube. Thank you, Black & Decker!
