Tons of power, variable speed motor is nice, fairly quiet and no cords or gas is great. Would recommend 5AH batteries I have 3AH and they dont last very long.

I liked it a lot because it has a lot of strength and it doesn’t make much noise I don’t have to be smelling that smell of smoke

So far a great cordless leaf blower, love it.

Excellent trimmer and far better than my ancient B&D electrical cord trimmer. The blades are sharp and the three speeds are useful. Power consumption is low on medium speed which I use most of the time.

This blower is perfect for my 1/2 acre lot. My blower will last about 20 minutes using 2 5.0Ah batteries on setting 3. I have another set of 4.0Ah batteries and between the two sets, I can easily blow my front yard. The blower has a good adjustment dial. It has a high volume output that can really move leaves. It is far better than an older corded one I have that has high velocity but lower volume air movement. I am pleased with this tool. I have several Makita tools on the 18v platform and really find them to be well-built, reliable, lightweight, and powerful.

Wow! I was duly impressed with this blower! It is quieter than gas powered blowers, yet it is efficient and lightweight at just about 10lbs. Moves a good amount of air and is sufficient for small yards. Battery life was adequate. No complaints.

Used this blower to clean leaves off of my late wife’s gravesite. Worked perfectly; could not ask for better. Highly recommend this tool.

So far I’ve been very happy with the purchase.
Hailey Bergnaum (verified owner) –
Would give it 5 stars but when it is on full power, it drains the battery really quickly. This is to be expected, I guess but we will see how it handles the leaves this fall and even light snow come this winter.

Just started to use it cuts good so far

Very fast hedge trimmer I love it.

This moves a lot of air, a lot more then my Makita gas blower. I like my gas blower but its getting old. I bought the cordless blower to do some of the work my gas blower was doing, I use the gas blower year around. I’ve had the cordless blower a couple of months. I have two sets of batteries, if you use this a lot you need extra batteries.

This blower is great! It work way better than I thought it would.

Works great like all Makita tools. Lasts about 35 minutes on high and much longer at lower speeds. I have oak trees and a pool and threw my rake away. Makita rocks!!

Was able to pick up the kit with 4 batteries and I’ve got to say, this thing is great!Ive got an old Craftman corded, and Echo gas powered. The Echo is great, but fuel, storage, maintenance, and weight make it a little bit of a hassle. The Craftsmen, I use for vacum, and the cord is a PITA and it doesnt have a lot of power. The Makita X2 is fantastic. Just drop in batteries and you’re set. Its light, and has plenty of power. I use on average for 15 minutes straight when doing yard work, and batteries are over 1/2 charged in the end.I can see how professional landscapers may not care for the battery life, but for home owners, this thing is amazing!
