great product September 5, 2008 this blower is light weight and powerful. i like that it has the same batteries as my other b&d products. anything from b&d seeems to be great. it is much better than a gas or corded blower.
Sweeper August 27, 2008 Nice and easy to use. Great for little jobs like blowing grass off the walks.
Great product!! August 26, 2008 Love this lightweight blower! It is so lightweight that even my 4 year old can use it. In fact, my kids all fight over who gets to blow off the back patio, or the sidewalks after I mow. I had purchased the Black & Decker Grasshog back in the Spring and have been very satisfied with it. If you have a small yard, are a woman who has to do your own yard work, or have kids who like to help in the yard these items are perfect! They are lightweight, easy to use, and get the job done! Thanks Black & Decker!!!
Best of the Available Options August 26, 2008 Well, I bought this for my wife (I have a 2stroke gasoline blower, but she wanted something she could use). She is very pleased -> Hence, I am very pleased (when Mamma's not happy, nobody is happy). I was disappointed that they no longer are pkged with 2 batteries, but spousal unit reports that the charge of one battery is just about right for her. With only a couple of months use, it's too early to report on durability. However, the alternative was the Ryobi (at HomeDepot) -a good looking unit, priced less than this, but with NO batteries. AH, that's the rub, the battery and charger are more than the cost of the B&D broom, charger, and battery.
So, if you're looking for a lightweight broom (not the power of a corded or gasoline blower, but my wife is happy), this is probably the best way to go.
Now comes with ONLY ONE BATTERY! August 18, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Buyers beware! I have purchased two of these units previously and they came with two batteries. Black & Decker recently decided to delete one of the batteries from the unit and raise the price by about 5 bucks. It now comes with ONLY ONE BATTERY and it really needs two. Quite sneaky if you ask me. Some of the reviews here indicate the unit comes with two batteries. They are old reviews so buyers beware. The replacement batteries are quite expensive, do not last very long, and cost more than half the price of the unit. That's just silly. I would not buy this unit again.
