(checked 2026-10-10)Small sample (1,142 ratings). The listing is the bare tool (LB7650), not the LB7654 kit with battery.
Reviewed's best cordless blower, with a strong Thrust (turbo) button and the longest runtime it measured. Wirecutter says it is basically the LB6504 except in turbo mode. It's heavy and loud, and some owners report short battery life or early failures.
In the box: 1 x EGO 56V 5.0Ah battery and charger (Reviewed, per retailer listing; Amazon kit listing B0CTKZXNFL also lists the 5.0Ah battery and 320W charger)
Top complaints
- Mixed battery life and durability
Battery life, durability and value are mixed aspects in Amazon's summary. Some owners get about 40 minutes per charge, others about 15, and some report units failing within 10 days.
- Heavy and loud
Reviewed lists 'heavy' and 'loud' as its cons: 9.6 lb with battery and 86 dB even on the lowest setting.
Source: Reviewed - Extra power only on turbo
Wirecutter says its regular dial tops out at the same 500 CFM as the LB6504, so the higher rating only shows in turbo. Reviewed found the Thrust button can blow mulch away.

What experts say
- Reviewed: Best cordless: powerful with a long runtime, best for larger yards. Cons are weight, noise and no shoulder strap in the box.
- Wirecutter (NYT): Not a pick: in regular use it's the same as the LB6504 and only stronger in turbo, so it's not worth paying extra unless it's cheaper.
