Despite the noise, leaf blowers and blower vacs make tidying up your garden and collecting debris easier – and some can even mulch it into something useful.

Our expert testers give petrol, cordless and electric blowers a thorough workout to help find the models that are:

  • best at blowing and vacuuming
  • easiest to use and convert to vacuum
  • quiet to run.

This review includes blower vacs and blower-only models. You can use the vacuum function filter on the left to view just the blower vac models.
