When it comes to value, the Black and Decker LB700 is tough to match. It's a corded electric leaf blower with a seven amp motor and a robust 180 mph air speed, making it great for garden walks, back yards, and lawns.

At 4.4 pounds, it's a compact, lightweight blower that fits in the palm of your hand. A chord retention system eliminates the annoyance of cord snags as you stroll about your property.
