Black & Decker LB700

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. Aside from the electric wire, the primary downside is that there is no vacuum option, so consider the Black and Decker LB700 just if you need a blower to move leaves around your house.

To be fair, this is a no-frills device, but what it lacks in functionality it more than makes up for in value. The Black and Decker LB700 performs a good job, and the air speed is high enough that you won't encounter any debris.

Pros
+ Great budget price
+ A healthy 180 mph air speed

Cons

- No vacuum function
- Corded, so limited range
