  • Electric ones can be super loud

      As opposed to what? The petrol ones are just as loud if not louder.

    What about this unit? https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-2400w-3-in-1-electric-blow…

    It's a blower and vac for the same price and has around variable 6 speeds.

    • I have this. It blows.

    • When a blower needs wheels you can be pretty certain it is going to be a major pain to use.

      • The wheel is super useful when in vacuum mode.

      The 3 in 1 looks like a better deal. I have this for about 3 years already. Really like the vacuum and mulch mode. Extremely useful to vacuum the dust and dry leaves between the pebbles.

  • Ozitos are quite powerful and light, I'd recommend them.

    Get a 30 m extension cord from Bunnings with this and you're set.

    I got an electric blower from Masters for $20, it does the job but it's too loud and being wired is not handy. Probably that's why I avoid using it - I'd rather buy a battery operated one but they are in different price bracket.

      I miss the Masters v Bunnings deals that used to pop up every Friday night :(

        Ditto.

    I have an older Ozito electric blower. Been going trouble free for about 4-5 years now.

    No issue with power (I actually think its better than an older petrol one I had), but be aware that the power cord can be cumbersome on bigger backyards (like an electric tool is such an environment).

    For $50 I reckon this deal is a no brainer, especially since you've got a small yard.

    There was a comment earlier on about electric ones being "super loud"… but I think no more than a petrol blower to be honest. They are both really loud :).

  • Please don't buy one of these if you live near me :(

      Just did, 6am OK?

  • I have a corded blower but I hated plugging the extension the cable to the power outlet and dragging the cables around. As such, I didn't really use it as much as I wanted to. I decided to replace it with a Ryobi cordless one the other day. It's $100 more but the convenience is worth it.

    • shelling out a further $100 is 'inconvenient'.

      but yes, all corded 'moving' tools suck. I have generally gone with petrol although battery technology is much better of recent times.

      • Not if you got the $99 Ryobi 5Ah blower deal from a while back :D

  • I have one of these, it is incredibly noisy but also incredibly powerful. A long extension cord is a must as are some earmuffs. Definitely recommend though if you don't mind dragging the extension cord behind you, being electric it just works every time.

  • My cordless Ryobi is very convenient but power isn't comparable. It feels weak compared to the Ozito

    • Do you have this one or this one?

      I have the first one and the power is comparable to a corded one. Funny thing is, I bought it from Bunnings last week but I can't find it on the website.

    I think it's 5 different blowers I own, fuel will just about always be more powerful (and louder) but if you don't always have 2 stroke fuel on hand then for a small backyard electric is probably the better choices for you.
    I would warn against the big electric blower vac's as they are generally so bulky and cumbersome they are more hassle than they are worth.
    If you already had some battery powered power tools and there was one in the range I'd advise getting that, it's just a lot easier not having to worry about cords. I have this one and whilst it will never blow a brick along the ground like my backpack blower will, I find it good for things like blowing out the garage and blowing of the entertaining area, it would be a bit painful for big areas though.

  • perfect for drying your car after a wash if you are pedantic about avoiding swirl marks and water spots

    • Can it replace having to dry using shammy?

      • If you are a true detailing freak the only thing that should touch your car is good quality microfibre towels. Chamois is way too harsh and will rub particles back into the paint causing swirls

        • So is that a yes or no..

        • @iversonjack:
          if you dont care about rubbing microscopic particles back into the paint then go for it!!

    • I gotta try that next time! (granted I'll prob just end up blowing dust on it or something)
      Always have a water spot problem.

  • im keen to know how powerful this is for a 2000W electric blower.
    does it do a good blow job?!
