The 12-amp Worx WG500 is convenient to use, according to reviewers, because you don't have to change attachments to vacuum instead of blow leaves; you just flip a switch. The air flow regulator is built into the blowing tube, so it's easy to control the air speed, and the angled tube makes it simple to reach under things. The WG500 has a maximum air speed of 210 mph and an air flow of 150 cubic feet per minute (CFM). It is noisier and a little heavier than the top-rated Toro Ultra Blower Vac electric blower (*Est. $70) , so if you're concerned about either of these factors, the Toro may be a better choice.
A product expert at MowersDirect.com recommends it as one of the two best electric blowers, and owners give feedback at Amazon.com and HomeDepot.com, based on their use of this leaf blower over time.
