Best cordless leaf vacuums and mulchers
Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 6, 2026. Prices below are today's.
Top pick: EGO LV5005 Leaf Vacuum and Mulcher. It's the one built as a vacuum first — a dedicated vac/mulcher with a 6.0Ah battery and charger in the kit, 500 CFM of airflow and a long low-speed runtime, so you can clear a whole yard without swapping packs. Best for anyone with a real leaf problem who wants one tool that does the job properly.
Who the others suit:
- Worx WG583 Nitro — the best all-rounder if you mostly blow and only occasionally vacuum; it switches between blower, vac and mulcher and costs far less than the EGO.
- Greenworks 40V brushless — the value choice for light fall cleanup on a small lot; strong air speed, but it's a blower that can vacuum rather than a true mulcher.
- Ryobi 40V Vac Attack — for people already on Ryobi's 40V platform; a metal impeller and a high mulch ratio, though it's a single-store listing with steep shipping.
- AIVOLT / Maxlander 3-in-1 kits — budget kits that include batteries, charger and bag; fine for occasional use, but thinner ratings and less suction than the names above.
- Makita XBU07Z — only if you already own Makita 18V batteries; it's tool-only and the weakest sucker here.
Skip the tiny USB-charged and no-name units — they clog on wet leaves.
