Black+Decker LB700 Leaf Blower vs Worx WG547 20V Turbine Leaf Blower
The Worx WG547 is the easier blower to live with: cordless, 2.5 lbs, two speeds, and a battery that runs 140+ other PowerShare tools. The Black+Decker LB700 wins on raw air speed at 180 MPH and never needs a charge, but its 180 CFM and single speed limit it to light debris on hard surfaces. Owners rate both well (4.5 vs 4.4), though the Worx has far more ratings. Buy the Worx for general yard cleanup and portability; buy the LB700 for cheap, sustained power near an outlet.
- Choose the Black+Decker LB700 if you have an outlet within cord reach, want maximum air speed for wet leaves and driveway debris, and don't mind dragging a cord.
- Choose the Worx WG547 if you want cordless freedom, light one-handed weight, two speeds, and a battery you can share with other Worx 20V tools.
