Is the LSWV36 worth it?

For light cleanup on driveways, decks and patios it is a convenient two-in-one tool at $179.99 at Verdi.com as of November 4, 2026. If you face heavy, wet leaves or a large lawn, a higher-CFM blower will do the job faster.

How does it compare with a gas leaf blower?

It is much quieter at 65 dB and needs no fuel or cord, but 90 CFM and 120 MPH are far below typical gas blowers. Expect it to move dry leaves and clippings, not deep wet piles.

How long does the battery last and how fast does it charge?

The included 40V 1.5Ah battery gives about 18 minutes of runtime. The included fast charger refills it in roughly 30 minutes.

What comes in the box?

You get the LSWV36 unit, one LBX36 40V lithium-ion battery, an LCS36 fast charger, a blow tube, a vacuum tube and a collection bag.

Can it vacuum wet leaves?

No. The vacuum mode is meant for dry debris on hard surfaces. Wet leaves clog the tube and bag and are better handled with a rake or a blower.
