KIMO 20V Cordless Leaf Blower with 4.0Ah Lithium Battery - Lightweight 2-in-1 Leaf Vacuum & Sweeper for Yard, Garden, Patio, Deck, Garage - Perfect for Clearing Leaves, Dust, Snow & Car Cleaning

It’s not a 20HP 300MPH unit but for blowing off light stuff on ground and work benches it’s perfect, it’s light, small and has what you’d expect for its size plus the battery lasts reasonable time which I charge back up as soon as I’m done.I’d never use the vacuum part of it because sucking up that dust and dirt and grit and passing it through the motor area is guaranteed to ruin the motor brushes and lube points on the motor ends, plus I may use a filter off my old dust buster to filter the air going into the intake side of this thing so it’s not sucking in the dust stirred up by using this little blower.I’ve seen negative reviews on people expecting performance of a 600 dollar gas or cord style blower and this thing was never intended to be a match for those but it does fine on light loose wind blown debris for us plus the super light weight and small size makes it super handy.I bought a extra battery so I could use each battery to about 1/2 charge then recharge them ASAP, never use them till completely dead or you’ll accelerate the battery useful life span to not usable any longer.I’d love one more section of blower snout to extend the blower as I’m 6’3” and the normal one is a tad short for my taste but love it just the same.Think of it as a dust buster with much more power and use accordingly since you don’t vacuum your whole house with a dust buster you grab the 12 amp plug is vacuum and the same applies to this, if you need to move a 5ft deep 20 ft wide pile of wet leaves, this tool isn’t for that, but you get the point.Was surprise at how small and lightweight this unit is. It is powerful enough for my small patio jobs etc. tried the vacuum, the bag attaches to the side which is awkward, works, but not great…. Charged first time and got an hour’s worth. Good product for the money.It is not a heavy duty plastic, so I will be careful setting it down and when attaching the tubes….I like it. Blows dirt, debris and sand out of my garage , pool area and front porch. Very lightweight and easy to assemble. I just got it a few days ago so no glitches so far. Has decent power and pretty quiet as far as blowers go.. Have not tried the vacuuming feature. When it came I thought wow so small but it works. Great for older folks as it is lightweight and has no kick back. Plus it is pretty quiet so won’t disturb neighbors very much.If you have light duty yard work I would recommend this product.I primarily use this blower, after mowing, to quickly blow the grass on the street and sidewalk into piles I can just pick up with dustpan. Previously, I was sweeping all the grass and it took a long time. This blower is fun to use because it is so powerful, it just takes me a few minutes to have everything cleaned up. For less power, I just do not depress the button as much. I also used it to blow light snowfall off of my sidewalk and to vacuum my car. I do plug it in to the charger after each use. Great for cleaning garages too! The blower is light weight to hold. I am a senior citizen and have no trouble holding it at all.2nd EDIT UPDATE: AUG 14, 2020I finally heard from KIMO Customer Service and they apologized profusely for not getting back to me in a timely manner. Apparently, it had something to do with the upgrading of the email system? Anyway, they very kindly and promptly sent me an upgraded battery at no cost. The first thing I noticed was the new battery was fully charged and all charge lights were solid. The battery that came with the blower never showed the last light (blue) as solid, which meant it was never fully charged no matter how long I left it on the charger. So it appears the first battery was indeed defective. The new replacement works GREAT! I have restored my original 5-star rating for this product! Works great for its intended purpose, which is small area cleaning! Thank you KIMO for standing behind the product!EDIT UPDATE: JULY 26, 2020I am updating to express my displeasure with customer service from Kimo. I emailed them after my review to let them know I loved the product but was not satisfied with the running time (battery.) When I wrote the initial review I had only run the blower to see how it functioned. I did not do a thorough patio cleaning so did not notice the poor battery performance initially. The next day I used it again and discovered that problem. I emailed the address they gave for contacting in the customer questions and answers section. ( [email protected] ) They state they reply "within 12 hours." I wrote on July 13, and again on July 15. NO RESPONSE from them. It is now July 26 and they never replied to my emails. My complaint was that the running time was only 8 to 10 minutes before the battery died. In the details for the blower, they state about "30 minutes running time." If it had been 20 minutes or more, I would have accepted that. But LESS THAN 10 MIN. is NOT acceptable for a product advertising 30 minutes runtime. Initially, I gave a 5-star rating because I felt the product did a great job for my needs. I am reducing that to a 3-star because getting only 1/3 of the advertised runtime is NOT acceptable. I emailed privately twice, now I publicly call on Kimo to make this right and replace this defective battery. When I get a runtime of 20-25 min minimum, I will restore the 5-star rating. (END EDIT)=============I live in an apartment and was so tired of the lawncare company blowing grass clippings and other debris up onto my patio instead of away from the patio. Grass clippings were always getting tracked inside. The windows collected grass clippings and debris as well - very unsightly. I saw an influencer talking about this product on Instagram and I clicked over and read the reviews. Folks seemed to give this little gadget great reviews so I ordered one! I received it this morning, charged the battery (1 hour) and gave it a little workout! It comes in a small box, literally 10 inches long! I was tickled at how well it performed. This is a little bitty blower. It's not for blowing entire yards or large areas. It is perfectly suited to use on a patio, porch, maybe around a pool deck or driveway. It would be good for blowing off lawn chairs and other outdoor items. I doubt if it's going to handle fall leaves a foot deep, but that's not the intended purpose. If you need a good little blower for small jobs, for small spaces - this is the bomb! It's great!!! Lightweight, small, easy to work! And it's fun! Thanks to all the good reviewers who helped me make up my mind!Battery will not charge……..Update I contacted KIMO and they are sending replacement charger. Good customer service. Will purchase more of their products if they preform as well as this sneaky power cordless blower.The battery dies very quick.Was surprised at first when I received the box thinking it would arrive in a much larger package. However upon opening and assembling the blower I was pleasantly surprised at it performance in such a small package. It is lighter than my cordless drill yet does a very good job of clearing my driveway, garage floor and sidewalks of all loose debris. To be honest- I only run it about 10 minutes total time. Thats all it takes to do the job at least on my property. You really can't beat it.
