M18 FUEL 120 MPH 450 CFM 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Handheld Blower with M18 FUEL Hedge Trimmer

BEWARE - Both Home Depot and Milwaukee sites list this as coming with High Output XC 8.0 Ah battery, but they are currently ( Aug 2020 ) shipping with HD 9.0 Ah battery. If your goal was to get another High Output battery to use with your other large Milwaukee tools ( Table / Miter Saws ), you will not get one. Also, the HD 9.0 battery gains no reduction in charging time from a Super Charger like the High Output 8.0 does. However, the blower is awesome. Low and High speed settings. Variable speed trigger for blowing out garden beds between plantings. Light weight and easy to use. I fully endorse the tool. Buy in person. Check box descriptions. Get the right combination of tool and battery for your needs.

works awesome, great battery life

I've been wanting to get rid of my old gas-powered trimmer because it was a hassle to use, you know, mixing oil and gas, fuel stabilizer, carb adjustments, the noise, the fumes, etc... I went on the cheap and bought one from the orange brand (no, not Ridgid, the other one), and came to regret it quickly. So here I am with this Milwaukee trimmer now and I will say it is not a cheaply made tool. In fact, it looks and feels like it will last a lifetime, albeit with a few drawbacks, chiefly that it is a very HEAVY tool, and expensive. Even my old gas-powered one was not this heavy, which makes it hard to recommend to anyone other than those who are into Milwaukee tools or have already invested in the M18 ecosystem and want to keep battery chargers to a minimum while moving away from gas and into battery tools. To use this tool you really need to be strong because even after only 20 minutes of use you start to feel its weight. Luckily, 20 minutes is about all I need to get the entire yard trimmed with this beast. It powers through hedges and bushes effortlessly and it has a great ergonomic design that allows you to quickly change angles or direction. If it was lighter it would be delightful to use. Battery life from the included 9.0 AH High Demand battery is stellar. 20 minutes of nonstop use and not even a single bar went down on the Fuel indicator. I might even try it with one of my smaller M18 batteries and see how it does. If nothing else, I figure it will at least make it a bit lighter. All in all, I recommend it but only if you think you'll be able to handle the weight for extended periods of time. I believe it comes in at 12 lbs with the battery, so keep that in mind before you spend almost two hundos on it. And if you don't already own a few other Milwaukee M18 tools, I'd seriously consider other options first that may be lighter or less expensive than this one.

Got the weed eater blower combo tools only for fathers day. Bought an 8ah battery with fast charger for them. My yard is approx 1/3 acre. Weed ate and blew off whole yard on one charge. No over heats that others have reviewed. Power to spare on both tools. Only complaint is I have to get used to weed eater, edging with it is difficult and winding the string is a pain bc there is no "keeper" to hold lines while you push it into the tool. Bump feed works great.

One more Great tool from Milwaukee thanks

No assembly required. Instant power works great

So far, its been a great blower. Leftover dead wet grass, small tree limbs, leaves and just about anything in my yard space. I use a XC8.0 battery, which is paired nicely. PROS: IT BLOWS, In a positive way. CONS: As you would think, it drinks batteries for breakfast. I need Milwaukee to sponsor me with a 12.0 to see what kind of run time I can get out of this momster!

Excellent tool works great

This thing is awesome, have used similar products in the past, both corded and cordless and this has both reach and cutting power far above the rest, the only thing close to comparison is a gas Stihl hedge trimmer, but at half the cost.

Should of bought one years ago. Milwaukee is a brand you can trust. Picked it up in store on sale. Fires right up no more fighting cords. Have used it for a couple of months now. I like the two settings hi and lo. My daughter uses it to blow grass off the sidewalk and while a little heavy for her, is no problem for me or my wife.
