Good but fairly weak

It works fairly well, and having the battery fit in with B&D's family of chargeable cordless devices is convenient, but the output is a little weak. So if you need a heavy duty blower, you might want to get a corded model, but for light sweeping this one works fine.

DOES THE JOB - EASY HANDLING

this is exactly what i was looking for. does the job well. not very loud like some leaf blowers can be.

one personal con but by no means a discouragement for purchasing: may have been my not reading all the product details beforehand but was a little bummed that charging the unit requires the battery to be removed and placed in a separate charging dock (included). i guess i was expecting a cord to plug right in to the blower itself and charge as i used to have one that did this and it seemed easier than having to remove the battery. i guess they do this now since the battery can fit into other Black & Decker products so it's a nice feature in that regard.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE EXTRA BATTERY?

Unfortunately it doesn't come with an extra battery anymore...whats with that?! I've owned this now for two years and its never let me down. (It was a great deal back then for sixty bucks on sale at walmart) I've been very happy with this blower and getting the extra battery was definitely the deal clincher. I would have to reconsider now that it only comes with one.
I've read where some people had problems with their batteries but I haven't. The blower, batteries and charger have always been stored indoors in our laundry room. Never outside and not in the garage where the temps fluctuate so maybe that's made a difference. After 2yrs I haven't noticed any real change in the battery life and it still works like new.
I use both batteries fully charged in the fall for leaves and are easily able to do the 12x16 back deck, the 5x20 front porch, the 6' concrete decking around 20x40 IG pool and 20x16 outdoor cabana. I use one fully charged battery every day in the summer to clean the pool and cabana area. It's very light weight and easy to swing back and forth. It's so quiet my wife said it sounds like her hair dryer. The second battery is easy enough to just carry in my hand or coat pocket. I've always kept one battery in the charger and the other in the blower. When I'm ready to use it I swap out the batteries. If I'm going to need both batteries I just swap them and wait 30-45min then get started and carry the extra one with me. Like any thing else you buy, if you take care not to abuse it you'll get years of trouble free use.

Great Product When Used as Intended

This sweeper is well made for its price point, and does a great job. It is NOT a LEAF BLOWER, and is not marketed as suitable for that purpose.

It does a great job sweeping out the garage and grass clipping off the driveway, cleaning the gutters, and and blowing the water out of the door jambs and grill after washing the car.

I actually purchased this mostly for the battery. A new battery for my B&D cordless 6" chainsaw is $40, and the Sweeper was only $50 as a refurb from CPO Black & Decker. Figured for $10, might as well get the sweeper with its battery & charger.

To my great surprise, the Sweeper came with 2 batteries, so I now have a total of 3 (the chainsaw only came with one battery, and the saw depletes it quickly). All three batteries are inter-changable.

Overall, I am very happy with the quality and usefulness of the Sweeper, and with its purchase from CPO B&D.
