CHOICE Expert Rating View more details.

This overall score is made up of the performance score (65%) and ease of use score (35%). We recommend blower vacs with a CHOICE Expert Rating over 80%.

Performance score View more details.

We test with dry leaves and small twigs in a 20 square metre area. We time how long it takes to blow all the leaves into a pile, and for models with a vacuum function, how long it then takes to convert from blower to vacuum mode and vacuum up the pile of leaves. The fastest blowers clear the area of leaves in under 4 minutes. If a model runs out of power before cleaning the whole area its score is penalised accordingly.

Ease of use score View more details.

We check how easy each model is to use. This includes using its controls, and how comfortable it is to hold and operate.

Vacuum performance score View more details.

Only applicable to blower vacs. This test involves vacuuming 1kg of mixed leaf and twig material as well as 2kg of leaf material. As not all models have a vacuum, vacuum scores are not included in the CHOICE Expert Rating.

Vacuum ease of use score View more details.

Only applicable to blower vacs. This test assesses general ease of use, including how easy it is to clear any blockages. As not all models have a vacuum, vacuum scores are not included in the CHOICE Expert Rating.

This helps when vacuuming, as it's easier to trundle the inlet around on the ground if it has a nose wheel.
