20V MAX XR Handheld Axial Blower

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I made sure to charge the battery completely before I used it. I have a Black and Decker corded blower that I also use and tried a side by side comparison. This thing outperformed by a mile and when I was done the battery still showed 3/3 bars. I won’t be using any other blower for quite a while I am sold on this one.

I received my new blower as a Birthday gift this last summer. I have used it a handful of times. It works good but I have found that I need to have several fully charged batteries ready to go if I want to use it for any length of time. I have found that each fully charged 6amp hour battery will last 15 - 20minutes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this Blower for a week or so and it is amazing. The weight is evenly distributed and the motor is super quiet. It does really well with pushing wet leaves that have clumped up. The variable speed trigger is probably my favorite feature since it allows me to adjust how much force I can unleash.

Very bad product which I didn't expect from Dewalt. Not enough airflow even to move small heap of leaves. The battery life is horrendous. 15mins with 6Ah battery and only 10mins with 5Ah battery. I have other Dewalt products and I love them. Don't know how Dewalt markets such a bad product.

I love this blower. It is lightweight! It is powerful and it can also run on my 20 volt batteries as a backup. I have a large turnaround in my drive as well as a driveway that is a little over 3/8ths of a mile long. This blower clears the leaves and debris off of my driveway.

I got this as a Christmas gift and I couldn’t be happier! I am retired, living in a larger condo with a remote shop & storage on the same grounds, so to be able to grab and go is perfect. Being cordless, it encourages me to clean more often so everything is cleaner, more often.

Very, very poor batter life. Called DeWalt and they claim 10-15 minutes is all you will get. That is not nearly good enough. My neighbor's wives are blowing with other companies battery operated blowers for 30 plus minutes. I like DeWalt drills. I hate this handheld blower.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The blower works well and it isn't too loud, but it only lasts for about 10 minutes. I have a big yard to clear, so I have to recharge the battery about 5 times to get the job done. I bought this because it claimed a long runtime, but that hasn't been my experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had previously used a DeWalt DCBL720 and I feel like this blower is a welcome improvement. This blower seems to move more air at a faster speed while maintaining a tolerable operating noise level. The blower really shines while performing duties indoors where exhaust fumes would not be acceptable (cleaning up worksite, cleaning saws, blowing out sawdust/dirt in the shop, etc.). I've also been happy with battery life when using the included 5.0 AH battery - no issues to report there. I would say it is okay at blowing leaves/debris off of the porch/driveway. I would say it's important to have realistic expectations - this isn't a gas-powered blower and doesn't quite have the "oomph" of one, but it does get the job done. Just understand that if you're doing outdoor/yard/landscaping work, it will probably take a little longer than a gas-powered blower. In summary, I'm very happy with the blower and it works great for what I need it for (cleaning dust, debris, sawdust) from tools, wood projects, workspace, etc.).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hesitant about moving form a gas powered blower to a battery operated blower but, the transition has been seamless. It cannot run as long as long as a gas blower but I have never had it run out on me before a job is done. I would recommend this to anyone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wanted a cordless blower for awhile but wanted one with enough CFM/power and this is the one. Love the speed control lock location and the battery on the handle makes it feel balanced. Was surprised at the amount of power for still being the 20v platform.

It was great while it lasted, did a good job. The motor in the cold would suddenly grind to a halt occasionally and today it did for the last time - can't get it going again. A bit of a waste to get one summer out of it and maybe 20 uses total.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this around June to dry my car after washing it and now I use it whenever I can. Blowing leaves, drying the car, kicking up the fire. Literally whatever. Nice, light and it works for more than you would expect with a 5ah battery

Does great for average driveways after mowing, cleaning porches and small jobs. I don’t expect it to run 30 mins on one battery. I have several battery’s so no issue there. Surprised me with the power since there is flexvolt above it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned two other electric blowers and neither one worked this well. The ability to use various sized batteries makes it even better. The light weight makes it easy to use even in tight spots. The power is impressive as well.

I bought this to replace a corded blower that we had for 20 years. It is perfect for blowing out my garage. No fussing with getting out the extension cord. I just leave the battery in the blower and it is ready when I am!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The wind power is ok for a handheld, but battery life is terrible. If you need this for clearing off your deck or hitting your gutters quickly it will work for you. Not enough juice for serious leaf moving.

It’s a good blower for lawn clippings and light duty applications it lacks the power of corded blowers or fuel blowers . Not a fan of the tip design I think you lose velocity with the tip design

Great blower, It has a lot of power, lightweight and well balanced. The 20V battery lasts a long time. I bought another one for my wife because its lighter than my gas blower. She loves it.

My wife brought a DCBL722 blower for me at Christmas 5 months ago. I have only used it 4 or 5 times & recharged the battery after each use, now the battery will not take a charge.

Bought this to upgrade by job site blower witch I used a ton but just needed a little more “oomph” Definitely fit the bill, powerful, lightweight and great ergonomic design!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] HAVE HAD FOR A MONTH NOW. LOVE IT. MUCH MORE POWER THAN MY OLD RYOBI 18V. VERY LIGHTWEIGHT FOR THE POWER YOU GET. HAVE NOT HAD THE BATTERY GO DEAD ON ME YET.

The locking tab to hold the blower tube in place was broken in the box. It a shame because the product does seem to put out lots of air.

Best blower I’ve ever used, threw my gas powered stihl sh86 in scrap heap after using this once. World beater!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 54 year old female here! I won this at my companies Safety Fair recently. I own 3 air blowers now. My first one I purchased years ago is corded. It is horribly cumbersome and heavy with bag. I have a pool and my electrical cord was constantly going in pool. Scary, then I bought a Ryobi gas with a strap thinking ok I can do this. It's very heavy and really hurts using it. I won this at work in a raffle. Thinking well maybe. Opened box up, charged the battery and OMG!!!! This is the BEST Blower I have ever owned. I attached battery and away I went. I couldn't believe how amazingly light it was to carry around, turn on and do yard clean-up., I am so in LOVE with this Blower. Never expected this must perfection in a blower. We are a Dewalt tool family but for me being a woman and getting older I need something that I can easily use. Ladies and Men, this is the MUST have Blower for any homeowner of all ages. The force of the air and handling of unit is amazing. Yard clean-up is way better with this Dewalt Blower. I even used it to clean out my car from dirt and the dust under my couch in my house. We live in the desert and dust is everywhere. Love this blower.

Only lasts 15 minutes on a 6aH flexvolt. The 5 aH it came with will barely even run it. Very disappointed

Used a lot of cordless blowers in the past. This is way more powerful and still same runtime. Great tool!

The blower tub keeps falling off. It's fully settled by the clip, but it doesn't hold the tub in place.

Better than I thought i would be. A lot less noisy than the gas type and better for the environment.

If you’re going to state on the box includes a 5AH battery make sure you put the battery in the box
