The Ryobi OBL18JB 18V ONE+ Cordless Jet Blower is a versatile and efficient tool designed to make clearing debris from gardens and outdoor areas easier. The blower boasts a high-efficiency jet fan design that provides maximum performance, with an impressive 160km/hr air speed and 7.9m3/min air volume.

What users think:

Many users found the Ryobi OBL18JB 18V ONE+ Cordless Jet Blower to be ideal for clearing leaves, debris, and grass cuttings in their garden.

However, the Ryobi OBL18JB 18V ONE+ Cordless Jet Blower has been criticised for lacking power compared to larger models. This can make it challenging to clear large areas or wet leaves. Additionally, some users have reported that the nozzle can fall off while in use, which can be frustrating.

The run-time of the Ryobi OBL18JB 18V ONE+ Cordless Jet Blower can vary depending on the battery used, which means that some users may find it runs out of power before they have finished their garden work if they are using one of the smaller Ryobi batteries.

Direct quotes from owners:

Very good blower light in weight and easy to use, you need a second battery

Not too bad on dry leaves but if they are wet and on longer grass you literally have to blow one leaf at a time.

This small leaf blower is fine for small areas but I was disappointed with the power of the blower, should have went for the next model up.
