Homelite UT42100 Electric Blower Review

The fine folks at Home Depot sent me the Homelite UT42100 electric blower so I could try it out. I already own a much larger leaf blower so I was eager to try out this smaller one. This little guy packs quite a punch and makes cleaning up a walkway, driveway or small project site a breeze.

This little 7 amp power house has two speeds; quiet and power, ranging from 120 mph to 150 mph. At a very reasonable suggested retail price of just under $30 it’s really hard to find much wrong with this blower. The only thing I don’t like (and I don’t like this about my larger one) is the fact that you have to plug it into a electrical power supply. But, for $30 it’s really hard to complain and expect a gas powered unit! The unit only weighs 5 lbs so it’s very light and easy to use. I’ll definitely use this around the yard this summer cleaning up my messes and keeping the walkways looking great.

I would definitely suggest this product for anyone looking for a very inexpensive lightweight leaf/dust blower. If you’re interested in this product it’s available exclusively at Home Depot.
