EGO 56V 530 CFM Cordless Blower Review - Top in Its Class

Nothing more to say than this is the most powerful cordless elextric blower you can buy right now. With the Turbo activated, it can reach speeds of 110 mph.

[@tkellz8141]

Bought this and the hedge trimmer at Home Depot a few weeks ago. Extremely impressed with the performance so far. Will definitely be getting the grass trimmer soon. Will probably get the lawn mower this year too.

[@emmetwesley]

I'm happy with my EGO self-propelled 21 inch mower...may get one of these too

[@MichaeljMang]

I’ve had this blower( an older model) for about 2 years! It is definitely the best blower I’ve ever bought! I have an extra battery, so I’m never without power! I have a gas blower, and I rarely use it, anymore

[@deenugent473]

Just bought this same model at Home Depot 5/22/2019 for $149. I can't wait to try it out this weekend! Thanks for the review ;-)

[@Michael-hj3jg]

The 530 56v is 199.00

[@deenugent473]

@@Michael-hj3jg After testing it out, I was not happy and returned it the next day. My yard isn't that big, but after blowing the front yard, it ran out of battery once I got to my backyard. Oh well, back to the power cord I go. Too bad really!

[@IBOO57]

Bought the mower and Trimmer on the weekend and they blew me away. Guess its time for one of these now as well!

[@birdrockwaverly]

Great review Brian. I bought a nice Dewalt blower yesterday and it was defective. The fully charged battery went dead in 5 minutes. So I took it back to Home Depot today and said screw it, I'm buying an EGO this time which the guys in the HD repair shop had recommended, I purchased the 530 CFM and it crushes the DEWALT. I love it 😊

[@EverydayReviews2022]

The nice thing is that if you decide to expand your arsenal, the battery system works throughout the entire range of products. I'm upgrading soon and all my 6 year old batteries will still work in the newer products. I'm excited!

[@JimmyG3237]

I'm sooo excited to try mine!! Just got it today from ACE Hardware. 😊

[@wyatt2439]

Ego actually did make the 5 bar battery indicator that you would like to have. I got the new 650 CFM model with 7.5ah battery and it kicks ass! Blowing the car using the ego blower after washing is a great idea. Thanks bro!

[@hanaleimesa82]

I rowed the dice 🎲 🎲 on this buy this morning, watched your review and was so stoked and I can dry my truck with, Aloha from Hawaii 🤙🏼

[@EverydayReviews2022]

They even have a more powerful one now.

[@five_star_images3019]

I just got a display model at homedepot with battery and charger for $125. I don’t have trees in my yard so this will work out perfect after I cut the grass.

[@brenthill5596]

Nice review. I have all the EGO tools except the chainsaw and snowblower. I've abused all the tools for 2 seasons and I'm still very happy with them.

[@MoneyGrowthAcademy]

Great video! I enjoy your delivery. I’m sold!

[@africanhistory]

Did not think about the car. Thanks mate

[@EnigmaticPeanut]

ive bought and used the 580 today, and its beautiful ! i only had high expectations about it, and it went beyond. i dont know how it will hold up, its new, but im very confident that its well built(and theres a 5! years waranty ) i also got the snowblower with 2 7.5ah batteries and a backpack link. got standart chargers because i heard they are better for battery life, and they charge fast enough.

@Callan Rafael no problem =)

[@erike7297]

I tested the ip4 rated water resistance on my 530 cfm ego blower today and it passed. I completely saturated the blower with a hose trigger at about half pressure which I figured would simulate a heavy rainfall. Ran the blower for a short period of time and no issues. I take it most people wont be running there gear in rain that heavy. I mostly just wish the ego products didn't lag when you pull the trigger. My blower, weed eater, and hedge trimmer all lag for at least a good second after you pull the trigger and its annoying as hell. My Milwaukee yard tools for example don't lag at all so.. yea., but the water resistance thing ego states right on the box is a big plus. I'm not fond of how ego made these tools look like toys. Its like they went out of there way to design this stuff power rangers style. That's a big reason I went all Milwaukee ( plus Milwaukee rocks) before I had to succumb to Egos water resistant property's. Well done Ego

[@edgallagher8099]

Thanx for the info. I have also only went with Milwaukee until the original EGO mower came out at HomeDepot and I picked it up. That mower and the original battery it came with are still working 9 years later!! So I picked up the self feeding trimmer and wow I am impressed but I needed a blower now lol so I randomly came across this blower on the discount rack and a worker at Lowes comes over and says what one u looking at and I said the EGO which he already had priced down to 70 and he said would you pay 40 lol I was like hell ya lol I asked him what is wrong with it and he said they were just making room for the new models lol. Iv never been that lucky haha. But anyway I didn't get a box with it so I never realized it was water resistant!! Thanks for the info!!

[@leeclark8557]

EGO listened to you. Now their batteries have a bar indicator. :)

[@EverydayReviews2022]

It really was needed. I got used to it though

[@sharonsflorida7900]

I just bought one from Home Depot ... thanks for helping me decide! I was trying to decide between the EGO and the Poulan. After watching your video I decided to go with the EGO ... and I'm thrilled with it ... it is amazing. I am replacing a 40v Black & Decker ... and wish I had done it sooner because the EGO works so much better and is so much quieter. The noise is a different pitch ... not shrill like the B & D. It is much heavier, but if I just swing it back and forth it's manageable. It actually got the leaves out of my rocky driveway which is something the B & D never did.

[@mikewischer4394]

Bought the 650CFM blower and used once, went to use today and the battery was dead. I called service line and they troubleshot with me turns out I have a defective battery and now have to wait till the snow flies, I guess I will use this in the spring.

[@COddietsch]

Wasn’t for sure if this was enough power. Sold. Thanks $79 on Amazon

[@Tom-tm7jf]

I love my EGO line up I have the mower the blower and the weed eater also the hedge trimmer I love them all 👍

[@dogwood8031]

I have one, works great. Don't leave the battery in the charger.

[@usmc249]

Why not?

[@TheHulabob]

I HAVE THE EGO MAX POWER IT PUTS OUT 6 LBS OF THRUST i bought it from home depot when they first came out with the battery and charger under the price they want now so i bought another home depot same low price if i mount two of them on a bike side by side that's so much thrust it would push the bike very fast ! i tried with one ended up hitting a water brake drum no injuries tho!

[@EverydayReviews2022]

I want to try and propel myself as well!

[@tsnstt]

As you mentioned, if I have the lawnmower with the 7.5ah, can I use this battery on this blower that you’re reviewing? Will the extra amperage (from 2.5 to 7.5) damage this blower? Or will it improve performance for example I can use this blower longer for a longer run time?

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Yes you can use all batteries in any of the EGO devices regardless of the size. They are all interchangeable. By using the 7.5, you will dramatically increase your run time, performance will be the same. You will be adding quite a bit more weight though compared to the 2.5.

[@tsnstt]

Everyday Reviews I just smashed the blue button a million times until it turned blue!!

[@supra2k8]

Can you use the 5Ah battery (from an ego lawn mower), on the ego site it says the 2.5Ah recommended

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Absolutely! You can use the 10 Ah if you’d like. It just makes it heavier. I like the 5 on it as I use turbo a lot.

[@supra2k8]

@@EverydayReviews2022 awesome, hopefully the weight of the 5 Ah doesn't through the balance off too much

[@Steves_Embroidery_Studio]

$99 at Home Depot in store right now! Includes battery & charger.

[@shortdom107]

Not anymore

[@jamesm.8392]

If Ego would reverse engineer their 650 Leaf Blower into a Leaf Vacuum/Mulcher similar in design to the Worx wg524 along with a hose to trash can adapter they would completely capture that market.

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Great idea.

[@falcon81701]

Sold! Im buying one thanks!

[@chrisrob722]

Great solid review! And here I am 4 years later and you made my decision. Going to order mine today. Unless you suggest anything newer that came to the market? Or does this still hold up?

[@EverydayReviews2022]

This one's still good but there is an even more powerful one out now if you want even more Ooomf! They make a 650 CFM 180 MPH one now. The more power the harder to hold though.

[@chrisrob722]

@@EverydayReviews2022 thank you I probably didn't even need the more powerful one but I always like to have the latest. I went with the 650!!

[@michaelgreenslade2161]

Run time with my E Go arc56v is 45 minutes with a full charge, mix power usage.?

[@exigejoe]

Is it very good in drying cars?

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Yes.

[@1d1hamby]

Now they have the 600CFM backpack blower.

[@dagconst1]

Helpful review ! Ty

[@Viettzz]

Does EGO have different tube that you can use with this Cordless Blower? Like a tube with a smaller nozzle? Im trying to get one of these to blow dry my car everytime I wash it.

[@EverydayReviews2022]

+jincuteguy No, it only comes with the one tube. Best bet is to buy it, try it and if it doesn't do what you want it to do, bring it back. That's one of the main reasons I bought the EGO brand, because they sell it at Home Depot.

[@tsnstt]

If I use the 2.5ah battery on the 650cfm blower can I still get the blower to perform at 180 mph?

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Yes. Any of the batteries will give you the same power, just different runtime.

[@tsnstt]

Everyday Reviews one other question then... should I spend the extra $50 to get the 650cfm blower? And all I’ll do is use the 2.5ah battery that I have with my trimmer or the 7.5 that I have with my double blade blower.

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Thanks 🙏

[@Fedproman]

I just bought one of these and it oozes quality, but I was shocked and disappointed that if you had to send the unit back for warranty work, you have to pay to send it to the UK. That is ridiculous.

[@alejandromelendez9062]

Is it good for lawn service companies?

[@Nikola_Tezla]

just got my ego 530 blower, why does it keep turning off and on repeatedly?

[@EverydayReviews2022]

+Curly P It shouldn't do that. Is the battery fully charged?

[@Nikola_Tezla]

Everyday Reviews I got it now...the battery wasn't fully charged that's why. Thanks..

[@aaronfuksa2047]

these are far higher cfms than the gas blowers I browsed which claim 175-200mph?, they must be over stating the stats. I go by cfm rating.

[@UhhhhhnooOOo00oO]

How about a trial of the product you are reviewing. I heard it turn on once and run for 5 seconds with no sound. Reviews shouod be better.

[@nuclearthreat545]

SHOW US WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE

[@keithfillinger3182]

nuclearthreat545 I have Ego's backpack blower. The backpack blower is 600 CFM. It is fairly quiet. I do not need hearing protection when I use the boost mode. In boost mode, it is just a high pitched whine. It is not loud enough to damage hearing. I kind of wish I would have bought their 580 CFM hand held blower though.

[@carlosmedina6133]

Este producto me ah molido pa cabeza, es un terrible dolor de cabeza, mal mal mal.

LMFAO at him pulling it back in "turbo" mode. 🤣

[@janehalper2388]

I've watched a few reviews of this blower and they all do it, one guy even made a point of saying it would happen and he has to push back against the turbo when he switches it on

Excellent review, answered my question. I just Subscribed! 👍☺

[@jerkster9114]

Disclosure, this guy got this unit for free in exchange for his "unbiased" review.

[@EverydayReviews2022]

Because I like all my Ego products mean that I got them for free? Sorry but that isn't the case. Sorry you don't think the product is as good as me. I seriously love all of them and plan on PURCHASING more. My first purchase was my lawnmower before they went to the newer self propelled version and other than the blade getting dull, it works just as well as the day that I bought it.

[@jerkster9114]

You are telling me this is a real - un-paid- review? Also you forgot to mention the battery lasts 9 minutes in full power

[@EverydayReviews2022]

This is an un-paid review. If you watch my other reviews as well, you'll notice that I don't review them right away, I like to give them a proper test. I'm currently testing a handful of items that I won't film the review for another couple of months. If you're not a fan of the EGO, no problem. Each has their own opinion. It works perfect for me. If you're using it commercially or have a huge yard, its probably not for you as I mentioned. The only bias is that I didn't buy the competitors products and can only compare those with their specs and with my own experience with gas mowers, blowers etc. Thank-you for the comment.

[@jerkster9114]

I dont have a big yeard, but it does take more than 10 minutes to blow it. can you please confirm that this battery lasts no more than 10 minutes in full power?

[@brenthill5596]

+Jerkster 12 minutes with my 2ah small battery on turbo the whole time. 30-35 minutes with my larger 5ah battery on turbo the whole time. I rarely have to even use turbo though unless I'm moving piles of wet leaves like I did a few days ago.

[@Waltwizzle]

You have to use turbo button 12 to 15 minutes is nuts !! A bigger battery is over a 100 bucks def not worth it waste of money
