I like the ryobi as I already have a ryobi lawn mower and they use the same battery.
Been waiting for this matchup. Thanks for the info!
I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomSEx3 There are some huge trees around my house and the leaves and pods drop all over my deck. Having to move furniture around to sweep has become too big a chore. This blower was the answer. It is light enough for this 70yr old lady and powerful enough to blow all the tree droppings off my rather large deck. Thank you B&D. Be aware the cord is not included. I use a 3 prong outdoor cord 25' cord for my 12' x 20' deck. The cord retainer works very well, but don't try to pass the plug through it. That is NOT how it works. You just have to loop the cord and it works great. One of my best purchases. Very happy.
Both are really good honestly
Thankyou for the Ego and Ryobi blower comparison’s, since I already have the Ego mower. I’ll vote for Ego!!
Love it! Thanks and we will keep you updated 🤑
Amazing review video! Probably one of the funniest I've ever seen. Well done sir!
Thanks, Chris!
I have been trying to decide. This is an exceptional review! I have an Ego trimmer so will have to consider that.
They have some great string trimmers, too! We are going to review the powerhead multi tool soon, with string trimmer attachment.
Great video! since I already have quite a few of the Ryobi 40v products, I'll vote for that one!
Awesome, thanks Gerald! Hope you stick around.
Just bought a 765 and it gets the job done quick. It's big and kind of heavy but no issues when using a shoulder strap. Can't wait to use it for the snow.
Hey Tweety! Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I’ve seen a lot of cool videos showing it on snow. Looks cool!
Which one 765 ego?
Thank you for the comparison report, it really helps me to determine which one to buy.
Thanks, Danny. Which one are you going with?
So informative, clear and fun! Thank you!
Thanks, Mia! Hope you stick around!
I bought both the 750 CFM Ryobi and the 765 CFR EGO.
Did some tests of my own and ended up keeping the EGO and returning the Ryobi.
The Ryobi is pretty good, but I like the EGO better for the following reasons:
1. Clearly more powerful and seems to push leaves and debris a further distance
2. One problem with the Ryobi is you cannot rest it against your waist/leg as the air is sucked in from the back end. The air is sucked in from the side on the EGO. I find my self positioning the back end of the blower on my upper leg as the force of the blower tends to push it backward.
3. The EGO has two handles on the side which are helpful for tilting the blower when you are in a tight space.
The pros for the Ryobi is that it comes with two batteries, is less expensive as are it's replacement batteries.
They are both very good and I think people would be happy with either unit.
Gotta agree with you here!
Ego👍👍👍 I just finished my lawn removing leaves 🍂 and can't say enough about how well it works 👌👌👌👌🌟
That's awesome! How many times are you going to have to do that this fall??
OMG, the spin test was hilarious. Very thorough comparison. 👍👍
Thank you David! Yeah things got wild hahaha
Which blower did you think was best?
I would be biased to answer that question since I have couple of ego products to include that blower, however both of them have it’s strength and weaknesses. I do like the power of ego though.
Both great blowers but for me I'd take the Ryobi for one simple reason, it's amazingly quiet. You really have to hear difference in person to appreciate the difference between a "normal" blower and the Ryobi Whisper series.
I can dig that. Especially if you get lawn work done while the kids are napping.
@@TheLawnReviewshouldn't we be napping while the kids are doing yard work ? In a perfect world...😅
Thanks for the great video they are defiantly close in ever aspect. For me i would vote for the Ryobi since of the platform and cheaper batteries if you needed more.
Ahoy, Captin! Nice choice!
Great video love the Ryobi
Thanks Bruce!
Just a heads up when you did the cruise control test on low you had the run times mixed up on the blowers. Not sure if you'd be able to add annotations for that. But otherwise great video and thank you for the breakdown!
Thanks, Mad Mackey! Honest mistake. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Great comparison and right to the point....I appreciate you.
Thank you, Robert!!
It took me a year after you made it to see this review but thank you all the same. Based on the thorough review you did, even though I would probably pick the EGO by a nose, I'm going to buy the Ryobi because it was closed and I have the Ryobi snow blower and four 40V Ryobi battery so I'm already invested in the ecosystem. Thanks again, subscribed.
Yeah that is not a bad option in this case
Great video with detailed analysis.
Thanks, Jay! Any requests?
You keep coming up with test like the faceflap and chair idea, and the next thing you know they'll be calling you "the science guy". lmbo that was pretty good, great presentation. Thinking I'm going to pick up the Ryobi tomorrow based upon this review.
Thanks for the kind words! Awesome - it is a good one. Do you have other Ryobi 40V tools?
Love the test you did. We have an Ego mover and love it, it cut where the 6.5hp has mover dies
That's impressive! I have a gas mower that would get choked up so easily and die. Weak sauce!
This started from a pretty normal to chaotic review comparison towards the end with the swivel chair lol. Also, the Face Flap challenge should be a metric for all leaf blowers. Great review sir!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, face flaps should be an advertised specification for all lawn blowers.
I agree completely, those were my favorite tests. Lol
Definitely would go with the go blower! Already commented on the last video very excited for the giveaway results!
Thanks Ben! You’re in! Twice!
Great video!!! I noticed you listed the number backwards for the lowest speed time test. May want to correct it.
Good catch! Thanks, Kevin.
With the ryobi design when you did the turbo test, the log was blocking what looks to be 1/3 of the intake whereas the ego intake is further forward and unobstructed by the log at the rear of the unit. Curious if they were actually closer on that test due to the restriction. Good review!
Hey Nicholas - thanks for pointing that out. Not sure that had an impact, but certainly may have. Thanks for watching and hope you stick around!
Hi, I know this video was done some time ago, but I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed your video. I love your comparison tests, and you had a lot of fun doing it. I specifically wanted a comparison between these two blowers because, these are the most popular ones used by most Car Detailer’s. The comparison between the two is very close, and the decision is even harder, but I do know that I will definitely be buying one of these two blowers. A lot of the Detailer’s seem to like the EGO, because of the power, it will dry the car much faster, and better in some of those hard to reach areas. (Just made my mine up as I was typing this) I will get the EGO, because of the following two points: from your comparison the battery does last longer than the Ryobi’s, and also since it is more powerful I should be able to dry the car faster, which means that I can turn the blower off faster, which should make the battery last longer. I will also see if I can purchase a second battery for the EGO, which will also help. Thanks again, Dexter H.
Thank you for the thoughtful response and I'm glad we were able to help. Let me know how it goes!
Awesome, AWESOME Review 🔥👍
Wow! Thanks, Reese! Hope you stick around.
Good information. Would love the Ryobi to replace my old weak blower. Thanks
Got you down, Brian!
Best reviews. Subscribed
Thank you!!
Whichever brand you go with, if you're planning to go full battery products then you're better off getting same brand for everything so all your equipment takes the same battery and you'll have several of them
Hi Dylan, thanks for the comment! You’re exactly right!
And don't forget to get the most mah expensive batteries x6 lol
@@eliaslopez489 Those costs add up fast!
I bought my first battery blower, well first blower period I chose battery because it’s a lot quieter than gas and it’s simple charge and go and I don’t disturb my neighbors I chose ryobi because I own ryobi one plus tools and with the blower at least I can share it’s battery with another 40v tool like chainsaw which is next on my list
🎯🎯
Thanks. I was looking at these two blowers. During father's day of 2023 both kits were the same price. Lowe's did a buy $200 Gift card, get $30 so it was more work to get the same price but doable. I got the Ego, but it was a lot of back and forth, really digging the about of competition between the different brands.
Nice! In my opinion, that was a good choice!
Thanks for doing the comparison. I love my Ryobi 40V stuff and would love to win that blower!! You win....the chair comparison is the funniest comparison I've seen yet on Ryobi tools!
Got you down, Rich!
Ego I love ,I just bought the 16 inch trimmer love the unit they had a sale on the cheaper model came with blower. But the one zi bought ab506.00 Canadian with no blower. I LOVE THEM.
Glad you have good experiences!
I love this guy. The spin zone lol love you man. Something I wou have done too!
hahah it was pretty fun
I am in the market for cordless lawn tools so very timely video.
Thanks, Adrian! You can enter our giveaway here: lawnreviewgiveaway.lpages.co/monthly-giveaway/
Great comparison! EGO is the blower I would pick! I’ve never used any EGO products, but I would like to get this blower in the future 👍
Awesome - we've got you down!
@@TheLawnReview Any updates on the giveaway?
For sure the Ego.!.! It’s amazing
Nice Omar! It’s legit. What’s your favorite part?
Thanks for the video. Very informative. I subscribed to you and gave you a thumbs up. If I get selected, I'd love the EGO blower. Thanks again!
Thank you, Phillip - really appreciate you taking the time to comment!
I absolutely LOVE this video! I was so inspired, I just subscribed. Your video is so very thorough with so many tests... thank you! I've been trying to decide which non-gas tools to purchase, before the leaves start really falling soon. Based on your video results, I vote for EGO due to the longer battery life & stronger power. Though, I do love the "whisper" sound of the Ryobi & quicker charge time. Both do seem to be great quality. The chair test was beyond epic!
I have a quick question... within the EGO line of leaf blowers, do you have any other suggestions for *your* preferred EGO models or do *you* only prefer this specific EGO model? I'm just getting familiar with this green non-gas line of lawn power tools. Thank you in advance for your feedback.
Hey D H - thank you so much for the kinds words! EGO has a few options within their blower lineup, but you can read more about this specific blower here: thelawnreview.com/ego-lb7654-blower/
This page should also help you identify what to look for in an electric blower. If you are looking for one with a little less power, there is also the LB650, which you can read about here: thelawnreview.com/ego-power-lb6504-blower/
@@TheLawnReview
Thank YOU so much !!!
No problem! But if you’re looking for a “like gas” power situation than the 765 CFM model will be your best best!
Oh, great to know.
Thank you again !
I got into the Ryobi ecosystem because of a sale. .....and have never regretted it
Glad you like yours!
Really like your presentation style, and the quality of your video. Really a unique testing approach and style. I had to ‘replay’ the spinning chair segment couple of times, priceless!
I dont know if you’ve already given these away, but I just bought the Ryobi, based on this and a few other reviews. BTW, Ryobi gives you two of those tips, so you can have an extra one, or have two cut for two different speeds. And by cutting the tip, you lose MPH, but gain CFM. Both of these are good units, and I hope us Consumers will benefit from ever increasing performance and battery advances.
Lowe’s VS Home Depot; EGO VS Ryobi, is what it comes down to, not to mention the platform, like you said. Your channel must be new, but you deserve more Subscribers. I just HIT that Subscribe button!
Stay safe and Healthy! 👍✌😊
Thanks, George! We are new to the UA-cam world but have a decent sized website (thelawnreview.com). We appreciate you subscribing!
I've had the ego 530 for years, and without issue. The 765 just looks like too much fun not to upgrade.
It's pretty wild!
As someone withouth a lawn nor leaves to blow. This video is 10/10
Thank you!
I'm already in the EGO line, so that's my pick.
Love it, we got you down!
That spin test had me rollin 😂
Bro it got out of hand haha
Love that EGO 765 CFM blower!
It definitely spins a chair pretty fast.
I just bought the EGO 56V 765 CFM blower, and retired my STIHL BG 56C! No fumes, no fuel, and less noise! My neighbors hate me a little less.
Love to hear it!
Ego definitely, I was gonna buy one in a few days, but maybe the giveaway will be in my favour :)
fingers crossed!
The chair trick was awesome. I'm returning my ryobi for the ego
Thanks Tywon! It was a blast putting this video together
Another great video
I think the Ryobi wins this one
I like the battery life and quick charging
Thank you Richard! Love the feedback! Ryobi certainly does it right a lot of the time. We’re going to post a three way comparison in the next few weeks. Super pumped about it.
Good video. I ordered the 2 battery kit for the 765 cfm blower and it comes with a fast charger. Roughly 45 mins for full charge. Not bad at all for $450 from acme tools
I mostly dry cars after washing with the ego and it’s a beast. turbo use.
Love that! Glad you like it.
I like this video. Funny and informative!!!
Thank you! Any requests for us?
@@TheLawnReview I am interested in gas vs cordless mowers. Performance, power and run time. I am also interested finding some good front tine tillers.

Ryoby for sure! Great job 👌
Thanks, Ivan!
I have been thinking about buying the EGO, but now I’m considering the Ryobi for the following reasons. It one with two batteries which if you add them together has a longer run time, unless you buy a extra one for the EGO which will cost you $500. Also les wear and tear with two batteries should last longer. The Ryobi is quieter probably because it is not quite as powerful. The nozzle with the variable speeds that you indicated that once you cut them you can’t go back is no big deal, just don’t cut them. You can control the air flow with the variable speed. I’m now conflicted as I was thinking about the EGO. But it will come down to the power for me as I want a blower that can blow some light snow. Great video, keep them coming.
Thanks, C! Any requests of other products?
I know I'm late to the game. I ended up buying an ego blower because it was on sale, but I am considering switching over to Ryobi because I already have the trimmer, mower, and snow blower. I got the trimmer first and absolutely love it. It works with universal attachments where the ego doesn't. I have A LOT of attachments that I got used for dirt cheap.
The incompatibility with the attachments is what is keeping me from moving over to Ego. You are stuck with the ego string trimmer attachments and they are super expensive.
Excellent comparison video. THANK YOU!!
Thank you Taina!
Both look awesome but if I had to pick I would love the Ego
Thanks Marvin! You’re in the running!
Excellent review. Do you know the best leaf vacuum and mulcher with different sizes of bags?
I think Makita makes a really good battery powered one but there are also some really good corded ones from WORX and Ryobi. I wrote about it here: thelawnreview.com/best-leaf-blower-vacuum-combos/
@@TheLawnReview awesome! After mowing the lawn, I want to suck all the grass on the walkway. There are not a lot. So I don’t need the huge mulching bag. I am wondering if there are some smaller sized bags that I can attach to the vacuum for small amount of grass.
Your battery test were great! beside lil speed times swap on low speeds test
Thank you! Glad you liked it. Hope you keep watching.
Nice blower thinking of getting one👍
Which one??
Very clever, thoughtful and in depth. I expected EGO to win but did not expect such a blow out.
Love the pun there, too!
Ego hands down!!! I just bought their 21 select cut xp. I need a blower too. I gave my DeWalt 20v to my dad. I liked and subscribed hoping to win and save some money. Regardless of that excellent video keep up the good work
Thanks man!
Thank you for the thorough comparison. One feature which I think is important with leaf blowers is the overall weight with the battery attached. How does the weight of these units compare?
The EGO is definitely heavier but also feels sturdier. Which one are you going with?
@@TheLawnReview Thanks for the reply. I'm leaning toward the EGO. and I see that you show the weight in your video, so sorry for asking for that info. I think I'll go with a lower power EGO (615cfm w/ 2.5 ah battery). This combo will be lighter than either of the models you compared.
@@mili224 Not a bad choice. Let me know how you like it!
Great review!
Thanks Steve!
great video might go with EGO
Probably the best choice 😁
Thank you for the video. It appears as if the battery for the EGO is the same for my EGO lawnmower. I have the top end EGO lawnmower. Are the batteries interchangeable in both devices?
Yes, all EGO batteries work in all EGO products - a huge benefit of going with them.
I bought the Ryobi Leave blower but also bought the 6.0Ah battery so I can finish doing my lawn.
Glad you like yours!
Having owned both Ryobi mowers and other tools, and Ego mower and tools, I've noticed that my Ryobi battery life wasn't great... The batteries ended up losing run time within a year and a half of consistent use, I found my mower not being able to complete my lawn on one charge halfway into my second year with the product. My Ego mower and tools have had a year of consistent use, and I haven't really noticed any drop off for battery capacity.
EGO rocks
There is no doubt the EGO is more powerful, it does have far more Wh than the Ryobi. When I was looking to make a purchase it was at the top of my list but i ultimately chose the Ryobi because I was coming from a convertible gas powerhead and still had all my attachments. EGO made it so you could not use existing attachments on their convertable powerhead and that was a deal breaker for me. Their attachments were overpriced in my opinion. In real world use, I can trim edge and blow all I need to on one battery with the Ryobi and still have 2 bars left so I'm happy. Thank you for your video.
Yep - that is a really logical way to approach it. Glad you're happy and exactly what I would recommend.
On Australia Ryobi offer replacement warranty where ego offer repair warranty. Egos service can be really bad too
Video was worth watching to get to the chair test!😂
lmao i almost ended up in the ER!
Very Informative content.
Thank you - which one are you going with?
I like the Ryobi one!!
Nice - do you have it?
Ego also have a 765 kit with 2 batteries for about $120 more. Comparing batteries the 40v x4Ah Ryobi provides 160Wh of power while the 56v x 5Ah Ego provides 224 Wh of power. That’s why EGO takes longer to charge and lasts much longer on the low speed. For higher speed tests it’s normal the RGO has lea advantage since it’s much more powerful, the leaves were moving much better with the EGO in the video. If the leaves move better then the time to clear will be shorter. For me the EGO is the clear winner in time to clear the yard which is the point of having a blower. You didn’t show how the flat nozzle works on the EGO, it would be nice to see what it has to offer. Also the strap is a nice addition.
Thanks! Agreed on both. We didn't feel the need for the strap, but it would have been great to show off the flat nozzle as well.
I would have loved seeing both using 5ah batteries to be fair. I think the 5ah gives ten extra minutes according to Ryobi.
Great Review!
I have Milwaukee m18 tools & was leaning towards the Milwaukee blower, until I saw how weak & power hungry it is. The Milwaukee landscape tools also became cost prohibitive until I came accross these 2 brands. Looking at blower, trimmer, & mover & building into those products over the next 2 years. Ryobi batteries seem to be cheaper, which might be the Achilles heal with the Ego batteries. I also heard Home Depot will swap defective batteries on the spot with Ryobi, where Ego takes a few days after you make a warranty claim. Which brand would you recommend for a landscape platform?
For a landscape platform, I'd go with EGO. If you already own a bunch of Ryobi tools then I'd go with them to save money, though.
Had a few 24v ryobi tools and they got rid of that battery platform entirely so that kinda left a bad taste with Ryobi landscaping tools. Hoping the 40v stays. It’s the huge downside of investing money into a battery platform. Milwaukee has never done that. Which is why I prefer their tools. Still don’t think battery tech is suited for most landscaping needs though no matter what the brand is
Actuall test starts at 11 min. Thx for the review!
Any time!
Ego. Their whole family of battery operated tools seem to be of high quality. Ready to take the plunge this September...but kinda hoping to get lucky before then!
Thanks Dan!!
Ryobi is doing great! 2-3 years of having their tools and no issues so far!
Glad to hear it! Some are hit or miss, so glad you're doing well
Great video. How do the overall handling of each compare? I know it’s close. Is there one of these two that is just easier to handle/hold when using? Does one put less strain on your wrist/arm? The way the Ryobi seems to flare out in the back, makes it seem more cumbersome, compared to the EGO, is it? Unfortunately the big box stores may have display models, but you get actually rest them. Thanks!
Hey Greg! I appreciate the comment! I would say the difference is pretty small but you’re exactly right. The Ryobi’s weight causes it to naturally sit a little pitched backwards. Honestly, I can’t really find a flaw in the EGO blower
Thank you so much!
I’ll take the Ego win with more power , & longer lasting performance even if $30 more , I’m vested more with DeWalt but from other blower reviews on them seemed to perform less favorable . The Ego blower would start my new platform followed by their trimmer , & mower that all gave great performance reviews as well.
EGO is a wonderful brand.
The spin zone was awesome. you need a contingency plan in the event you have lift-off!!
FULL THROTTLE BABY!!! Thanks Tom!
Good comparison. For me it would be the EGO because I already have those batteries. Did you think the EGO was loud enough that you would want to wear ear muffs while using it? Thanks for a good review.
I don't wear ear protection with the EGO. The ryobi has actually gotten higher pitched the longer I have it, so I like wearing ear protection for that one.
@@TheLawnReview Interesting!
Thanks for the review! The EGO is the one I'd go with. Just add another battery to the purchase. By the way... adding the cost of another EGO battery in the review would be nice,
Thanks for the comment! I agree!
In Canada right now, regular price, the Ego is actually $9 cheaper than the Ryobi. Thanks for this review, exactly they type of review I needed to make a decision and based on this, I would have paid more for the Ego as mentionned but it's actually cheaper, bonus!
Wow! Thanks for the update. Go grab yours!
Quite often when getting into battery powered tools you choose a brand and stay with them because of the batteries working with various tools that you buy. So if you have a string trimmer and blower and hedge trimmer etc. you will already own multiple batteries to run as long as you want.
Right - and when you buy the tool only version, you can save a TON of money.
I'd love to see you test out the Ryobi 40V, 730 CFM Blower with the battery backpack link using Three 6Ah batteries!!!! Please!!
Every tester claim using what comes out the box (standard set up),but never use both batteries from Ryobi. Lol😅 one charges while the other is in use is a huge advantage. Kudos for him to mention it
Thanks! You're totally right here!
I've been using my 1st gen EGO 480 cfm for many years. Great on smooth surfaces. Ok in the grass. My ECHO PB9010T makes short work of anything else.
How do you decide when to use which?
@@TheLawnReview The EGO only does occasional front porch or back deck duty. It's also good to blow out the dryer vent. I have a lot of trees at a lake house that the 9010 is happy to deal with. I get knee deep to waist deep leaves this time of year.
@@COC785 Dryer vent is a great idea - hadn't thought of that. What part of the country do you live in? Something tells me somewhere near the appalachians.
@@TheLawnReview I'm in NC. I forgot to add the EGO is used occasionally to dry the truck after washing. The newer 765 cfm 200 mph model would probably work a lot better for drying vehicles. I normally use the 9010 or my Redmax ebz 8500 with a tapered 7500 model end nozzle.
@@COC785 Oh wow - yeah a lot of people use these for their cars after removing the nozzle.
Ego quality is #1. After 5 years, all my Ego still going strong, including all batteries 👍👍👍.
You’re not wrong, Van!
When testing the run times you an actually see the difference in how the air disperses from each blower the ryobi seems to have a more concentrated air flow and the e go seems to fan out
Yeah the nozzle tip concentrator on the Ryobi does that. Pretty cool
I like the Ego but I have Ryobi products already so I’ll go with the Ryobi
Not a bad choice!
The Ryobi blower is my favorite
Got it down! Thanks
I did a lot research for a blower I have a gas one but always breaking down on me so if I can pick one of this will be EGO 765.
You wouldn’t be disappointed with that.
It's all about the chosen platform, and I'm deep into the RYOBI platform, with two trimmers, blower, 2 chainsaws, lawn mower, Earth Auger, Vacuum, hedge trimmer and over 30 one plus 18v tools. So for me it's RYOBI.
Thanks, Robert. How do you like the 18V compared to the 40V series? Enough power?
@@TheLawnReview The OPE definitely benefits from having 40 volt brushless motors...
Their is no comparison when it comes to their use in lawn mowers ,trimmers, blowers and chainsaws.
I entered the platform with 18 volt and for hand tools work Great. My lopper, small oil less 8" chainsaw and 22" hedge trimmer are 18 volt all of the rest of my OPE I've long since upgraded to the 40 volt platform.
I own 8-40volt batteries(4~6 Ah) and 13-18 volt batteries(2~6 Ah) so run time is never an issue.
Gasoline has long been a thing if the past for me with the exception of my DeWalt 4400 PSI 4.0 GPM pressure washer and RYOBI 6500 Watt 240 volt Generator everything else battery, with the car being Next... Pickup truck will have to wait $$$ 🥵
I've got the ego mower would love the blower too
Nice Zbullet! You’re in the pool. Do you like the mower?
@@TheLawnReview I have a small flat yard so works great cut thick wet grass with only 4 chokes but I had the setting to low for the first pass
@@ZBULLET523 Low settings can do that sometimes - especially with wet grass.
I like the Ryobi 730 CFM blower so much that I bought another one. I use one for starting to blow snow from the house's front door so that I don't leave footprints on the deck, the stairs, and the ramp, on my way to the car in the front and one for starting from the garage to blow snow away from the garage doors and from the pickup truck parked in the back. I even bought 2 more 6 ah batteries. I now have 33 battery-powered tools...some DeWALT and most Ryobi. The Ryobi blower is more powerful than my Stihl gas blower. The new Ryobi blower comes with 2 tips but I just leave both blowers with the 190 mph tip mounted.
Wow - you have some serious Ryobi gear! What's your favorite?
@@TheLawnReview I built my 32' x 32' x 10' garage in 2014 and, for some strange reason that I cannot remember, I never insulated the roof and the gables as I did with the wall and the doors. In preparation for insulating the roof, I bought 4 Ryobi battery staplers: a regular crown staple gun, a narrow crown stapler, an 18 gauge brad stapler, and a 16 gauge finish nailer. The guy who did all the work liked the crown and narrow crown stapler. I already had the DeWALT table saw and DeWALT compound miter saw. R13 insulation was nowhere to be found and so we used two layers of R11 insulation with wood furring strips to increase the height for the extra layer of 4" insulation. We topped that with a layer of 1/8" foil foam insulation for its reflective value and topped everything with 1x2" wooden stripes every 2 feet to keep everything in place so that nothing could sag. We ended up with an insulation value of R24 and It keeps everything toasty warm. With all the powdery snow, I love the Ryobi 40-volt, 190 mph, and 730 CFM "leaf" blowers.
@@CALVINLNIKONT Wow - you're a dang beast man. Can't believe you figured all of that out. And I agree - they have great blowers.
I would prefer the Ego,but I would buy the Ryobi because of the 2 4ah batteries... In a sense your saving a lot of money by not having to buy another battery which you always seem too need. But I really love the Ego line...
Both are good options, Ed! Thanks for the comment.
I have the ego and definitely hate their warranty I had it for 1 year and it just stopped working. Just bought the Ryobi and love the less noise
Wow - haven't heard of that happening before. Sorry to hear it!
I need a blower so bad for my lawn care, I like the blower Ryobi.
It is a really good one!
How can I get the blower for free Ryobi?
Unfortunately we already gave this one away!@@juanalbertogonzalezmartine2604
I would prefer the ego blower as it complements my ego multi-head unit and 18” chainsaw. Their tools and batteries have performed well for me and without issue for over two years.
How have you liked the Multi-Tool? Also, how do you store all the different heads?
@@TheLawnReview The multi-head system works very well! I have the string trimmer, edger, hedge trimmer and extension. I do not have a dedicated storage rack. However, the attachments are fairly compact and store easily.
@@deanmallory9734 sounds cool! Not sure I've seen the hedge trimmer part, but will look into it.
