What Real Buyers Are Saying
What buyers love
"Home Depot had a demo model charged up in the store, one try down the aisle, and I was sold. Still can't get over how much more powerful this blower is than my old GBI 22."

Common complaints
60V FLEXVOLT battery is expensive — ecosystem entry cost is high
The 60V FLEXVOLT battery costs $150–250 CAD alone; buyers who want the DCBL772 without existing FLEXVOLT tools face a significant initial investment before the blower's performance advantage is realized.

Heavy for a cordless blower — FLEXVOLT battery adds substantial weight
The 60V battery's energy density comes with weight; the DCBL772 with a 6Ah battery is among the heavier cordless blowers; extended use by users with smaller frames or shoulder issues causes fatigue.

Turbo mode has a very short run time
Maximum CFM mode drains the FLEXVOLT battery in 15–20 minutes; large properties require eco mode for coverage, with high mode reserved for stubborn piles; the power-versus-runtime trade-off is steeper than EGO's 56V system at similar price.
