CFM moves leaves, MPH lifts them · review
A 3.7-lb cordless sweeper for hard surfaces, with an 18,500-rating history. At 100 CFM, it clears steps rather than lawns.
The model name says sweeper and the bullet says hard surfaces. At 3.7 pounds, it is the kind of tool that stays by the garage door.
Its 100 CFM and 130 MPH are modest. The table’s 61 dB is one of the lowest here, but no measure is named.
Wear eye and hearing protection, and keep the air stream away from people and pets. Noise figures on listings do not always say whether they are sound power or sound pressure.
Same section, nearest cost — what else that money buys.

Black+Decker pitches it for hard surfaces such as driveways, decks and garages. For lawns, you will want far more than 100 CFM.
The listing says the battery holds a charge for up to 18 months in storage. It does not state a runtime.

The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
