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.

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.

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

I was looking for a lightweight blower for my deck. youtube.com/post/UgkxgioZQl3J5wPGAeDINzbieKbT5qomS… 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.

Thankyou for the Ego and Ryobi blower comparison’s, since I already have the Ego mower. I’ll vote for Ego!!

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.

I laughed way too hard on the spin test. Thanks for the comparison!

"As i get older i learn its not just about how hard something blows" Couldn't help but laugh😂

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.

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.

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!

OMG, the spin test was hilarious. Very thorough comparison. 👍👍

Great video! since I already have quite a few of the Ryobi 40v products, I'll vote for that one!

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.

Amazing review video! Probably one of the funniest I've ever seen. Well done sir!

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!

Ego👍👍👍 I just finished my lawn removing leaves 🍂 and can't say enough about how well it works 👌👌👌👌🌟

Ryobi is doing great! 2-3 years of having their tools and no issues so far!

As someone withouth a lawn nor leaves to blow. This video is 10/10
