  • Overall Rating 9.4

The EGO 575 CFM blower gets it right with an outstanding balance of power, runtime, weight, and price.

Overall Score 9.4 (out of 10)

Editorโ€™s Note: This blower has been discontinued.

In our cordless blower shootout, none of the participants could produce as much power as the EGO 575 CFM Blower. Pushing our meter to 16 Newton metersย of force is impressive in this class. But Outdoor Power Equipment Reviewsโ€™ backpack blower shootout shows just how far battery power still needs to go before it can reach the 35+ Newtonsย those models are capable of.

Thereโ€™s a lot to love about this model from EGO, but thereโ€™s some question as to where it fits. With most of EGOโ€™s lineup, weโ€™re used to performance near or at the top of the line and a near steal of a price point. But thatโ€™s not the case here. At $349, this is one of the more expensive cordless blowers you can buy, though it does come with a 5.0 AH battery.

It almost seems to be a concept type of design. Moving up in power from the shootout-winningย EGO 530 CFM model comes with a premium price tag. We can only conclude that the motor required to produce that kind of power simply isnโ€™t in the price range of EGOโ€™s other products. And thatโ€™s okay. We love seeing manufacturers push the boundaries and experiment with whatโ€™s possible. The cool thing is that, even at the higher price point, this blower has the most power available in a cordless handheld blower. And itโ€™s not just a theoretical engineering sample โ€“ you can go out and buy it if you want.

Hereโ€™s a list of the pros and cons we found during the course of our shootout. To get the complete picture of the EGO 575 CFM Blower, head over to Outdoor Power Equipment Reviews to see what they have to say.
