Top 10 Algae Scrapers

10. Toro Ultra

In addition to its large metal impeller and a top air speed of 250 miles per hour that can disperse sticks and larger debris, the versatile Toro Ultra (around $69) also features a quick-release latch that allows for seamless conversion to a vacuum and leaf shredder.

9. GreenWorks GMax

The variable speed dial built into the GreenWorks GMax (around $116) provides 6 settings, giving you precise control over its motor output. Furthermore, the high-performance battery delivers continuous, fade-free power for up to 35 minutes.

8. Black & Decker Sweeper

The Black & Decker Sweeper (around $117) uses a 40-volt lithium-ion rechargeable battery to keep you moving around a property without gas or extension cords. Its blow tube has a built-in scraper for loosening matted leaves and stuck-on debris from hard surfaces.

7. Worx WG520

The Worx WG520 (around $47) boasts patented turbine jet engine fan technology as well as a hyper-stream nozzle attachment, both of which work together to produce a powerful and concentrated airflow at nearly double the amount of force of its gas-powered competition.

6. Sun Joe SBJ597E

Quickly clear debris from any small deck, driveway, or patio using the Sun Joe SBJ597E (around $19). The 4-amp motor packs just the right amount of power needed to handle most light-duty cleanup jobs, while the removable chute allows it to be taken apart easily for compact storage.

5. Poulan Pro Backpack

Whether you need to remove leaves from a single property or you’re servicing multiple homes throughout the day, the variable speed throttle and adjustable shoulder straps on the Poulan Pro Backpack (about $193) will help you get the job done with minimal fatigue.

Engineered for comfort, convenience, and durability, the Makita BHX2500CA (around $219) is equipped with a soft hand grip for absorbing vibrations, an easy-access spark plug for quick maintenance, and a replaceable 2-stage filter for optimal operating efficiency at all times.

3. Hitachi RB24EAP

Capable of moving 441 cubic feet of air per minute, the Hitachi RB24EAP (around $123) utilizes an extremely low-emission 2-stroke engine that serves to reduce its environmental impact and improve safety during extended yard work. A 7-year consumer warranty is included.

2. Husqvarna 350BT

The Husqvarna 350BT (about $300) sports a “proton pack” Ghostbusters look, and its X-Torq engine delivers 7,500 revolutions per minute, which is enough to generate wind speeds of 180 miles per hour for fast cleanups on both small and large properties.

1. DeWalt XR

Ideal for heavy-duty professional use, the DeWalt XR (appx. $186) leverages a powerful axial fan that helps to maximize its overall runtime and air output volume. Weighing slightly over 7 pounds, its lightweight and ergonomic design makes it super easy to control.
