Great unit! Works very well.
I purchased this attachment a few months ago and wanted to wait to write the review. Overall I think the unit is an excellent choice. It has a good deal of volume produced to be able to clean the yard. It is very powerful and easy to use and control.
If I were to say anything negative about the unit it would be that:
- It is very heavy when using but this is not due to the blower attachment, it is due to the weight of the battery.
- This attachment drains the battery quite effectively. You still get a good amount of time out of the battery but the blower drains the battery much faster than my mower.
Overall, this is a really fine unit and I'm very happy that I chose it. It gets a great deal of use all around the house, including for clearing debris from my pool cover.

Easy to assemble
I use my blower attachment often. In the garage, on the patio, and sidewalks. A little awkward to hold at first, but it’s a quality tool. I’m happy with it mostly because I’ll never have to yank on a string to start it up. My garage is filling up with Greenworks tools!

To follow up on Matthew T's question, which of the blowers is going to put less weight on my back. Most blowers you would be able to hold near the center of gravity, but this one has to be held at the switch end, thus blower weight is not counterbalanced.
Hello Russell,
The Jett blower is slightly heavier than the radial blower but the jet blower is easier to maneuver due to its shape.

I'm trying decide between the 2 blower attachments available. Can you explain why I would want the jet blower vs the horizontal blower and vice versa? Thank you.
Hello Matthew,
Jet (axial) blower provides more CFM
Horizontal (radial) blower provides more windspeed.
CFM has more to do with power than speed. MPH it refers to how quickly the air is moving when it comes out of the nozzle. Fast moving air tends to be stronger than slow moving air of the same volume but higher volumes of air (CFM) are more powerful in general (so if you find a 150mph 500 CFM unit, it will be more powerful than a 135mph 500 CFM unit but weaker than a 150mph 600 CFM unit).
A higher CFM rating typically comes from a larger, heavier, more powerful motor. You end up with a (in this case slightly) heavier leaf blower, but it moves your leaves faster.
Therefore, if for a small amount of work (possibly in tight or awkward areas to reach) horizontal will be fine.
For moderate amount of work, in open spaces, jet is better.

Will this work on any trimmer or only for the Greenworks trimmer?
Hello LukeF64,
This is designed for GreenWorks attachment capable string trimmer units. It may work for other units,however, it was not tested nor verified for other brands.

What is the MPH of the air from the ABA51 Blower Attachment with the 80v powerhead? (NOT asking for the CFM rating)

I have a Troy Built TB490BC Will the leaf blower attachment ABA51 fit?
Hello Tombstone,
We are not familiar with the tool you've mentioned. This attachment is specifically designed for GreenWorks top mount string trimmers.

What is the air speed this produces with a 60v or 80v battery?
Hello Timoteo,
Thank you for your question. The unit produces up to 500 CFM (80V). For 60V is approximately 400-450 CFM for 60V, and 340-400CFM for 40V. We this information has helped.

Will this blower attachment still achieve 500 cfm on a 40v trimmer shaft?
Hello Garrin,
It would reach 500 CFM with an 80v battery and around 360-400 CFM with a 40v battery.
