Review – When I moved into my new home for the first time, it was in the middle of winter, and the 4 big trees in the backyard were full of tons of fallen leaves. When spring came, the snow melted, and I realized that there were too many items on my plate to raking out overwhelming leaves. So, I hired a guy to clean the yard. Although he did a good job, I felt it was a waste of money, because if I use the right tools, I can finish the job and save myself hundreds of dollars. Enter WORX 40V Power Share cordless blower/Mulcher/Vac.
What is it?

The tool is mainly made of plastic/ABS. It has two battery compartments behind the handle. There is an ECO button on the top of the handle, and a power/throttle lever under the handle. At the other end of the blower, there is a spring clamp button for fixing the blower tube. There is a detachable vent below that covers the covering mechanism. At the end of the vacuum tube, there are wheels that allow you to roll the tool while vacuuming.
Performance
WORX 40V Power Share Cordless Blower/Mulcher/Vac can be simply snapped together for blowing leaves or vacuuming and covering leaves. It is strong enough to even cover branches.
This tool is about its ability to blow, suck and cover. The video below shows the tool blowing a lot of leaves on my property. It can be said to be the most powerful blower I have ever reviewed:
Next, I set it to vacuum/cover mode by simply disconnecting the blower tube and connecting the vacuum bag to the same location. Then I removed the vent cap from under it and snapped it into the vacuum tube.
Then, it was time to vacuum the pile of leaves I was blowing together:
WORX 40V Power Share cordless blower/Mulcher/Vac can suck up and cover leaves well. My pile of things is much bigger than it looks in the photo), after about 30 minutes, my battery ran out. So the only thing you need to pay attention to is if you need to cover a lot of leaves. I had to scoop up the remaining leaves and put them in a bag because it was windy and waiting for the battery to charge was not an option.
This is what the covering looks like:
what do I like
- Build quality
- The design
- Power of blower
- Vacuum suction
- The performance of the covering machine
- Easy to use vacuum/roller wheels
- Cover bag included
- Multi-tool convenience
What will i change
- Except that I can’t seem to find a comfortable way to fix the straps of the mulch bag, I really can’t think of anything at this time.
Final thoughts
I really like WORX 40V Power Share Cordless Blower/Mulcher/Vac. As a blower, it is very powerful, as a vacuum/mulcher, it does a great job. If you don’t pile up your leaves like I did, then you can use it quickly and easily, and you may only need 2 batteries to get the job done. If you let it pile up like me, then you will need a lot of patience or multiple batteries. Anyway, this is a great tool, I gave it a good job and gave it two thumbs up! !
