In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it’s easy to overlook the wonders of nature that surround us. Fallen leaves, for example, might seem like nothing more than a nuisance, cluttering up our gardens, but it’s time to recognize the value of leaves – they are gold!

Instead of haphazardly discarding those fallen leaves, put them to good use by using them as a mulch, on the compost heap or by making leaf mould for your garden. Enter the GE CL 36 Li Leaf Blower and Vacuum combo from Einhell, a game-changer that operates on the Power X-Change platform, now available at Builders.

This versatile combo tool is designed to make leaf management a breeze, literally. The lower tube allows you to blow leaves forward effortlessly, gathering them efficiently in one place. When it’s time to bag up those leaves, switch the machine into a powerful vacuum by turning the function dial.

With a blowing speed of up to 210 km/h and a suction capability of 720 m³ per hour, the blower/vacuum will have no trouble getting the job done quickly.

Practicality and ease of use were clearly on the minds of the Einhell designers. The GE CL 36 boasts rubberised handles, provides a comfortable grip during operation and one of the handles is adjustable to be suitable for users of different heights. To lighten the load, a shoulder strap is included, relieving the strain on your hands as you work. Wheels at the front enable smooth and effortless manoeuvrability, keeping things well-balanced and user-friendly.

Controlling the speed of the blower vacuum is a cinch with the easily accessible dial. Whether you need maximum power to tackle a heavy load or a gentle breeze to handle lighter tasks, this blower vacuum offers the flexibility to adjust to your needs. It’s built to last too, with a low-maintenance brushless motor.

The Einhell cordless leaf blower forms part of the Power X-Change Platform, which means that it uses the universal 18 V battery and charger, although since it is a 36 V tool it needs two 18 V Power X-Change batteries. You can choose from a range of battery options, such as 2.0, 2.5, 4.0 or 5.2 Ah, or the adjustable 5 – 8 Amp hour battery, for longer operating time.

Builders stocks the full range of Einhell battery-powered gardening tools, both in-store as well as online at builders.co.za.
