Why Amazon Shows Different CFM

The Amazon title for the 350BT lists 692 CFM. Husqvarna's spec pages give airflow measured at the nozzle (494 CFM for the 350BT), which is the figure we compare here. When you compare blowers, compare the same kind of number across models - our CFM vs MPH explainer covers the difference.

Which One?

350BT if you want a bit more air volume for moving large piles of dry leaves. 150BT if you want faster air and a touch more blow force for wet, matted leaves at nearly the same weight. 360BT if you want noticeably more force and airflow and don't mind a larger engine. In California, most newly manufactured small off-road engines must be zero-emission, per CARB, so check availability there.

Common Questions

Is a battery blower an option?

Bottom Line

For most yards, either works: the 350BT for airflow, the 150BT for air speed. Step up to the 360BT for more force. See also our backpack blower guide and gas blower guide.
