Milwaukee Leaf Blowers in 2026: M18 FUEL Models Compared, and What to Know Before Buying on Amazon

Milwaukee builds its blowers on M18, the same 18V battery system as its drills and saws. For its higher-output models, it uses two M18 batteries at once. If you don't own any Milwaukee tools, a yard-focused brand is usually the simpler buy - see our EGO and Ryobi guides.

Milwaukee M18 Blowers, Side by Side

All figures per Milwaukee's product pages. Milwaukee lists the 2724's rating with an M18 HIGH OUTPUT XC8.0 battery.

The Models

M18 FUEL 2724 (Kit 2724-21HD or Tool-Only 2724-20)

Per Milwaukee, the 2724 delivers 450 CFM and 120 MPH with an M18 HIGH OUTPUT XC8.0 battery, has a variable-speed trigger with high and low speed settings, weighs 4.9 lb, and is rated at 62 dB. The 2724-21HD kit comes with the XC8.0 battery and a Rapid Charger; the 2724-20 is the bare tool. Both were on Amazon from third-party sellers. If you own M18 tools with smaller batteries, the kit adds a larger pack; if you already have big M18 packs, the tool-only is enough.

M18 FUEL 3017-20 - Newer Single-Battery Model

Per Milwaukee, the 3017-20 is rated at 500 CFM and 120 MPH with 12.2 N of blow force on one M18 battery, at 54 dB. We don't link an Amazon listing for it; buy it from a Milwaukee retailer and watch for look-alikes using the model number.

M18 FUEL Dual Battery 2824-20

Per Milwaukee, the 2824-20 runs on two M18 batteries and is rated at 600 CFM, 145 MPH, and 17.7 N, at 6.01 lb and 64 dB, with a 3-year limited warranty. It wasn't available as a normal Amazon offer when we checked, so we don't link it. Milwaukee's where-to-buy page lists retailers.

M18 FUEL Dual Battery Backpack 3009

Per Milwaukee, the 3009-20 backpack is rated at 650 CFM, 155 MPH, and 20.5 N, at 62 dB. The 3009-20 is the tool-only version; Milwaukee also lists a 3009-24HD kit. Milwaukee's page lists a 3-year warranty on tool and battery. We don't link an Amazon listing for it.

M18 Compact Blower 0884-20 - For the Shop, Not the Lawn

Per Milwaukee, the 0884-20 moves 100 CFM at 160 MPH, has a 3-speed switch, lock-on, and variable-speed trigger, and comes with a 9-inch extension nozzle and a universal inflator/deflator. Milwaukee describes it as a jobsite cleanup tool; at 100 CFM it's for dust, sawdust, and workbench debris rather than leaves. Milwaukee still lists it on its site with a 5-year limited warranty, and its product page shows no discontinued date. The Amazon listing was from a third-party seller.

Who Should Buy Milwaukee

Common Questions

Do Milwaukee blowers use the same batteries as Milwaukee drills?

Yes. Milwaukee lists the 2724 as compatible with all M18 batteries, the same system as its M18 drills and saws. Milwaukee's 450 CFM rating for the 2724 is with an XC8.0 HIGH OUTPUT battery.

Why were the Milwaukee blowers on Amazon from third-party sellers?

That's what we found on September 30, 2026: the 2724-21HD, 2724-20, and 0884-20 listings were all from third-party sellers, and the 2824-20 had no normal offer. Milwaukee's where-to-buy page lists its retailers.

Is the Milwaukee 0884-20 discontinued?

Not as of September 30, 2026: Milwaukee still has a live product page for the 0884-20, and unlike some older blowers on its site, it shows no discontinued date.

How loud are Milwaukee blowers?

Milwaukee lists 54 dB for the 3017-20, 62 dB for the 2724 and 3009, and 64 dB for the 2824-20.

What's the difference between M18 FUEL and plain M18?

FUEL is Milwaukee's brushless line. The 2724, 3017, 2824, and 3009 are all M18 FUEL; the 0884-20 compact is plain M18.

Bottom Line

If you own M18 tools, the 2724-20 tool-only or 2724-21HD kit is the Milwaukee blower you can get on Amazon - from a third-party seller, so check who is selling it. For more air, get the 2824-20 or 3009 backpack from a Milwaukee retailer. Buy the 0884-20 for shop cleanup, not leaves. If you don't own Milwaukee batteries, start with our leaf blower roundup.
