I use things that work (even if you find them loud or annoying) because typically over engineered things (like the 'quiet' leafblower) are most likely very problematic and will fail. I just do not trust anything new anymore. Companies did this and forced me to stop caring about 'innovation' with their constant lies and fraud.
Edit downvotes clearly from people who are pissed they have to replace their expensive appliances every 5-7 years because 'innovation'
Blowing leaves around instead of removing it, isn't ideal then.
Leafblowers are used to collect it into a pile which is then raked/shoveled into a bin. The blower is much faster and less effort than the rake at collecting everything into the pile.
No, that's what a rake does.
