Zoom on the Black+Decker LSW321
With its cordless handheld design, the Black+Decker LSW321 is best suited to homeowners with a small outdoor space such as a patio, driveway, or yard under about a quarter acre.
It is rated for a maximum air volume of 100 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a maximum air speed of 130 miles per hour (MPH). This balance means the blower is suitable for light clearing across small yards, patios, driveways, or garden paths.
The LSW321 is equipped with a 20V brushed motor and runs on battery power, enabling mobility without a cord. One 2.0Ah battery is included, and should provide up to 25 minutes of runtime when fully charged.
This unit is a one-speed leaf blower, which means that it's either turned on or turned off.
With a bare tool weight of 2.8 lbs and 3.7 lbs when fully equipped, this handheld unit supports one-handed use in tight areas.

The Black+Decker LSW321's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Black+Decker LSW321 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 18 and 24V).
- Weighing only 2.8 lbs as a bare tool, the Black+Decker LSW321 is on the lighter side compared with many cordless handheld blowers in the 18 to 24V range. Should weight be a deciding factor, the Worx WG543 is worth a look at just 2.3 lbs the bare tool.
- Upon exiting the nozzle, the air can reach speeds of up to 130 MPH, which is rather impressive for a battery-operated handheld blower between 18 and 24V. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Makita XBU07SM1 and its 143 MPH could be an option to consider.
- The Black+Decker LSW321 delivers air at a rate of 100 CFM (cubic feet per minute), placing it towards the bottom of the range for cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. For the highest air volume, you may want to have a look at the Dewalt DCBL724W1, which boasts with 550 CFM.
- Within the voltage range of 18V to 24V, the LSW321 falls within the typical autonomy range for cordless handheld units, delivering up to 25 minutes of operation on a full charge. If autonomy is an important factor for you, the Ryobi PBLLB01K can run for up to 60 minutes and could be worth considering.
- Among the compared to battery-powered handheld blowers, the Black+Decker LSW321 delivers a notably efficient use of battery power. If runtime efficiency matters most to you, you might look at the Sun Joe 24V-JB-LTE, which delivers a higher runtime efficiency of 1.04 minutes per Wh.
Here's a list of the most popular specific comparisons:
Price comparison
As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other 18-24V cordless blowers, the Black+Decker LSW321 is on the cheap side of the price range.
It can therefore be a really good buy if you're looking to acquire a budget blower.
POWERBOOST Technology
POWERBOOST is one of the features of the POWERCOMMAND™ line of Black+Decker outdoor power tools. The Black+Decker LSW321 has a button that gives it a surge in blowing speed when pressed. Although POWERBOOST uses a lot of power (which drains the battery faster) , it is quite useful for loosening up those stubborn patches of debris that get stuck and otherwise refuse to budge. When POWERBOOST is used sparingly, the LSW321 enjoys a normal runtime, so this feature is definitely ideal for tackling less rigorous tasks with more precise control.
The bottom line
- Inexpensive
- Light bare tool weight (2.8 lbs)
- High MPH (130 MPH)
- Excellent power efficiency
- Good autonomy (25 mins)
- Brushed motor
- No speed variation
- Low CFM (100 CFM)
