Zoom on the Craftsman B215
The Craftsman B215
With its gas handheld design, the Craftsman B215 is a good match for homeowners with a patio or small yard that does not require frequent or large-scale cleanup.
Its maximum output is 430 CFM of air volume and 200 MPH of air speed. This balance means it can handle smaller piles of leaves efficiently across yard sections, patios, or garden paths.
A 25-cc 2-stroke engine powers the B215, which needs a 40:1 fuel-to-oil mixture. Its tank capacity of 14 fl. oz. is within the usual range for handheld gas blowers.
Users can fine-tune airflow with the variable speed settings of the B215, complemented by intuitive cruise control for effortless use.
Weighing 10 lbs (dry), the handheld design allows the operator to control airflow with one hand.

The Craftsman B215's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Craftsman B215 compare with similar leaf blowers.
- The Craftsman B215 tips the scales at 10 lbs, a weight that's typical for many gas-powered handheld blowers. Should weight be a deciding factor, the Stihl BG 50 is worth a look at just 7.9 lbs.
- Forced air exiting this blower has been clocked at a max speed of 200 MPH. This puts the B215 ahead of the pack as far as air speed is concerned in gas-powered handheld blowers. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Poulan Pro PPBV25 and its 230 MPH could be an option to consider.
- The B215 is average in terms of air volume. It's rated at 430 CFM, which is common for gas-powered handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Ryobi JET FAN RY25AXB, with 520 CFM, could be in your good books.
The bottom line

- High MPH (200 MPH)
- Decent tank (14 fl. oz.)
- Decent weight (10 lbs)
- Decent CFM (430 CFM)

About Craftsman
Craftsman is a label which traces its roots to 1927, when it was first registered by the Sears department store. The brand has been only recently acquired by Stanley Black & Decker. Their products seem to be assembled in the US, from materials that are sourced abroad. Their selection features a wide range of lawn keeping equipment, including several leaf blowers. Little by little, Craftsman are diversifying their leaf blower offers. Craftsman blowers used to be exclusively handheld and electrically powered, but we now see backpack and gas-powered models. Both their price and specs range from the lower to middle tier.

The Craftsman B215 is covered under a warranty for up to 2 years. This warranty may not cover all parts of the blower.
