Description
This blower is loaded with premium features like a variable speed trigger to blow in more delicate areas, cruise control to reduce fatigue during extended use, a turbo button for maximum power, and a speed tip attachment to increase your air speed for heavier debris.
Zoom on the Ryobi P21014
The Ryobi P21014 is a cordless handheld blower that is appropriate for homeowners with a small outdoor space such as a patio, driveway, or yard under about a quarter acre.
It provides a maximum air volume rating of 450 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of up to 130 miles per hour (MPH). These values mean that it should manage everyday yard leaves rather efficiently, but also have the power to handle denser material or small piles of heavier debris across lawns, patios, and garden paths.
This model comes with an 18V brushless motor, designed for cordless use and easy maneuvering. This is a bare tool configuration, which means it is supplied without batteries. Its operation needs an 18V ONE+ battery. With the PBP005 battery, Ryobi says the blower should operate for up to 16 minutes on a full charge.
Users can fine-tune airflow with the variable speed settings of the P21014, complemented by intuitive cruise control for effortless use.
This cordless handheld blower weighs 5.4 lbs and can be steered with one hand for focused leaf and debris removal. When using a PBP005 battery, the total weight of the blower reaches around 8.9 lbs.

The Ryobi P21014's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Ryobi P21014 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 18 and 24V).
- Compared to its counterparts, the Ryobi P21014 has a fairly standard weight for a cordless handheld blower in the 18 to 24V range at 5.4 lbs. Should weight be a deciding factor, the Worx WG543 is worth a look at just 2.3 lbs the bare tool.
- Air exiting this blower's nozzle can reach speeds of 130 MPH, marking it as considerably swifter than most battery-operated handheld blowers 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.
- Ryobi P21014 boasts an impressive airflow, reaching 450 CFM (Cubic Foot per Minute), positioning it amongst the most powerful cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. If air volume is important to you, the Ryobi PBLLB01K, with 510 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Autonomy-wise, with up to 16 minutes of autonomy on a full charge, the P21014 is on the low end when compared with other cordless handheld units of similar voltage. To enjoy the best possible autonomy in this category, you could have a look at the Ryobi PBLLB01K which offers up to 60 minutes of runtime.
- Because larger batteries naturally increase runtime, it can be helpful to consider runtime efficiency, a measure of how effectively a blower uses the energy available. In terms of runtime efficiency, the Ryobi P21014 ranks on the lower side, delivering less runtime per unit of battery capacity than many comparable battery-powered handheld blowers. If you are focused on getting more use per charge, the Ryobi ONE+ SWEEPER P2102 offers the highest runtime efficiency, at 1.28 minutes per Wh.
Price comparison
As you can see from these interactive charts, when compared to other 18-24V cordless blowers, the Ryobi P21014 is on the average side of the price range.
Therefore, this blower nicely fits in the expected budget for this kind of product.
