  • Power: The Sun Joe SBJ605E is an electric blower with a maximum air volume rating of 440 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of 250 MPH.

    The Sun Joe SBJ605E features a 14-amp motor, which works on 120V

    For this unit and this selected length, you should choose an extension cord with an AWG rating of

  • Cord Lock Mechanism: This unit has a handy 'cord lock' feature, which prevents it from being unplugged during use.
  • Handling: Being handheld, this blower has a good maneuverability and is meant to be easier to carry around over a small period of time. When compared to other electric handheld blowers, the Sun Joe SBJ605E stands out due to its lower weight: just 6.6 lbs.
  • Speed Settings: Not all jobs need full power. The SBJ605E has 6 speed settings so, you can blow more or less air from the blower depending on the job.
  • Vacuum: The SBJ605E is also what is known as a 'blower vac'. Those who don’t wish to blow leaves and debris away can switch to its vacuum setting and suck them into a collection bag (18 gallon bag included).
  • Mulching: The manufacturer’s specifications give it a mulching ratio of 16:1. For every 16 bags you put in, it will reduce down to just one bag of mulch.
  • Noise: Note that this blower is somewhat on the noisy end of electric handheld blowers, as its engine can reach an operating noise level of around 96 dB.
