Description

The all-new Weed Eater WE12B electric leaf blower is compact, super-lightweight, easy to start, and easy to use, with simple, intuitive controls. With a 12 amp motor, it's perfect for clean-up of medium- to larger-sized yards, plus driveways, sidewalks, porches, and decks. With 360 CFM of blowing force and 200 MPH air speed, there's plenty of power to blow away grass, leaves, and other stubborn debris. It powers up instantly with the simple press of a button, with no pull cords, gas, oil, or fumes; and it's vacuum-capable, should you choose to remove debris rather than blowing it into a pile or out of sight. Plus, it has a nifty built-in cord retainer for simple, hassle-free storage. (source: Weed Eater)

Overview of the Weed Eater WE12B

The Weed Eater WE12B

Power: The Weed Eater WE12B can force 360 cubic feet of air per minute (CFM) from its nozzle at a maximum speed of 200 MPH.
Power delivery: Being that it is a corded blower with a 12 Amp motor, the WE12B requires a steady power source and must be plugged in when using it. Please note that some manufacturers don’t include the cord with the unit. If this is the case, or if you’re looking to buy a backup, please use our gauge calculator to ensure you’re buying the right cord for your blower.
Cord Lock Mechanism: Anyone who has experienced the frustration of having their blower suddenly stop from being accidentally unplugged will be glad to know that the WE12B has a 'cord lock' mechanism.
Handling: It’s handheld, so naturally it’s easier to handle and carry than larger leaf blowers, such as backpack models or walk-behinds. Be aware that, at 8.2 lbs, the Weed Eater WE12B is on the heavier side for electric handheld blowers.
Speed Settings: The Weed Eater WE12B does not have multiple speed settings. Once the blower is turned on, it always operates at the same speed.
Vacuum: For those who really want to make leaves disappear, the WE12B has a handy 'blower vac' feature (the keyword here being 'vac', aka 'vacuum'). It allows the operator to collect light debris in a collection bag to be easily discarded after the job is finished.

About Weed Eater

Weed Eater is a notorious power tool company with a complicated history, most well known for its green string trimmers. The company was founded in Texas, US, back in 1971 and over the years, exchanged owners several times, notably Emerson Electric, who merged them with Poulan, and Electrolux, who transferred the outdoor division under Husqvarna AB. However, green Weed Eater products can be found to this day in North America, including a strong line of mostly electric leaf blowers. Their products are unmistakable, as they feature a unique, green, alien-like design.

Warranty Information
