Zoom on the Worx TriVac WG509
With its corded electric handheld design, the Worx TriVac WG509 is a good match for homeowners with a patio or small yard that does not require frequent or large-scale cleanup.
It provides a maximum air volume rating of 350 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and an air speed of up to 210 miles per hour (MPH). For the user, it can shift leaves and debris efficiently on yard sections while providing enough speed for slightly heavier material.
Powered by a 12-amp motor, the blower delivers constant runtime, although the cord limits the extent of movement. Note that some manufacturers don't include the cord with the unit. If that's the case, or if you're looking to buy a backup, use our gauge calculator to ensure you get the right cord. To reduce the risk of accidental unplugging during use, the blower features an integrated cord lock.
Thanks to its 6 speed settings, the Worx TriVac WG509 allows the user to adjust the air output to the task in hand.
With a weight of 9.3 lbs, this handheld unit enables one-handed use in tighter areas.
With its versatile design, the TriVac WG509 can transition from blower to vacuum, letting you tidy up leaves efficiently (11.2 gallon bag included). While vacuuming, the mulching ratio of 18:1 enables the unit to transform 18 bags of waste into one bag of mulch. The unit uses a metal impeller.
