Description
Unusual design, unusually-good results. The in-line motor provides the power of a larger leaf blower while allowing the tool to remain compact. The Variable Air Control Nozzle lets you choose between more air volume, or more airspeed.
Zoom on the Worx WG543
With its cordless handheld design, the Worx WG543 is appropriate for homeowners with an average-sized yard that requires regular upkeep, generally around a quarter to half an acre.
It features a maximum air speed of 125 MPH and a maximum air volume rating of 400 cubic feet per minute (CFM). 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.
A 20V brushless motor powers the WG543, which operates fully cordless for versatile handling. It is supplied with a 4.0Ah battery which can offer up to 30 minutes of runtime per charge.
With its 2 speed settings, the WG543 ensures adaptable airflow output, catering to varying needs with ease.
With a bare tool weight of 2.3 lbs and 3.8 lbs when fully equipped, this handheld unit supports one-handed use in tight areas.

The Worx WG543's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Worx WG543 compare with handheld leaf blowers of similar voltage (between 18 and 24V).
- The Worx WG543 weighs 2.3 lbs (bare tool), which is the lightest bare tool weight found among cordless handheld blowers in the 18 to 24V range.
- It can push air from the nozzle at 125 MPH, which puts it ahead of its class in terms of air speed for 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.
- Regarding its air volume, the Worx WG543 boasts an impressive airflow that can reach 400 CFM (Cubic Foot per Minute). This places it amongst the most powerful cordless handheld blowers with a comparable voltage. If air volume is important to you, the Dewalt DCBL724W1, with 550 CFM, could be in your good books.
- Its battery is standard in terms of autonomy for a cordless handheld product that runs on this kind of voltage. Fully charged, it should run for up to 30 minutes. If autonomy is an important factor for you, the Ryobi PBLLB01K can run for up to 60 minutes and could be worth considering.
- 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. The Worx WG543 delivers a typical level of runtime efficiency, offering a balanced amount of operation time per unit of battery capacity. If runtime efficiency matters most to you, you might look at the Sun Joe 24V-JB-LTE, which delivers a higher runtime efficiency of 1.04 minutes per Wh.
