Default Leaf blowers

Looking for a blower that I could use inside my lanai and birdcage area. Need something light weight and easy to use and is electric. Any suggestions?

Home Depot has Toro leaf blowers. Electric. You can see them online. I'm sure there are others as well.

I've had good luck with my Toro blower vac. It's one of the few garden tools I brought with us in the move. Some wet/dry shop vacs are made to lift the top motor unit off to use as a blower. The vac function could also be helpful in cleaning your lanai and birdcage. I think Craftsman at Sears has a model or two of these.

Some leaf blowers have a vacuum function. Maybe an option for you. Not sure if electric ones have the torque necessary to mulch what you'd be vacuuming but worth checking on.

I have the Worx 20 volt rechargeable blower. I love it, not too powerful but does a great job inside my lanai as well as my driveway and walks. Runs about 20 minutes on one charge with no cords to mess with. I didn't get the vacuum version, too big.
