EGO LB6703 vs Greenworks 80V 730 CFM Blower: 670 CFM EGO Against the Bigger Greenworks

Where these two differ

The EGO LB6703 is a 670 CFM blower on the broadest battery yard platform, lighter and with a five-year warranty. The Greenworks 80V 730 is a bigger 730 CFM blower that moves wet leaves, often for a little less money, on packs that run a strong Greenworks mower. The Greenworks does more; the EGO is lighter and belongs to the deeper system.

This comparison is based on the published specifications and manuals for both blowers and on recurring owner feedback. We have not run either blower ourselves.

Moving leaves

Dry and damp leaves on a lawn move for both. Wet matted leaves, gravel beds and the fence-line pile favor the Greenworks; the EGO takes extra passes.

Weight and handling

The EGO with a 4 Ah pack is moderate and manageable for an hour. The Greenworks is heavier and tires an arm sooner. Both balance well.

Batteries and runtime

Both kit packs last a normal yard on medium and drain fast on turbo. EGO 56V runs the broadest battery yard range; Greenworks 80V runs a mower, chainsaw, trimmer and snow blower.

Yard jobs this decides

An EGO yard with a normal lawn: the LB6703. Wet leaves, gravel or a Greenworks mower in the shed: the Greenworks. Starting fresh: the EGO for platform depth, the Greenworks for airflow per dollar.

Warranty and support

On the EGO Power+, EGO covers tools with a five-year limited warranty and packs with three years. On the Greenworks 80V, Greenworks covers 80V tools with four years and packs with two. Both makers run service networks in the US and both honor the warranty only with proof of purchase, so keep the receipt with the manual. Registration takes a few minutes online and is worth doing the day the tool arrives.

Care and storage

Both are brushless battery tools and both last longest with the same habits: hose or brush debris off after each use, store packs indoors at partial charge through the winter rather than empty or full, and keep the machine out of direct sun in a shed. Neither needs oil changes, spark plugs or fuel stabilizer. A pack left at zero through a cold winter is the most common cause of a dead tool in spring on either platform.

Accessories worth adding

A second pack is the accessory that changes ownership of either machine, because it turns a runtime limit into a swap. A spare blade or impeller cover, a mulch plug if one is not in the box and a rapid charger are the next three. Both makers sell these through the same outlets as the machine, and third-party packs are a false economy on either platform.

Common owner complaints

EGO owners mention wet leaves. Greenworks owners mention noise and weight. Both are reliable.

Which one should you buy

Buy the LB6703 for an EGO yard and a lighter blower. Buy the Greenworks 80V 730 for more airflow at a similar price.

Our verdict

A draw decided by platform. The Greenworks 80V 730 CFM edges it on airflow; the EGO LB6703 edges it on weight, warranty and platform.
