5 Alternatives to the EGO LB6504 Leaf Blower, Including Better Value Picks

If you want to stay in the EGO ecosystem but cut the cost, the EGO Power+ LB6150 is the most sensible alternative. It delivers 615 CFM versus the LB6504’s 650 CFM, so you give up a little airflow, but in real-world use that difference is modest for patios, paths, and medium-sized lawns. The big win is price: at £149, it’s dramatically cheaper. The downside is that battery and charger are not included, so it only makes sense if you already own EGO 56V batteries. Choose this if you want strong cordless performance without paying for another full kit.

The EGO Power+ LB7654 is the premium upgrade. At 765 CFM, it outguns the LB6504 and is better for large gardens, long driveways, wet leaf piles, and heavier debris after a storm. It also includes a 5.0Ah battery and charger, so it’s a true ready-to-go package. The trade-off is price: at £614.62, it costs even more than the main product. If you want maximum clearing power and already like EGO’s platform, this is the better blower; if you’re just tidying a typical UK suburban garden, it may be overkill.

The Stihl MS 170 is not a leaf blower at all, so it’s only an alternative if your real job is pruning or cutting back branches before leaf clearance. Its 30 cm guide bar and 1200 W output make it a compact entry-level chainsaw for light garden work. Compared with the LB6504, it’s far less relevant for blowing leaves, but better for cutting small logs, clearing storm damage, and general hedge-line maintenance. Choose this only if your search for a blower is really part of a broader garden-tool purchase.

The SEESII 6-inch mini chainsaw is a budget tool for light pruning. It’s much cheaper than the EGO blower and comes with two batteries, which is appealing for occasional trimming of small branches. However, it has no relation to leaf blowing performance, and its tiny cutting capacity limits it to very light-duty work. It’s best for gardeners who need an inexpensive helper for trimming shrubs, fruit trees, or small limbs before autumn cleanup.

The SEESII 8-inch mini cordless chainsaw is the more capable of the two budget saws. With a bigger bar, 900W motor, and twin batteries, it handles thicker branches more confidently than the 6-inch model. Still, it remains a pruning tool rather than a blower, so it won’t replace the LB6504 for clearing lawns, gravel drives, or wet leaves from borders. Pick this if your priority is cheap, portable branch cutting rather than leaf clearance.

Overall, the best true blower alternative is the LB6150 if you want value, or the LB7654 if you want more power. The other tools only make sense if your garden jobs extend beyond blowing leaves.
