Description

With lower noise and zero emissions, the 18V LXT® Brushless Blower / Vacuum Mulcher Kit (XBU07Z, Tool Only) is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. The commercial design allows the blower to tackle demanding applications, comparable to gas blowers. The Brushless Blower / Vacuum Mulcher easily converts from blower to vacuum and mulcher. The Makita-built brushless motor delivers speeds up to 143 MPH and up to 148 CFM. The brushless motor delivers up to 215 CFM and 13" water lift of suction power. Makita’s efficient Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. Makita’s Brushless Motors run cooler and more efficiently for longer life. The Brushless Blower / Vacuum Mulcher features a cruise control lever providing management of power and run time. The power switch can be locked-on for continuous operation. It features a durable metal impeller shredding blade that cuts leaves into fine mulch. The XBU07Z features a sound pressure rating of only 62 dB(A); measured per ANSI B 175.2 standard. The collection bag holds up to 6.6 gallons of leaves. The precision suction power aids in fallen leaf cleanup without altering stone and rock settings in plant beds. It also features removable wheels for better maneuverability in a variety of terrain. The XBU07Z features Makita® Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

  • Effective and well designed
I bought this leaf vacuum and blower to use with my existing Makita 18 volt batteries. I've used the product several times now to help manage leaves and am very happy with the unit. It seems well designed. The fabric bag is made of sturdy cloth with a good zipper that allows the bag to be opened widely when dumping out leaves. The unit does indeed mulch up the leaves into a small size. When sucking up leaves constantly, I am able to get about 13 minutes of run time on high speed with a 6 amp battery. If I kept the speed down lower or was sucking up fewer leaves, it would run longer. You would not want to use this with a 2 or 3 amp battery, it would run out of power too quickly. I have plenty of batteries so am satisfied with that amount of run-time. I can generally fill up the leaf back in that amount of time so am ready to stop, dump the leaves out of the bag, and swap out batteries. The suction power is strong, I've used it to pick up a variety of leaves, it will even suck in leaves larger than the opening of the suction tube. You do need to be careful around mulch or rocks, it will suck up pieces of mulch or small rocks and it really makes a racket when it does so. A bigger piece could cause some damage, although mine has survived several smaller pieces of mulch without issue and a few pebbles. I wasn't too sure about the wheels on it, but they are helpful at times, mainly when pushing and pulling the unit straight back and forth like vacuuming a carpet. However, I'm often wandering around to pick up individual leaves in a non-straight line and thus holding the wheels off the ground. I would have liked to have an attachment nozzle that turned the round end of the tube into more of a typical wide vacuum nozzle, that would be handy when pushing it back and forth like a vacuum cleaner, but when going side to side, I could see that type of nozzle shape getting caught on the grass, so maybe that's why they don't provide it. The noise level on the unit is not bad, about like running my other Makita leaf blower on level 3 when running full power. You can run it at lower speeds but it won't pull up some leaves, and I generally lock the throttle speed to a higher setting. It's nice you don't have to hold the trigger constantly. It's very easy to move the lever and switch the unit from sucking to blowing. As a leaf blower, the unit is adequate but not as good as their dedicated 18v leaf blower, which I've had for a couple of years. The regular leaf blower has more power (two batteries vs one) and a wider range of air speeds,. It's also a little more ergonomic for leaf blowing, whereas this unit is designed more for suction so it's a bit heavier and not as easy to sweep it around for blowing. Fine for occasional blowing use, though. I blow leaves off my patio and then switch to the suction mode to gather them up. The leaf bag is easy to put on and take off, and overall the unit is very easy to use. The weight is reasonable. I definitely recommend this unit. ... show more

  • Pleasantly surprised with how great this leaf vacuum works!
Great product! Looks to be constructed well and both the blower and vacuum works great! Suction is not crazy strong so it is easy to avoid picking up mulch when vacuuming out flower beds. Leaves are shredded into very small pieces allowing quite a bit to be held in the attached bag. Only reason I did not give 5 stars is the battery life. Batteries do not last very long (about 12 min) when running continuously. This is not a tool for long / extended use but it is perfect for leaf vacuuming or blowing small areas around your yard. ... show more

  • Well designed tool
Quality yard vacuum for picking up plant debris on walkways. Wheels help when the bag gets full and heavy. No problems mulching leaves provided there are not too many. Runs through 6 AH batteries rather quickly. Collection bag is very easy to remove and empty. Convenient switching from vacuum to blower mode as needed. I use this mostly as a vacuum and prefer my other (lighter) blower for large cleanups. ... show more

  • Pretty awesome so far
I suppose it depends on your expectations... will it suck up a mountain of leaves all at once? No. Will it suck up an appropriate amount of leaves based on the size of the nozzle? 💯 takes some usin to get a feel for its capabilities, but after a few hours of use, I'm pretty damn impressed. Burns through batteries pretty quick though. Recommend for makita user who already have multiple batteries. Otherwise, low power for loose dry leaves, or wait very patiently for batteries to charge🤷♂️ ... show more

  • Won't suck in sycamore leaves, which are mostly dinner-plate size.
Not enough negative pressure to suck in Sycamore leaves - size of dinner plates in Los Angeles area. Won't pickup the small acorns from oak trees. OK for sucking in smaller leaves. OK for most of the debris that accumulates in the garden shed. So the fantasy of pushing it along, leaving a clean wide path, is not working out. Maybe I will mount it, turn it on, stuff raked leaves in so I get useable mulch for the garden later in the year. It does make nice mulch. So it is paying for some of its $200 cost, and I may be able to find other good uses. Mea Culpa, I did not do sufficient research of the competition before getting the Makita. ... show more

  • Light
This blower is light and easy to use BUT.... It uses battery energy worse than any Makita tool we own. Also, the suction is okay for small leaves but bigger leaves will get caught at the intake opening which then requires you to move the leaves manually to allow the vacuum to ingest the leaves. This vacuum does break up the leaves to compostable small pieces well. ... show more

  • My New Favorite Yard Tool
I love this Makita yard vac! Eats through batteries, but I have 2 so I'm good on that. I use it every day, as I'm supper fussy about my yard. I've had corded ones and gas ones but this rocks as a grab and go vac. No messing around with cords, gas, starting issues, engine noise etc. The bag is super easy to empty and having a blower function also is just peachy. You'd love it too! ... show more

  • Good at first, gradual loss of power and started getting electrocuted when using it
Edited: liked it a lot at first but after a couple hours of use it started loosing power and I started getting electrocuted when using it. At this point I would not recommend this item. First review: I was pleasantly surprised with how well it worked. I thought that the bag would have needed to be emptied a lot more often. With the way it shreds the leaves I was able to do my entire driveway and courtyard, drained a 9 amp hour battery and the bag was only about 2/3 full when I emptied it. Going to buy a second one for the office, this is way better than using a blower and sweeping up. It does that and shreds all at once. ... show more
