You’ve finally got the opportunity if you ever wanted to own a jet.

The WORX WG520 Turbine 600 Electric Leaf Blower is equipped with something special: a jet engine-type motor.

At WORX, engineers have figured out how to create a compact jet-style engine and craft it right into their leaf blowers for extreme blowing force.

The best part about this patented Turbine Fan Technology is that it’s relatively quiet even though powerful.

You won’t have to worry about the sound of a jet taking off every time you start this leaf blower up.

But you will be able to brag to the neighbors about your new jet.

Features WORX WG520 Turbine 600 Electric Leaf Blower

2 Speed Versatility

Rather than a one-speed fits-all leaf blower, the WORX WG520 Turbine 600 Electric Leaf Blower has 2-speed capabilities.

Did you know that it’s not always best to go as robust as possible?

In some cases, you’ll want to switch to lower speeds, like working tight corners or leaves blowing on the pavement.

On the open lawn, you’ll want to ramp things up a notch and switch to speed 2, which maxes out at an impressive 110 miles per hour, where the patented turbine technology will take it away.

Powerful 600 Cubic Feet Per Minute

The Turbine 600 was named after its mighty cubic feet per minute air volume.

The WORX WG520 Turbine 600 has a high capacity of 600 cubic feet per minute or CFM.

This means you’ll be able to whip your yard into shape in no time, thanks to the extremely high CFM.

Hyperstream Nozzle For Tight Jobs

Most leaf blowers are suitable for directing large volumes of leaves in one open area.

But what about when you’re working in tight corners?

Most of the time, this means that you’ll have to get back to the corners and small areas and spend a few minutes handpicking leaves.

Thankfully, WORX thought about this issue and crafted an attachment for the WG520 Turbine 600 Electric Leaf Blower to handle these tight corners.

Included with the leaf blower is a hyper stream air nozzle.

WORX designed this as an attachable nozzle that you can put on the leaf blower when you need to concentrate your leaf blower’s power into a tighter, specific area-like corner.

Ergonomic Onehanded Operation

It can take a while when you need to get an entire yard of leaves cleaned up.

Thankfully, WORX designed this leaf blower to be lightweight to handle more extended use if necessary.

The WORX WG520 Turbine 600 Electric Leaf Blower is only 6.4 pounds, so that you can operate it with one hand instead of two.

The leaf blower was designed to be ergonomic, making it very easy to grip even if you have a much larger yard.

No Surprise Unplugs: Extension Cord Retainer

When comparing gas leaf blowers to electric corded leaf blowers, one of the most significant downsides of corded leaf blowers is that there’s always a chance the cord can get randomly unplugged.

WORX heard this problem firsthand from their customers, and they figured out a solution to tackle it.

The WORX Leaf Blower Electrical cord comes with an extension cord retainer.

When your cord is attached, it won’t get randomly disconnected, even if it gets snagged on something.

This means you’ll get all the benefits of an electric leaf blower without the hassle of a potential cord disconnect.
