Makita XT287SM1 string timmer, blower, one 4ah battery, and charger. This is $80 off the base price listed at Home Depot and elsewhere. Home Depot will not price match with this vendor (I already tried).

Makita makes good lawn equipment like trimmers and blowers. This looks like a solid deal to me.

Thanks for sharing. Decent blower for basic leaf blowing. "delivers up to 459 CFM of air volume and 116 MPH air velocity". Not too heavy at 19 lbs.

I have this unit as well as a pretty decent sized backpack Makita blower and 95% of the time this is the one I reach for.

Bought this set earlier this year and it's great.
If you have more than ~0.3 acres you might want an additional battery as 4mah isn't much if you plan to edge driveways then blow, but this is a great combo at this price

The Makita 36 volt blower blows my two ego blowers away. I don't know since this is 18 volt.

I have these and I would say that the blower is pretty nice but the trimmer leaves a bit to be desired. If given the choice I would probably choose the 36v tools.

I can vouch for the Makita blower it is a beast and "blows" away all others.
It does drain the battery in less than 5-10 minutes of continuous use so one battery is not going to be enough for most who use it on the edger then on the blower.Applause

I already got he blower on the HD sale but this is tempting me to also get the trimmer.

I'd be all over this if I didnt have both already. If you are on the fence and already have other Makita batteries I'd highly recommend both of these.
I dont have any attachments for the blower and it works fine as is. The Trimmer had no issues in long weeds and plenty of power. I have a small yard so the 5 amp/hr batteries work fine for me, in the fall i may use two batteries for all the leaves. If you run the blower on high i would estimate 15 mins of continuous use. I could be off by 5 mins.
The multiple speeds on the trimmer is a great feature. I often just use the lowest setting so crap isnt flying everywhere.
