About the STIHL BGA 57 Cordless Blower (Shell Only)
The STIHL BGA 57 Cordless Blower is an incredibly easy to use blower for homeowners looking to maintain their gardens with ease. The lightweight, yet powerful blower provides excellent balance and performance, making it perfect for clearing leaves and debris from smaller areas. Designed for domestic use, the BGA 57 offers a combination of efficiency, comfort, and convenience, ensuring your garden remains clean and tidy with minimal effort.
Lightweight and ergonomic design
Weighing only 2.3 kg, the BGA 57 is incredibly easy to handle, reducing user fatigue during extended use. Its lightweight design and excellent balance ensure that you can manoeuvre the blower effortlessly around your garden. The recommended AK 20 battery’s optimal centre of gravity makes the blower feel lighter and more comfortable to use.
Adjustable blower tube for customised use
One of the standout features of the BGA 57 is its adjustable blower tube. It allows you to choose from three different lengths to suit your height and preference, ensuring maximum comfort and efficiency. The symmetrical design of the trigger lockout makes the operator’s control handle easy to use for everyone, whether you’re right or left-handed.
Quiet operation for domestic use
The BGA 57 operates quietly, meaning you don’t need to use ear protection as you would with petrol-powered machinery. This makes it an excellent choice for residential areas where noise levels are a concern. You can work early in the morning or late in the evening without disturbing your neighbours, making your garden maintenance more convenient and flexible.
Environmentally friendly
Being a battery-powered tool, the BGA 57 doesn’t produce any emissions during operation, making it an environmentally friendly choice for your garden maintenance. By choosing this blower, you are not only keeping your garden clean but alos contributing to a cleaner environment.

STIHL BGA 57 top tips
1) When you’ve finished using the BGA 57, remove the battery, and clean the shell using a damp cloth or a soft brush. Store the BGA 57 in a clean and dry area, and out of the reach of children.
2) Clearing wet leaves requires more effort and power compared to dry leaves, leading to a longer time to clean a smaller area. For efficiency and to extend your battery’s life, it’s advisable to wait for a dry day to tidy your garden.

As always excellent product, reliable efficient and well just Stihl!
Michael –
Ideal for my large (0.4 acre) garden. It replaces my old noisy and difficult to start petrol blower.
Robin Howlett –
Great product delivered on time
Ron Cromie –
After using an electric blower for the last 20 years I decided to buy a battery blower, I am now 74 and I found it heavy going.
This Stihl blower is so easy to use and the balance in use is fantastic. With four fully grown Oak trees in the garden I have tons of leaves to move, I found it to be quicker and not so tiring.
Ken Wood –
It’s Stihl the best
STEPHEN –

G COGGAN –

Peter Wilding –
Usual Stihl high quality. Fairly battery intensive so does need 20Ah battery or higher
James Aspden –
Great tool for medium gardeo
Gary Smith –
Powerful and quiet
Andrew Wilson –
Bought to replace a petrol blower and this is just as powerful but a lot easy to use being lightweight, quiet and removing the mess of mixing petrol & oil. Getting about 15-20 use time from a full battery (AK20). I bought 2 batteries to give me extended use. Typically high Stihl quality too.
Garry Ball –
Very powerful. Long lasting battery.
Nick –
Great light weight and good power. With the AK20 battery get about 20 mins which is enough to clear an average garden
Mr Ingram –
Lots of trees in my garden so this is useful to blow leaves and other debris off the deck and paths on a daily basis. Very light. Use the battery I bought with my hedge trimmer.
Dan –
I love my my leaf blower, changed my life… well, it has made clearing my drive a lot easier.
Mark Illingworth –
This blower does the job of moving fallen leaves well. It is light enough for me (a pensioner) to use for about as long as the battery lasts.
GMD was the only merchant able to sell me the bare unit, as I already had battery and charger.
jonathan –
Great bit of kit, but the battery only lasts about 20 minutes.
Ian Dunsmore –
Great product, only issue is the 3 switch operation takes a bit to get used to, sometimes jams if you don’t do them in order, apart from that I would recommend.
