This blower is perfect for small jobs like sweeping the patio or driveway, etc. The nozzle attachment for using the vacuum is way too small (or just the right size for picking up dirt — depending on your perspective). I needed to pick up leaves and small trash on my porch.
We were looking for a blower that a 5 year old could use that really worked. It is powerful, small and lightweight. He loves it! Keeps him busy keeping the patio and his trampoline clean of leaves.
