Great for really small dry leaves. Bag falls apart

Easy to use machine and battery for super small jobs and small dry leaves. Biggest disappoint is the zipper on the bag. Bout 4 bags, zipper is so poorly design that each bad zipper falls apart and you cannot open the bag from 3 use to 10 uses. Bags are expensive
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great for picking up shed dog hair
on July 26, 2023
Posted by: Prairie Dog
I purchased this unit for the specific purpose of having a cordless vac I can use in my house to pick up dog hair from hardwood and tile flooring. It works! My regular corded vacuum is heavy and awkward, and my Ryobi battery powered mini-vac would get clogged quickly with hair. After charging the battery and assembling this unit, I was able to do the whole place in less time than I've been spending sweeping up clumps of dog hair. The adjustable power setting on the lowest (1) worked just fine for this purpose. It's loud and unusual, I know, but for my purposes, it works great. And, I can also use it as a blower outside on the deck and patio areas.

Hard to find but I love it! Works great!

I've used this for 2 years now, and really only use the vacuum to get all the leaves and blossoms that fall or blow around my pool and back patio area. It's quiet, lightweight, and I can do all the steps and upper and lower patio usually with just one battery, but sometimes I have to use a second one and recharge the first. It picks up all leaves, blossoms from my Oleanders, but not heavier twigs which I pick up myself as I go. It keeps my back "yard" looking really neat and clean. I also clean my front steps and get all the leaves before company comes. I just empty the mulch bag when I'm done.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very disappointed. Did not have enough power to suck up leaves for mulching. Then tried to use it for blowing leaves off the porch and did not have enough power to work effectively. Wrote to company and returned product. Do not recommend!

Clogs too easily

I bought this a month or so ago and have used it often. It’s great on small leaves, but not damp or wet ones. The impeller and exhaust clog too easily, thus cutting off the vacuum strength. I had to unclog the exhaust tube into the bag with kitchen tongs so that it would word properly once again. What can be done to either avoid such clogging or more easily unclog the vacuum?
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have a number of hand held blowers and this one is the weakest of the bunch. You would be better off buying a 40V variable speed blower for about the same price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Vacumm is not sufficient for most jobs
on January 28, 2024

I like the way this product handles. I use the vacuum the most. But it is dissapointing that the suction power only picks up very small leaves and not larger leaves. It is constantly getting clogged. I don't understand wy B&D cannot make a coordless vacuum with more suction and a higher mulch ratio.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

IT BLEW ME AWAY!!

I purchased this leaf blower 4 years ago. I was concerned that it ran off of battery rather than typical Gas. I was amazed by the power and how long it lasted. I use it about twice a week to clean my patio, Deck, driveway, and sidewalk. I also use it to clean my Barbecue Grill! No kidding, when I wipe down the inside of my grill, I use this to blow out the small portions of ash I can’t reach. I also use it like a dryer after I wash my car or after I empty out my pool, it helps dry it up quick. The battery life is perfect (I don’t charge it for days) & the power is more than enough for any job. At one point I used it for about 1 1/2 hours straight before needing a charge. STOP THINKING ABOUT, JUST BUY IT, YOU WON’T REGRET IT!!! Save some money, get a long lasting product, and be willing to change for the better.
I would recommend this to a friend!
