Purchased a second Toro 51619 leaf blower because I like the machine and I had purchased the Toro Gutter Cleaning Kit.
The reason I had to buy a second one was because the off/on switch went on the first one. The switch couldn’t be replaced. Toro isn’t being very environmentally friendly.
Would suggest the top of the handle be flat rather then rounded. The reason is there are times when you have to lay the blower on its back, and the blower wants to roll around.
I also have a couple of suggestions for the Toro Gutter Cleaning Kit. Trying hold on to the 2” pipe when the blower is on high can be a handful. I made a “D” handle and attach it to one of the pipe sections with a 2” clamp, the type of clamp used with drier pipe. I adjust the “D” handle to where it is comfortable.
Secondly the piece that goes into the gutter should be adjustable. Not up and down but side-to-side. If all you had to do was walk around the house on impeded it might be all right.

Not ergonomically designed. Not for women. Blower good. Vac is poorly designed. Vac mode: cord is at front and tangles, bag very heavy to carry on shoulder and walk around, hard to maneuver with the poorly designed vac attachments (drag it), zipper location is wrong - collects all debris particles and dust. Zipper let go after 2 uses, putting attachments on/off lacks ease ability. A major redesign of the vac should be done. POOR.
Response from ToroDealer.comBy Toro Customer Care Team, January 9, 2019
Sorry to hear you are not happy with this machine. Our blower vac weighs in at 8.5 lbs, and the shoulder strap will help distribute the weight. We recommend not dragging the bag on the ground as you operate, in order to prolong the life of the bag. Either adjust the strap, otherwise we do offer the leaf collector as an accessory to the blower vac. This leaf collector eliminate the bag and will connect your blower to a utility bin. For a full line of products, please visit Toro.com. Thank you.

I purchased the Toro Ultra Blower Vac (51619) because of the great performance the previous Toro blower gave me and this newer model delivers better than expected.
Pros: horsepower, variable speed control
Cons: location of electrical receptical

Compared to other leaf blowers and mulchers on the market, the Toro is a winner. The metal blade does a great job at mulching the leaves. The power dial makes it easy to adjust for picking up leaves in flower beds where there is a bark base without sucking up the bark chips. The bag is larger than others on the market and has a conveniently large zipper for easy dumping. The only challenge is when you have large broad-based leaves that require you occasionally to turn off the blower and clear the suction channels.

I would rate this a 5 star, but I always think that there is room for improvement on anything. My wife has used the blower and says that it works fine and has plenty of power. Have not used it as a vacuum at this time.

This is the first blower I have ever owned. With the variable speed you can blow off the driveway and then slow it down to blow over bark. This especially helpful when using the vacuum, so you don’t suck in larger pieces of bark.

Broke the first time but I like it

Bought the Ultra Blower/Vacuum Model No. 51619 two weeks ago and finally used it yesterday. Finished most of the leaves before it stopped working and I found the bolt that holds the impeller on was missing. So I came to this site to try and find a repair part. Otherwise it worked okay with a jam now and then from limb that was too large.
Pros: works like i needed it too mulching.
Cons: it broke the first time i used it.
