I’m on my fourth Toro Leaf Ultra blower/vacuum, so I’m underwhelmed with the durability. With each replacement I have been increasingly careful not to suck up damp leaves or dirt. But the last time my unit died, it was on blower mode. The reason I have replaced it with the same model was because of the interchangeable parts. I’m keeping my fingers crossed this time will be the charm and it will give me better service.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought it so far working great. Time will tell how it holds up. Firt thing to go on these is the impeller. Hope a replacement is available.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second Toro ultra blower/vac I have purchased. My first one lasted over 10 years and that is the reason I purchased a new one. Great product! Like the small changes made like the cord holder and the smoother control knob. See you again in 10 years or so. Thanks again for a very durable product!
We bought this blower on 2-9-2020. We used the blower very minimally (once every couple months) and today (2-27-2022) we plugged it in to use it and it no longer works. Just over 2 years and the blower doesn't work!! Unbelievable. Last Toro product we will ever purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate you taking time to provide feedback about your Ultra Leaf Blower Vac, and hope the following is helpful.
When using as a blower, the bottom inlet cover must be locked in place for the motor to turn on. For the vacuum feature, the same is true for the vacuum tube. We suggest checking these safety features, in addition to making sure the extension cord is fully seated. You can find this information and more in your owner's manual by going to Toro.com/Manual.
If these tips don't get the tool operating again, you have the option of taking it to an Authorized Service Dealer for inspection. A list of dealers in your area can be generated by visiting Toro.com/Locator.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the blower for two months and it was slot better than I expected! The blower speed and power is excellent compared to my last one. Also the cord attachment works great to prevent damage. It’s also a lot lighter than I expected. Overall a great purchase!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s great for getting leaves out of dense garden beds, for a mulcher vacuum product, having it corded is great because the batteries on other probably won’t last very long with that much work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this toro vacuum to mulch up the leaves in my fenced in backyard, it worked get to clean the leaves that collected in a stairwell that goes down to my basement. It worked very well and I was very happy with its performance.
