Good job. Would have been better if cone could be rolled on the ground. Also. The cord holder needs work.

[Employee of tororlc] while this blower is extremely powerful, the need for a power extension cord is limiting... I loved the vacuum feature, which made cleaning outdoor leaves very easy.
Have lots of live oak trees and they do drop the leaves! Oh yes and they do drop acorns by the thousands! Bought this to blow them out of the yard and it works great! The yard had not been taken care of for a few years so the amount of leaves and acorns were mind blowing. This item made it much easier to remove them and to give you and idea of how much there was we bagged up 30 yes 30 30 gallon bags!

This product has a decent leaf blower, but when I switched over to the vac I kept getting a static shock. Will be returning this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from Toro.comBy Customer Care, March 20, 2017
This is due to static electricity. The same thing that can happen when the humidity is low and you walk across a carpet and get a shock from a doorknob or when you enter/leave a car and touch the door handle. While startling, a static shock is not harmful to an average person. Because outdoor power products have electrical systems or are powered by electricity, it is understandable why an operator would conclude that the product has a fault that caused the shock. A static electricity shock is not a problem with the product. It will go away when moisture conditions improve. There is no product defect to fix. We can suggest a change to different shoes or clothes may minimize or eliminate the static electricity condition.
Have only used twice, but find it beats my old two stroke gas guzzler. No more tennis elbow pain from attempting to start plus the TORO appears to be more powerful and quieter. So far so good
Pros: great power, lightweight
Cons: wish it were cordless

This product work as advertised. It has a great vacuum and is easy to empty.
When doing the vaccum bag is very awkward and would rather have zipper not on bottom.
Pros: suction
Cons: bag awkward
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought my first home in 1997 and one of the first yard tools I needed was a leaf blower. The Toro model I purchased back then had all the necessary features. Recently it was much needed at my vacation home in Wisconsin so that is where it now resides. Now needing a new leaf blower here. I shopped Toro and this new Toro Ultra Blower Vac (Model 51619) has all of the features of my older one with several enhancements. The tubes connect together more easily and the blower velocity can now be dialed up from slow to fast, rather than just "low" and "high" as on the old model. Also, with the metal fan blade (versus the plastic one in the old blower) I'm confident that those leaf piles I vacuum up for bagging will be thoroughly mulched. Tar spot disease appeared in the trees last year so it is requested that we bag the leaves for weekly pickup. I had the opportunity to use this new leaf lower for the first time this week and I am totally satisfied!
Pros: incremental speed dialup, quick connect/disconnect of attachments, 4 year old toro garbage can vac attachment fits
