[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had mine for over 10 years, don't use it for the vacuum aspect but man, she blows HARD! Ive had gas models and other electrics but none of them put out the power of this one. I've dropped it and broken off the handle, and it'll give you a workout, but it does the job!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When my wife and I retired to the desert, our old gas/oil mix blower/vacuum decided to retire, too. Not a problem. Our new residence and lot were both much smaller, so a smaller and easier-to-use tool for yard maintenance made sense - plug in, unplug. So far, so good.Two negatives, however, surfaced early. The plug in the front made it necessary to re-route the extension to the back, and wrap on the product behind my arm and hand to operate easily and not trip over the cord. Secondly, the area where the collection bag attaches to the black plastic tube that inserts into the machine is pretty flimsy and insecure. Material and dust blows out. Nothing that a little duct tape doesn't fix. :-D. Unfortunately, I think replacement bags will become regular purchases.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far works fine... not sure it has the same power as my 15 year old one??? Wish I could have just bought the blower, as I never use the vacuum attachments....
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] El blower vac es poderoso! Me gusta la forma de darle o quitarle fuerza al vacum en el botón, es tan fácil como subir y bajar el volumen del radio!
Why change? My first Toro Blower/vac lasted 12 years, and only required replacement because the power cord pulled out of the housing. The new design on the current model eliminates this as an issue. The Toro has plenty of air velocity as a blower for my needs, and the vac/leaf shredder makes leafing in the flower & shrub beds a one step solution. Plus, the price was right!
A company that has been around since I was a child, my Dad used to have Toro products he used for yard upkeep. I have bought a few products in the past couple of decades, and all performed to expectations or better, while maintaining reasonable pricing.
This is a good blower/vac. Vacuum is very good except the bag blew a hole in it after about 9 months of operation. Toro did replace the bag free of charge but said that the bag should only be filled half way. Thank you Toro for this. This requirement is NOT mentioned in the manual. This is a very odd requirement, to me, this means Toro should redesign the bag so that it can be almost full when vacuuming. This now means I have to stop, turn off the unit and check how full the bag is, very inconvenient. I have purchased other brands in the past, filled the bag to almost full (the other brand had other issues).
