Straight out of the box this item, brand new, failed to work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I debated between the lower end, the mid range and the high end units. I decided to go with the mid range unit. It does everything I expected and need for my yard. I like the idea of a metal blade. It has a good warranty, too.
I have had one for the last 2 years. I needed a new bag, but decided just to get another blower vac. I have a problem transferring from blower to vac. I just don't have the strength to make the change easily. Which consists of taking the bag off. I am a woman in my 70's with arthritis in my thumbs, other wise it is very easy for me to use. My grandson has no problem, it is just my problem. I have two 60 yr old oaks, the blower vac is great for the leaves. I use one as a blower and the other as a vacuum.
I was so excited to get the bigger product.( I had been pleased with my smaller model, but sadly it was recalled). It is a bit harder to handle and to use in tighter areas but works well overall. I was extremely disappointed that the bag zipper broke and ripped away after one use. Now I am stuck with the expense of purchasing a new bag or paying for a repair. Not what I expected.
After.a heart attsck, my wife did not want me to rake leaves any more; so we bought a leaf blower. It is light-weight and easy to use. The most difficult part of use was finding a place to plug in the extension cord. We haven't yet tried the vacumn; but we are very happy with the purchase based on the blower.
This blower works perfect for me. I used a gas powered blower for many years until I developed arthritis in my shoulder. Pulling the cord was painful. My new Toro works perfect. Just plug it in and I have a high speed blower I can use year round.
Hopefully, this replacement is as good as our last Toro blower!

This was bought to replace our ancient Toro electric blower that gave up the ghost after 15 years!
I like the metal impeller on this one and the multi speed dial. Today, I went out and blew the leaves in our back yard with it and it performed very well.
I gave high ratings due to the experience with our old Toro blower and how this new one has performed.
