It sounds like your machine may not be getting enough power. We always recommend using a 12 or 14 gauge outdoor cord to ensure enough power gets to the motor. If you would like further assistance, give us a call at 888-384-9939. We're happy to help!
Purchased 3 Toro Blowers (51619) over the past 12 years. Prefer electric over gas blowers. It does the job and sucks up leaves. It's usually the top pick on reviews for non-gas blowers.
I replaced my gas blower/vac of 25 years with this electric model. Has sufficient power, is easy to assemble, and is easy to convert from blower to vac and back. I also purchased the gutter cleaning accessory. It did a great job of cleaning out the gutters. The only caution is to use a hat or other head covering, because some of the debris from the gutters will rain down upon you.
In Arizona we have gravel yards and trees that continually drop debris. Love my new blower and have used it several times a week. The variable speed is awesome and it is much quieter than my old one. Very satisfied
This product is great for residential yard work, but the zipper on the bag does not last very long. I have had my wife sew a metal zipper on three bags so far.
It is my second blower Model 51619, it blows well but the brushes finish very quickly and the worst thing is that they do not sell spare parts

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for the Ultra Leaf Blower Vac. We are sorry to hear that the brushes are not lasting as long as you are expecting. We recommend operating the blower on a lower setting when possible to increase the longevity of the motor. To get help with parts and repairs, please contact a local Authorized Service Dealer near you. They would be happy to diagnose, repair, and even replace the product should there be manufacturing defects. You can find a local dealer near you at toro.com/locator.
My husband bought this about a month ago and used it today for the second time and already the bag has holes at the corners on the end where the zipper is. Bag material should be made of sturdier material. Works fine other than the issue with the bag.
