This is my third unit. First one the plastic clip broke so that the unit wouldn't turn on. The last one the switch went out going on and off while operating. When they work, I love it. Big maple leaves suck up with no problem. Just wish quality was a little better.

I bought this Toro blower to replace my old one which was at least 13 years old So far, So good. This one seems good and I will see in the future if TORO is as good as they used to be.

I bought one 3 years ago that I didn't use too much. It died on me last fall (2018). I wanted to have it fixed under warranty but it was just over the 2 year mark. As I have loved Toro equipment for many years, I went and bought another in October 2018 when the other one died. I only used it a few times then and twice this years to blow dust off my deck. It now smells like the motor is burning and doesn't blow much at all. I plan to see if a service center will get Toro to replace it. I have to say, when it works it really works great!
Pros: powerful
Cons: doesn't last

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

I bought this for the vacuum and, to be fair, I’ve never owned or used a blower/vac before. I’ve had it about a month and only used it once. It doesn’t suck up yard debris as fast as I was hoping (even on the highest setting). Also, it’s too heavy for me and cumbersome to operate (cord kept getting stuck). Also, the mulch it makes spews out of the bag at the attachment to the motor and this made more of a mess than it actually cleaned up. :(

Works great, however the bag is the weakest part. I the strap falls off your shoulder, the bag rubs the ground and a hole will be made in the bag and its all down hill from there. Air leaks from the connection from the bag to the vacuum. They need to make a better quality bag.
Pros: good suction
Cons: poor bag design quality
