I bought this blower recently. It was easy to assemble and use. With practice you can do a great job on your yard.
Light and powerful enough to handle the regular yard most people have. I'm pleased with product and recommend it.

I have owned several models of Toro blower vacs. I have only had this unit for a short period of time, so my dependability review is based on the previous units I have owned over the years. I highly recommend this product; especially regarding the performance if vacuuming leaves. The unit is quite powerful for blowing leaves, and I found it significantly more efficient in vacuuming. It is faster and can vacuum leaves the less powerful units struggle with a bit. If you do not want to vacuum leaves, the smaller units have adequate blowing power to blow leaves and debris.

This is a cost reduced product and won't last 14 years like my old one

I bought a new leaf blower 250 mph just like my 14 year old blower. The new one just isn't as sturdy as my old one. If I set it down before the fan has stopped turning the fan hits the plastic housing making noise. So much for buying the next one. It works FINE in blowing the leaves but it won't last as long.
Pros: blows fine
Cons: quality of structure

Has good air flow for leave movement and suction to pick leaves and reduces leaves to a small mulch. Goo product so far.

The Toro 51619 has exceeded my expectations.

This is a replacement for a Weedeater blower. I should have replaced the old blower years ago. The Toro is ergonomic, it is acceptably light weight, and it does the job intended. The accessories are a plus. The Toro has cut my cleanup time in half.

I've used this a couple of times as both blower and leaf vac/shredder. I replaced the bag with the leaf collection kit (Toro 51502 Leaf Collection Blower Vac Kit) that attaches the hose to an apron that goes over a collection bin (trash can for me). The bag is useless if you're vacuuming a large amount of leaves. When using the Leaf Collection Kit, if you go over minimal suction, the hose blows out of the apron and/or the apron blows off the can or both. I tried varying the length of the hose within the can. No luck. I tried a cord around the apron, but it still blew off. Ended up using a competitor's apron which worked. As a leaf vac, it works very well on dry leaves, but all products do. It worked well with small sticks/twigs in the mix. It did not work well with damp or wet leaves. Gets clogged easily. The clogs are easily cleared, but it clogs way to often. At one point, the unit started making a strange noise. I took off the inlet cover and the impeller nut was gone.
Pros: clogs cleared easily
Cons: wat too many clogs, leaf collection kit doesn't work as advertised
Response from Toro.comBy Customer Care Team, Customer Service, January 9, 2019
Hello Mr. Griffin, We would recommend making sure the leaves are as dry as possible when trying to vacuum them. Regarding the warranty, we do stand behind our blowers for a full 2-years, 100%. Additional, as stated in the manual, hard materials such as sticks, rocks, acorns, and pine cones can damage the impeller, so should be avoided. With regards to the collection kit bag and hose, we recommend pulling the rope very tight and then pulling the black lock into place on the rope, this will provide a tighter hold than just holding the lock and sliding it back along the rope to tighten. For the hose, we also recommend having it at least 6 inches into the bag to provide the best hold. I hope this helps! Thank you.

This is my second purchase of this product. The first one still works but the speed control no longer; it cannot be shut off or adjusted. It would be nice if Toro made a replacement part.
