This is my 1st leaf blower and I chose to purchase this model which has the metal parts. Better constructed, but this adds to the weight of the product. Handles well, just need to move from one arm to another when operating the blower for a long period of time. Still adjusting to the maneuvering the blower to move the debris into a nice pile to pick-up. I haven't use the vacuum feature of my leaf blower yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

First Use-Good performance

I have only used it once since buying.
The price was very reasonable compared to other brands and features I was looking for.
The blower is quite powerful. A great feature is the ability to adjust the blowing (and vacuuming) power. It is quieter than I expected. However, I still wear earplugs. The weight is just fine.
Using it as a vacuum is a bit cumbersome because of the vacuum tube and bag positions. This could be user inexperience so it might take some getting used to. Some reviews mentioned a plastic blower/vacuum blade- it is nice to see that it is a metal blade now.
Overall, I recommend for simple house use.
Pros: adjustable speeds
Cons: vacuum design

Plug and play. Hey! Starts first time, every time. Quickly clean out garage floor, driveway, yard. No more gas blowers for me.

This is my third Toro blower/vacuum. The product is lightweight, and works perfectly for the area around my residence. I recommended this product to 3 people in my neighborhood. All 3 purchased the vacuum/blower.

Second one I have bought.

The unit has a plastic clip where the bottom inlet cover locks into place. This broke on my first unit and I had to tape it together. Was hoping for improvement. Also the Adjustable speed switch broke on my previous unit and replacements are not available, which is poor. Even with all of this the metal impellar and the adjustable speed is what won me over again. This will be my last try.
Pros: adustable speed
Cons: unavailablity of parts
