This is my second Toro blower-vac. The first one I used for 14 or so years and had no problems. However, with the new one there are 3 main problems.
1. the 2 smaller ends of the blower tube will not attach to the larger part.
2. the electrical cord does not stay in the slot provided.
3. the air intake tries to suck my pant leg in if I hold the blower too close. This never happened with the old one.

I bought this to do a HUGE driveway and finished in 2 minutes! It has power, good direction, and my grandsons who do yards keep stealing it because the youngest from 7 can use it all the way up to the 15-year old . . . it does an old lady's job and a man's job. :)
I would recommend this to a friend!

The motor on the original unit started smoking. Returned to store and so far this unit is working good.

I saw good reviews on this blower, so took a chance. It works better than expected. It appears to perform better than some gas blowers neighbors have. The only reason I took a point off dependability is because I only had it for one year and it's too soon to tell.
Pros: minimal maintenanc, works well
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have two large oaks, and it took me just a couple of hours to shred all the leaves and pack them into two contractor bags (without shedding, it used to be 10+ bags). Yes, it was a dusty job, but not a big problem with reasonable protection. Now, half a year later, those leaves turned into perfect mulch!
I tried to use the blower too, but it caused way to much mess; having a medium size yard, it's easier for me to rake the leaves.

So far, I have used my blower to blow lawn clippings and other garden debris and it has performed very well. I particularly like the variable speed control, which is far better than my previous one that only had two speed settings. Have not yet used it as a vacuum, but anticipate it will perform as well. Changing the accessories from blower to vacuum is a bit cumbersome, as it is to drag an electric cord behind you, which tends to tangle. But the relative light weight is less fatiguing than comparable gas or battery blowers.
Pros: blowing power, variable speed control, light weight
Cons: having to drag extension cord behind you, changing accessories

The only draw back to this product is that dry pickup quality is reduced after several uses. The air flow volume and speed is restricted by fine dust plugging up the pickup bag. The bag requires washing after several uses to maintain high volume air flow for good pickup capabilities.

I bought this blower vacuum to use mainly as a vacuum. I have a lot of trees in my back yard and it does an excellent job of vacuuming the leaves from our shrubs and ground cover.
It grinds the leaves very nicely and they are easily disposed of from the collection bag.
Very satisfied.
