Very good for leaves in barked areas

The main unit is solid. In blower mode the unit is well balanced - just aim and walk along to herd the leaves into a general pile. The adjustable speed makes the blower and vacuum ideal for getting leaves out of rock covered and bark covered areas without rearranging or sucking up your landscaping (don't put the vacuum end on the ground and drag it, just hover above the leaves). Only downside I've found so far is the bag attachment for the vacuum. If there were an accordion style connector about a foot long that went into the bag at least half the width of the top of the bag it would allow greater movement of the vacuum unit without impeding the flow of air to the bag. If you don't keep the vacuum and the bag lined up fairly straight, you will create an over pressure that pushes little pieces of shredded leaves out along the connection between the bag and the hard plastic adapter.
Pros: variable speed, metal impeller
Cons: connection to the bag
I would recommend this to a friend!

Some good features, the bag is a pain.

I bought this product in 2013 and use it regularly. The blower is fine, not too heavy, and I like the variable speeds. The vac gets up the leaves OK and the metal impeller is safe with twigs and acorns though the acorns don't always make it to the bag. The bag is a pain. When full it is heavy and awkward and the strap is uncomfortable. It unzips at the side from the top down so getting leaves into a bin is messy and dusty.
Pros: variable speed
Cons: the bag

I have used it only few times:
- The tip pf the blower pipe comes off during operation. I had to secure it with a screw.
- I also found the unit rather heavy for longer operation : no shoulder strap for blow mode.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from Toro.comBy Toro Customer Care, October 28, 2015
The power and concentrator nozzles are installed into the blower tube (They are not designed to be connected on the outside of the tube).
The force of the air will push the nozzles to the end of the blower tube. should not slip through the tube and come off.
If you continue to experience issues please follow the warranty procedures listed on the last page in the Operator's Manual

Product is very easy to handle, I like the idea that I can use the vacuum bag for a storage bag.
