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.
- 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.

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
Unit has worked well both in blower and vac mode... Especially appreciate the variable speed capability..... Dependability rating will be defined with time...
