I bought two -- one for me and one as a gift for a friend. It was easy to assemble but at first I was disappointed that it barelt had enough power to move leaves on grass and sidewalks. Then I removed the small nozzle, found the speed dial and turned it up. Now it can clean up the most stubborn leaves in shrubs and gardens, lift and move wet clumps of leaves, too. I also used it to remove new fallen snow. At higher speeds it doesn't hold a charge as long, but the battery recharges quickly. with two handles it is easy to hold. We're both happy with the 3-in-1. It is powerful and easy to use. It was a great buy!
good performance, clever design for dual functions

Vacuum/mulcher works well, having tried it today on damp leaves. Required only a low power setting, mulched well, passed needles and small twigs through without clogging. It did get heavy when bag was full, but that was undoubtedly because the leaves were still damp.
Pros: Great Value, Easy To Use, Accurate Performance, Unique Features, Great Design, Easy to assemble, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good blower/mulcher

Blower works great. Don't need the higher settings. Vacuum/mulcher works okay. Tubes will clog on occasion making you stop to clear it. The static strap is a hazard. Stepped on it several times. Battery doesn't hold a charge long enough to clear a medium sized yard. Second battery is needed as a switch. Love the wheels, makes it less cumbersome.
While some assembly is required, the instructions are very clear and it took only minutes to assemble. I love the wheels as it makes it much lighter when picking up leaves on the driveway or other smooth surfaces. The wheels are not as much help on uneven surfaces like the yard of course. It's a little heavy when the bag gets full of leaves, but the bag is relatively easy to empty. Only complaint I have is that the battery doesn't last long enough for our large yard.
This is a great blower. I was looking for cordless, not to heavy when battery was in and would blow a lot of leaves in the spring. I have had this about a month and it is great...I use it to blow off my patio. I think it will really do the job in the spring...love the 6 different speed options. Battery life seems fine but only use it for 10-15 mins at a time... still shows that it has plenty of battery life.
I bought this for vacuuming leaves in the bush and small area after chunk of leaf removal. I mean leaves fall down continuously in the fall. I am happy with the power of the mulcher. I think bigger than 200 MPH may suck stone and existing wood mulch on the ground.
