I'm glad I ordered the Universal Leaf Collector for the Worx vacuum because it helps me work more efficiently. I can't prove it, but I believe I'm saving electricity by not losing productivity as I do when an attached bag gets full. And, I'm not always emptying a heavy bag. I prefer to rake or blow leaves into piles and pick them up with the vacuum attached to a garbage can. I can easily drag the can behind me as I move around. To keep the electric cords from separating, I replaced the normal female sockets with ones from the hardware store which lock. This arrangement simplifies and speeds up the chore of raking leaves.
This is a great idea... But.... It needs some improving... I love all my Worx products! But using this is awkward. It doesn't seal real well. The hose wants to lay over to the side while it's working and so the stuff your vacuuming gets caught on the side of the trash can and doesn't all go in the can... I have used the mulcher with the bag and it gets too heavy. I was so excited when I saw this... I will keep working with it and see if using a different trah can will work.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you for your feedback. I apologize about the issue you are having. Please be sure to use a 32-55 gallon container for best results. If you have any other concerns please contact our customer service department at 866-354-9679.
We have a large mulberry tree behind our house that drops lots of very large leaves over a two month period every fall. I used to use a bag with my leaf vacuum and before the season was over the zipper on the bag was worn out. This collection system saves time and effort while increasing the power of the vacuum by reducing the restriction caused by the bag. Great time saver!
At the age of 87, a real back saver. Wish I had discovered this years ago.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have seen this product all over but never thought i would own it till 4 weeks ago and used it on a job site with my helper we hooked it up to a 55 gallon trash can and we loved how we dont have to bend over and it fills the trash can up in min, thank you worx for making this
A friend had mentioned the LeafPro collection system and my husband loves it. Makes "vacuuming" the leaves a much easier and quicker job by mulching and going directly into the trash can.
