Customer Reviews for WORX - WG509 12 Amp TRIVAC 350CFM Corded Blower and Vaccum or Mulcher - Black

Went together easily and is simple to operate. Mulch bag works better for large people. Short people will find the bag large and in the way. I was expecting more power on the blower, especially given the amount of noise. It sounds like it should be able to blow damp leaves but they have to be quite dry before they move well. It is light weight but in more than one way.

I've had my machine for three seasons. Last year the bag tore slightly at connecter. This year it ripped about 2 inches more and can no longer be used. Is there a replacement bag?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Brought the Trivac a few weeks ago to clean up leaves in my yard. This unit is light and easy to use. The reduction in debris is amazing how it transforms a pile of leaves into a handful of fine mulch. The variable speed control allows for excellent control of the task at hand of either blowing debris or vacuuming up leaves.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great product!

My wife pushed for this product and I was hesitant about the buy. Once it arrived she was quick to open it up. She plugged it in and began blowing of the driveway with ease. Then, with only a few easy adjustments, she converted it into a mulcher. I was impressed with how easily she accomplished this. We have four huge oak trees and there where acorns everywhere. It mulched them up no problem. It was loud but it was mulching acorns so that's to be expected. Overall it's an excellent product!

The vacuum sux

There are plenty of good reviews here, which is why I bought it.
The vacuum just doesn't have the suction power I would expect. That was confirmed when I put it on top of a cricket and it didn't get sucked up. If it's a very dry leaf in a pile or on concrete, then you'll be able to suck it up no problem. If you're trying to pull leafs out of grass you literally have to smash the vacuum against the ground and hope it'll suck it up. In addition to the weak vacuum the whole apparatus is just cumbersome. The blower is underneath the vacuum so you have to tilt it up, and that wears on your wrist really quickly!
It does mulch the heck out of the stuff it does suck up, so that's good.
The other good thing is I was able to return it with no questions asked and I promptly got a refund.
I knew after using it for 30 minutes it wasn't the right too
I have a 1/2 acre with trees everywhere. I was REALLY hoping this tool would do the trick.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and experience with us regarding the Trivac. I do understand where you are coming from, for the task that you are trying to complete, I would recommend that WG518 as you can remove the nozzles and only use one at a time. It is much better and should be able to tackle the job that you need to complete.

Great mulching capabilities

I purchased this about a month ago for the upcoming leaf season. Last year I purchased two other blowers solely for the mulching function as I have 15 large trees on my acre lot and my neighbors have just as many so leaves are an issue, the other blowers were decent as a vaccum but I wanted leaf mulch for my flower beds and they didn't shred the leaves at all. Finally today I gathered up enough leaves to fill a 13g trash bag and tested it out, I was thrilled to see it shredded the leaves very well the suction was great and I was left with just enough to fill a standard grocery plastic bag. I've attached pictures of the mulch because I looked at this model for months before purchase because I was unsure it would provide the mulching I desired. It did a great job and was lightweight enough that I won't get tired quickly as I work and switching to blower was so easy I decided to clear my drive of dust.

Bought the regular Tri Vac last year and it worked to my satisfaction. However, not everything became munched. This year I bought the upgraded Tri Vac and what a difference. Everything vacuumed was munched. Much happier with this purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!
