    Good product for the buck!

    1. It can vacuum or blow with the flip of a switch. ***** 2. It does mulch the leaves well, minimizing emptying the cloth bag. ***** 3. Value of device for price especially when on sale. ***** 4. Comfort, weight and ease of use ***** 5. Paper bag option **** 5a. Bag easily falls off hose 5b. Hose untwists from blower. 5c. Bags are expensive but mulching will save 3 regular recycling bags ***** 5d. Use of this option is limited to mulching a pile of leaves, no movement. *** 6. Blow and vacuum CFS not as great as my old unit but still acceptable considering its capability and cost. **** 7. Very difficult to remove cloth bag for empting. 8. Wheel at bottom of device, not useful. Keeps device too high off the ground and cannot do side to side motion. 9. Two speed switch has little use in my applications, so not rated. Though I have criticisms, I still highly recommend this unit.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    Design flaws

    12 years ago
    Bought my second one recently and am disappointed with some of the design changes. Most annoying is that the bag (black) does not stay attached at the outward support. Seems the plastic clip should be on top rather than on the end of the bag. Will only stay attached when bag is approximately half full and continuously comes loose while in blowing mode; next is the short shoulder strap. I am 6' but still have to bend/stoop to suck up leaves when strap is fully extended. Also they have provided a metal clip and port for it on the handle. Unfortunately in most positions the clip catches the on/off switch turning off the machine. This clip is unnecessary in my view, and is positioned on the strap in such a way as to make it difficult not to use it. Power is less than past models and while the addition of the little wheel at the end of the tube makes straight-on vacc of hard surface easier it does little to help the random, side / side motion normally used to clear a lawn. Only reason I'm keeping this one is the easy-to-use lever to switch from vacc / blow which is not found on most other available brands. I'd rate this a 2/5 and am being generous.

    No, I do not recommend this product.

    Aucune puissance !

    13 years ago
    J'ai beaucoup d'arbres sur mon terrain dont presque une dizaine d'érables matures. J'ai acheté ce souffleur-aspirateur essentiellement pour la fonction aspirateur. Je trouvais génial le principe d'utiliser des sacs jetables. Je pensais qu'avec ça, le ramassage de feuilles serait beaucoup plus aisé. J'ai rapidement déchanté.... Côté souffleur, c'est acceptable, bien que jamais la vitesse n'a atteint le 130mi-hr. Mais comme j'ai un souffleur à essence, je m'en foutais un peu. Mais quand j'ai voulu aspirer les feuilles.... un petit aspirateur Dirt-Devil aspire plus que ça ! Ça m'a pris une demi-heure de peine et de misère afin de remplir un seul sac ! Je me suis vite rendu compte que remplir des sacs à poubelle à la main va beaucoup plus vite que cet aspirateur... Je l'ai retourné au magasin extrêmement déçu, j'aurais voulu que ça fonctionne. Peut-être est-ce conçu pour les tout petits terrains qui n'ont qu'un petit arbre dessus, et encore. Une machine qui part d'une bonne idée mais qui n'a pas le 10e de la puissance nécessaire pour faire ce qu'elle est supposée faire. Évitez ce produit à moins de vouloir être déçu...

    Q: Replacement fabric bag Does anyone know where I can get a replacement bag? I am looking for the permanent fabric one not the paper bags.

    • A: My info is a little dated but when my last bag wore out I contacted CT and they provided a local (Ottawa, ON, Canada) supplier. Unfortunately the item they shipped was not the right one. I returned it but had to eat the shipping costs. Most stuff these days is throw away and costs more to repair than replace. I sold the unit without the bag at a garage sale. Good luck.

    • A: This model has a nylon impeller which is very strong and common in this design. If you are looking for a metal impeller you can try the new 60-3877 Lawn Vac which is pretty cool and easy to use or you can review the 60-3874 12A Blower/Vac. You can search them on this website based on the product numbers provided.
