The best blower vacuum I’ve bought and I’ve had a few! I have a big garden and bamboo that constantly sheds and frangipani trees so leaf collecting is a constant job for me. I choose this model as I already have the mower with the 36volt battery. It’s like driving a car, you can accelerate the power on the trigger so it can be quiet when doing light sucking as with the bamboo yet has great power for heavier leaves. I’m a female and 68 and was told it may be too heavy but it is easy to manage. The wheels assist when needed. It mulches so the bamboo leaves become great mulch where needed.

Disappointed that it came with a 4Ah battery not a 5Ah. the blow is too broad and should come with a reducer for more targeted blowing. Balanced and a good weight ane easy to hold in one hand. I exchanged it for the new 36V HP™ 730CFM Whisper Blower which meets all my needs and has the grunt to deal with dry Stringy Bark tree leaves on my driveway and roof. I give that 5 stars.

What a disapointment this tool is. It just doesn't work. Other reviews are saying, I'm saying it, this blower has some clear design issues where some sensors are preventing the tool to start. The blower mode is too weak, I get the same power from a smaller workshop one. The vaccum mode doesn't vaccum correctly, low power, leaves get stuck and clog the machine. you can't vaccum tree bark or other slighly heavier objects, forget about those tiny branches it won't work either.Avoid at all cost ! Go with a normal blower only tool as the combo blower/vaccum are just not good.
