Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This thing worked pretty well for a while. It vac'd with moderate power and chopped leaves and twigs to a relatively fine mulch (I'd argue with the 16:1 claim, though). The blower was plenty powerful and I liked the fact that you could set the throttle and forget it. Not too heavy (except of course when you had a bag full of mulch weighing you down) and well balanced and easy to control. It clogged fairly regularly, but clearing the clogs wasn't too difficult.
The problem was that the plastic surrounding the impeller started to crack after the second season. This was (presumably) because of the necessarily harsh treatment that this part of the machine takes from the heavier items spinning and smacking the sides as they are being mulched. Then the cracks turned into gaping holes (greatly reducing the power, but at least partially fixed with duct tape). Then the plastic connector on the vac tube assembly completely broke. Now it is a barly passable blower that takes about 20 pulls to start. I think I'm going to switch to a two piece solution (walk behind vac and backpack blower). I just don't think that these combo units are built to last (I've now been through three, though admittedly this was the best of the lot). All of these machines just use too much plastic, and it breaks with use (and age).
