The best bang for the buck
By HoboVerified Reviewer from Woodland Hills, CA on 12/26/2006
Pros:
Attractive Design, Bag is a bit awkward, Durable, Easy To Install, Easy To Use
Cons:
Bag is difficult location
Best Uses:
Outdoors, Patio

I found this very easy to use. Although the bag is a bit difficult because of it's location. It's location gets in your way of work. Hard to manuver when it gets full. Would be better behind you and not in front of you.

 
Good solid blower
By JimmyVerified Reviewer from DC Metro Area on 11/24/2006
Pros:
Easy To Install, Easy To Use
Cons:
A bit heavy
Best Uses:
Outdoors

I've used this product twice since purchasing it last year. It's a great product but it does get a bit tiring after carrying it around for a while. I have not used the vacuum feature yet, but the bag that it does come with is rather large and could hold a decent amount of shredded leaves.

 
Only 1/2 a machine
By Jim from Canada on 10/22/2006
Pros:
Attractive Design
Cons:
Difficult To Install
Best Uses:
Outdoors

Well, the vacuuming went well enough. Lots of power, not difficult to maneouver.
HOWEVER, since I couldn't get the vacuum bag off because of the poorly designed clips, I could never try the blower part. Instructions say nothing about removing the bag. So I returned it. Make sure you run through assembly and conversion procedure to make sure it can be done easily.
