Best Blower/Vacuum for smaller yards October 7, 2008 This blower/vacuum from Toro is the best for those living on smaller lots. My home sits on a lot that is only 1/5 of an acre. With my home roughly in the middle of this lot there is a power outlet always within 100 feet of any section of the lot and a 100 foot power cord works great. I use a RIGID power cord because it is 12 amp rated (like this Toro)and has orange and gray striping to make it stick out and be seen. This Toro blower/vac is really QUIET, way more than gas models and you really do not need hearing protection to use it. It really vacuums up my Crimson King Maple Tree's large sized leaves and shreds them to where I have 1 bag to about 10 if I had raked them only. I am so glad not to have to use gas and deal with cord pulling and fumes and gas and oil etc. This Toro just needs a turn of a knob and you are off getting up the leaves. Fast, fun,clean and effective. The only drawback is the cord which limits the area you can use it but for smaller lots like mine,about 1/4 acre in size or less, I can not see buying anything else.
Great Quiet Power October 3, 2008 Excellent buy. Amazing power, variable speed. Ergonomic design. Traded a Craftsman gas for this great product. Happy ... so is my wife, who prefers to drag a cord rather than fire up a noisy smelly gas engine
Electric Blower October 3, 2008 Toro Ultra 12 Amp Electric Blower/Vacuum #51599 It is the best blower I have owned. It is even better than the 4 cycle gas powered Ryobi I am replacing. Ligther, much less noise, more power and I can adjust the air coming out. I would recommend this to my neighbors and family....! I have not tried the vaccum feature yet, but I feel it is going to work as good.
excellant October 3, 2008 My husband and I wanted a blower that was light in weight but heavy in power. We found it!!
Great Product September 30, 2008 Easy to operate, lots of power, light and well designed. A great improvement over the old blower I had that fortunately died.
