The blow speed was less than expected. And while it did chop up my leaves, I didn't feel like it was a 16:1 ratio. I poored out a previously raked bag of leaves and mulched them, only to find that the space savings was about 1/3.

LOVE this version Stronger suction , easy bag attachment , more control on the blower strength , love the metal mulching blades , especially on the oak leaves and their stems that would get stuck in the older version . The bag zipper doesn't open the bag wide enough to let a full bag dump out easily,that is my only complaint

I love the adaptability of size to attach to trash can for mulching and using less trash cans. The only issue is it is heavy to hold the leaf blower part after a while and you basically vacuum every spot in your yard. Wheels to help support the leaf blower mulcher on the ground would be helpful for the amount of time spent holding it. The speed of blower is good, but a little confusing as it is connected to vaccuum portion to send to mulcher. It takes a few turns of the switch to fully cut off blower or vacuum.

This mulches very nicely into tiny pieces. I love that you can attach it to a barrel and then dump it into a bag. The directions weren't clear at first, but once I figured it out, it was great! The blower feature worked well, too. The next batch of leaves I do, I'm going to put the bag inside the barrel to see if that will cut out the dumping into the bag. My only problem was that it was too heavy for me. I got my daughter to do the work.

I bought this a few weeks ago, and have tried 4 times. Once in the mulching stage, and 3 as a blower. The mulching part works great. I love the collection system. It attaches right to your garbage can, and neatly collects the debris. The blower part in a bit disappointed. It's not as strong as I would've liked. The way they have it set up on the machine is awkward. It is covered by the mulching shoot, and it's hard to direct it to the specific area I need. I still have time to decide if I need to return or not.

This product was purchased to cean up my back yard after all the leaves had fallen. I used a backpack blower to get them into piles and the worx did the rest with minimal raking involved. I caution anyone thinking that it is fast, but it is definitely effective.

This blower vac was nothing like we expected. It is big and bulky and the suction is just not good at all and even the power of the blower was just poor. There was definitely a reason so many were available at the store. Don't waste your time on this one

heavier than I thought it would be, plus need and extra long extension cord that is also heavy..... I am disabled, and it works OK

This is the 2nd unit ( I used the old one so much) . Power to shred bags and bags of leaves at a 16:1 ratio reduces the use of bags. It makes clean up a snap during the fall and spring. Heartily recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A little on the heavy side, but works great, it get the job done. Picks up everything that I need it to mulching the leaves and grass.
