Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Save on Leaf Blowers & Vacuums
I have had battery operated blowers for years but battery or gas, a blower only blows it from place to another. I have always water a battery operated vacuum. There is so many times leaves pile up in the basement window wells, around the houses, on things and such. When I got this I went nuts and sucked leaves up for all over the yard. I was impressed and how it reduced the waste and really cleaned up the yard. I has concerns about the impeller since it is plastic. After 3 days of hard use something from a pile of leaves got in the impeller and broke a fin off. So, I emailed snow joe and they RMAed it. No cost to me at all. I have to say the replacement policy is top notch. Hopefully the new one with also a plastic impeller holds up. Happy vacuuming.

I chose to buy a manufacturer refurb unit that was much cheaper than a new unit (without battery included). it seemed to meet the specs and I was swayed because I already had the 40v batteries for my hybrid snowblower AND their great customer service and warranties. My goal was not a comparable replacement to my old corded Txxx but a good enough cordless unit to do light duty work quickly without the hassle of extension cords. As expected, the blower/vac is a smaller nozzle, but it is has the volume and power to quickly and easily clean a small or lightly cluttered area quite well. It is well balanced to hold and easy battery change out. I am not able to comment on using the blower/vac during a Fall season massive leaves battle cleanup yet but expect it to take longer to accomplish (with two batteries this is not an issue for me). I will test the VAC but do not expect to use it much as I know it will shorten the life of the impeller or damage it at some point (from my past experience). VACs are great for mulching leaves to recycle in the garden or compost pile and i did this with my corded unit a lot! A VAC mode uses lots of energy and I don't expect it to run long using batteries. Also, I suggest ONLY VAC a pile of leaves clean of sticks/mulch/bark. This unit has a PLASTIC impeller, not a metal one. Plastic impellers tend to break. If you plan to suck all those sticky leaves from the rock bed... this may be an effort in futility. I learned to blow what I can out of the bed, then VAC them up in the yard. If you have a condo with patios/walks or a small yard this is the tool for you. For larger areas or lots of leaves, be of the expectation that if you don't purchase multiple batteries initially, you may need to plan on it later (I prefer the 6volt amp vs the 4volt amp 40Volt batteries). There is one very irritating design of this unit that I do not like. The switch on the handle (easy to use) is only ON-OFF. no variable control. That is O.K. but I really liked the variable control on my old corded unit. I can easily live with on-off but I wish they would find a way to design a variable speed switch. I gave it four stars ONLY because of my demanding requirements and past experience with more powerful corded leaf blowers. as a cordless unit for light duty... I'd give it five stars. I recommend this unit to anyone... with realistic expectations of what you want a cordless blower to accomplish!Read full review

Nothing really worked as I expected after seeing the videos. The machine is too heavy for my hand to hold. I guess the battery adds quite a bit of weight to the machine. I had it on number 6 and it barely moved the leaves over the small rocks in my rock yard. I didn't have a lot of leaves to blow, just a small amount so I'm not sure how the machine does on larger jobs. It worked okay blowing the leaves onto the grass, but didn't work well with blowing leaves from in between the small rocks in my yard. The battery is quite heavy. I haven't used the mulcher or the vacuum yet.
