Does the job
This sweeper works really well - once you get used to it. The front brushes are quite fine & soft, and can't cope with heavyweight debris, but are fine for dust, small leaves, and so on. The machine doesn't like twigs though, they tend to get twined round the spindle.
It also doesn't work backwards, because it deposits the stuff back on the drive, also you have to take corners on quite a wide sweep. But once you've got the hang of all this, then it really beats using a sweeping brush. I especially was pleased with the way it picked up dust in the shed, as normally I sweep it up with a broom and get half choked.
Outside, I had to loosen some moss with a scraper, which it then picked up quite happily. The box is very easy to detach and empty, which is important. This is definitely a domestic sweeper, and not suitable for industrial usage. Works best on long clear lengths, not in tight spaces. I recommend it.
