Lightweight and very easy to use.
It's lightweight and easy to use. I'mm 77 years old and can handle it very easily. Both the vac and blow are strong and it's amazing how so much can be compacted into the bag. Simple to empty just make sure you pull the zip up properly. A bit cumbersome but suprisingly can get into very small spaces, if you can't vac, blow and the area will be clean in no time. At the moment I have three gardens to keep tidy all with different layouts and have no difficulty at all.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Leaf Vac Blower
The length of the power lead makes it difficult to use. It's ridiculously short. It vacuums OK and blows OK but in addition to carrying the leaf bag, I have to carry my cable extension reel as well. It's not a light load. Nil points for design, 6/10 overall.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Useful addition to yard maintenance
This was bought after I had used a different model, borrowed from a friend. The good points are an easy to use waste bag, light weight, comfortable operating position and easy on-off switch control. I found the suction was not quite as effective as the model I borrowed - possibly this was because the power of the motor was a little less - and the suction level was not variable but it did deal with dry and damp leaves effectively. The mains cord is laughably short, necessitating an extension cable. There is some virtue in this as it simplifies storage with no long cable to get tangled. Overall, the kit works satisfactorily with no really serious downside. It's probably not the most effective piece of kit on the market but it is relatively inexpensive and because of that, quite good value.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Plenty of power
Generally, it seems to be a well made product and good value for money but only time will tell. The only downside is that, if anything, it has too much power in that when sucking up leaves or grass cuttings from round the edges of a lawn it tends to pick up any loose soil as well. When I first got it, I looked at the collecting bag and saw that it didn't detach from the main body for emptying (my previous vac was a Flymo where the bag was detachable). This, I thought, would be a downside but I found that by laying the vac across the green bin and then unzipping the bag, the job was quite easy.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Works well for my small garden & on gravel too!!
Yes it is a bit fiddly to put the parts together but well worth it in the end. It has done exactly what I needed it to do and with a long extension lead it covers all of my 25 x 20 foot garden. I have a gravel driveway and path and it does pick up the leaves from that well - you have to hold it about 2 inches above the leaves so it doesn't suck up the small stones, but it seems to throw any stones it does pick up straight back out. I have a lot of trees surrounding the garden so loads of fallen leaves to dispose of. Obviously it works better if ithasn't rained for a few days and the leaves are dry. It is fairly light for me to use (woman in her 50s) but obviously gets heavier as the bag fills up. It is very easy to empty because the zip is around the corner of the collecting bag. I suggest switching it off to give the motor a rest every 5 minutes or so. Not sure it would survive being on continously for a long period of time Overall I am really pleased with it, I think it is great value for moneyVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

garden vac
good piece of kit, strong suction it even sucks chippings up but spits them back out. Sometimes jams up but easy to unblock but thats partially my fault for expecting too much but overall easier than using a brush and i would recommendVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Not bad for the price!
Bit fiddley to put together and is a tad heavy to use. Sucks up the leaves and mulches them into the bag which can be a bit messy to empty. But on the whole, a lovely little tool.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A Very Good Leaf Vacuum / Blower
The Handy was a pre used item, but had it not been for a very small part of the vacuum bag having been stapled, I would hve given it 5 stars - I have now repaired the bag and have to say it is a very good vacuum / blower.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

HANDY 2600w Electric Garden Vac Blower
Great piece of kit, really good value for the money and is robust/well made. When vacuuming up leaves, it does occasionally clog up right from the end of the suction tube to the fan/impeller with a loss of suction and takes a good few minutes to clean out as the bag needs removing and refitting afterwards, keep a piece of wood handy (short length of brush shank etc) to poke it with and clear the blockage. Best to ensure you give it some time to digest the leaves and not try not to over do it to prevent clogging up. The bag can be fiddly to remove and refit after emptying, but that's about it really. No problems at all with the 'blow' sequence.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
