They have improved it
This the second vac/chipper I have owned. Although basically the same. Troybilt vs Sears Craftsman same except they use Troy Bilt motor not a Briggs. Improvement in that the rear wheels are twice the diameter as front and easier to push 9ver lawn. TB motor 159 cc is enough power but can be hard to start when hot. Great vacuum with dry leaves.
