Comment:
first of all this is not a true leaf blower! it is a blower/sweeper! this unit works great at clearing side walks and driveways of grass and leafs.not strong enough for big lawns for leaf blowing.it only has a 7amp. motor. it does a great job,just don't buy it for your lawn.but if you like your sidewalks and driveways clean.it will do a great job! I've had it 3 years and have had no problems at all.
How long have you owned it:

Comment:
Bought this online at [$] for pricing and free-shipping. Awkward at best. Poorly constructed and manufacturers warranty does not cover many of the wear and tear parts which are made in China. Parts are flimsy and not designed to withstand normal outdoor use. Parts are failing after 3 months of light use and, of course, are not covered under the warranty. Tried to order replacement parts and was told these are back-ordered several months from China. That means I cannot use the leaf blower and have to wait months for parts! It may be the price is right but overall it's not worth buying and should not be considered at all. Difficult to avoid products made in China these days but American manufacturers should look hard and closely at the consumer products they sell to us. Finding products made in the U.S.A. does make a difference!
How long have you owned it:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
