RECALL needed : Used 3 times - It went up in smoke...service/repair has been problematic September 7, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I had a previous version of this blower for 5 years. Worked great until the impeller broke while mulching. I decided to buy the newer version.
I've only used it 3 times only to do some light blowing of leaves and grass.
The motor began to slow and surge ...then began to smoke and spark. Obviously Toro has a quality control problem with these units.
I've had fits trying to get it repaired. I went to Toro's website and local Ace Hardwares store that are supposed to service it are all saying we can't. Since I bought it from Amazon I just can't march back into the store and demand my money back. Be warned..you will have problems if you buy this unit and it needs repair. I will try another brand next time.

POWERFULLLLLL! August 11, 2008
GOT THIS FOR MY MOTHER-IN-LAW FOR XMAS B/C SHE COMPLAINS HOW MUCH SWEEPING SHE HAS TO DO DURING THE FALL MONTHS. SUCTION ATTACHMENT WORKS WELL ON PICKING UP AND CRUSHING THE LEAVES. A LITTLE BULKY...BUT GO FIGURE! LOUD...AGAIN, GO FIGURE! ATTACHMENTS ARE EASY TO CHANGE. IF THE BLOWER ATTACHMENT COULD REVERSE TO SUCTION, WOULD MAKE GREAT FOR GETTING INTO THOSE NOOKS AND CRANNIES IN THE YARD!!

Very good product. Does all I expected. One improvement might be a better way to secure the plug-in connection. I am very pleased with the blower and my shopping experience with Amazon.

This is a great blower and fantastic value. My husband laughs at me as I'm so excited to use it! No more sweeping for me :)

I've only used the vacuum once but it worked well. I was careful to try and stay away from the sticks though as other reviews have mentioned that it's not so good with those.

For general cleanup around the yard though, I would recommend it!

Potentially Dangerous June 20, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

Very disappointed with this brand and product quality. My brother-in-law and I both bought this hunk of junk at the local chain home improvement store to take care of leaves in our first homes. With the first use, I was excited because it really seemed to be working great at blowing and tolerable though a little slow at sucking the leaves, and it wasn't too heavy or hard to manage. Despite following all the directions, halfway through the third use, it just stopped working and would never start back up. Oh, and I only have 1, medium-sized tree.

My brother-in-law had better luck, depending on how you look at it. His worked through an entire season but then absurdly and dangerously started throwing sparks - and I mean a lot of sparks - and you could actually see a small electrical fire through the vents. Scary.

Shipping was too high to justify repair, and we didn't trust it to work again for long anyway, so we got rid of ours at a 95% loss after less than a month's use. Although this might suffice for just a blower, I have since heard other horror stories about this brand, and I will not being buying a Toro again.
