Anyone ordering the leaf blower TS?

 

 It looks like a good deal. I need something powerful yet light weight.

I have a Toro - paid less than this amount, like $50 or less.  However, I own a SunJoe pressure washer and it's a very good machine.

Suggestion:  shop around - you may find a better deal.

We had the Toro as well.  It finally stopped working so we tossed it.  The concept is good but trying to vacuum leaves into a bag on your shoulder never worked for me.  The bag fills up quickly and it gets pretty heavy.  You were constantly battling the bag while trying to vacuum the leaves.  It's not as easy as it looks.  We used it until it stopped working.  We didn't feel it was worth making the investment for a second one.  JMO.

As often happens, this TSV has some attachments other retailers do not offer.  You can find this item cheaper, but because of these extra stuff, it may not be a good deal. 

If it'll blow our dry snow here in CO, I might get it!

Re: Anyone ordering the leaf blower TS?

I bought it as I have been holding off buying a leaf blower/vac until now.  I will definitely make use of this.  I moved into this place during the winter, and when spring first came, I had at least 1 year and maybe 2 of leaves to get rid of because the place had been vacant.  What an awful job raking and bagging.  I am happy it has a metal impeller.  Just need a decent length extension cord.  The 3-year coverage was nice, too.

DH is in charge of buying this kind of stuff.  We also have a Toro.  We used it a lot.  However, we had to have our huge trees cut down in our backyard and no longer have any use for a leaf blower.

I Googled and EBAY'ed this item this morning and can't find the exact configuration for less and found less for around the same amount of $$.

Re: Anyone ordering the leaf blower TS?

I am looking for a hand-held light vac for use with tools.  Our upright is bad for using the tools because the tools don't stay in it and the hoses are not long enough.

Does the TSV have a strong motor...

Does anyone have suggestions for a type of hand-held that works?

Re: Anyone ordering the leaf blower TS?

My husband bought the tsv today. He likes the extra bag. And the warranty.

He has a gas powered blower/vac from Sam's that's still working, but he wanted lightweight. The gas one got so hot, it burned a hole in his bag, and through his pants and shirt, so he uses a zipper pillowcase instead (can't find replacement bags). He said the 250 mph is about or better than the gas one and no worry about the gas/oil thing. 

This year, he bought and is pleased with that tree limb trimmer from the same company. The trimmer has been very useful.
