Review: Toro vs. Craftsman. UPDATE - In the past two decades I've gone though three electric Craftsman leaf blowers. After several years of service, my most recent Craftsman blower finally burned out. I chose the Toro 51609 Ultra Electric Blower/Vacuum because of the great reviews and reasonable cost. First impressions: 1. The Toro is slightly lighter than my old Craftsman. 2. The Toro's metal impeller blade is unusual for electric blowers (they are usually tough plastic). It does of terrific job of snorking up and grinding leaves, dirt, even small twigs and acorns. The suction and blowing power is clearly superior to my old Craftsman. 3. At full blast, the Toro is considerably louder than the Craftsman; enough so that I'm going to start wearing hearing protection. It is still quieter than those darn gasoline blowers, though! 4. Instead of a simple on/off switch, the Toro uses a knob that smoothly goes from "off" to full blast. I prefer a simple on/off or rocker-switch, but no biggie. 5. I almost forgot. You need a good electrical cord to power this 12-amp leaf blower. A standard household extension cord can burn up (literally!) and is a real physical danger; don't cheap out! I use a 100' Yellow Jacket 2888 14/3 Heavy-Duty 13-Amp SJTW Contractor Extension Cord to power this blower and other yard and woodworking tools. Finally, the Toro's cord coiling hooks are useless for a reasonable heavy-duty cord, so I just left them off. All in all, this is a solid five star product. If I ever have a problem, I'll update this review. -------------------- UPDATE: I've been using this leaf blower for over two and a half years and it still works perfectly. Nuff said.
Review: SOLID PERFORMING PRODUCT! - I am very pleased with this electric leaf blower/vacuum unit! I got this primarily to vacuum up all the leaves from our various trees in our small S.F. backyard. The challenge, however, was being able to vacuum the leaves up, while NOT disturbing our existing black and white pebble groundcover. But the worries and concerns were all for not. Thanks to Toro's variable speed control feature, it made for really easy work here. Once I determined the appropriate power to use, the unit methodically and efficiently picked up ONLY all the leaves on top of all the black and white pebbles, totally leaving them again undisturbed!! Yes, VERY NICE INDEED. And, in terms of overall noise, it was very acceptable and NOT loud or painful whatsoever, particularly at the lower power levels! Was able to avoid wearing headphones or earplugs and just work through the effort no problem. Also, after throwing the Toro Catch Bag over my left shoulder (similar to a women's purse), the unit became remarkably light and efficient and very easy to maneuver around the yard. Overall weight of the unit was NEVER an issue. Also, after a bit of practice, I was able to effectively tie down and loop over the extension cord and power outlet, where the cord wasn't in the way or become a safety issue. Again, like everything in life, practice makes PERFECT!! In summary, this is a solid overall performer, made even better, given it's very reasonable asking price. I read all the reviews and based my purchase on them. And now, after having used the unit a few times thus far, I fully concur with everyone else! Highly recommended overall! Haven't had a chance to use the blower function as yet, but I'm sure this aspect works just as well. The Melcher function via the steel drive/cutter is very efficient at cutting down all the leaves to organic nothings!! ha ha.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it connected device or WiFi enabled? I was hoping to find a outdoor vac that can counts leaves and sends an email**
A: Nope....pretty basic.  Plug it in and with your own natural navigation and a little muscle you can complete the task all by yourself.  I don't recommend counting leaves.  It wastes too much time you could be playing with your ipad or smartphone.  As for emails.....do that when you take a break from your hard work.  Texting, emailing and blowing air while your multitasking is overrated.

**Q: Will this tool mulch leaves and acorns from oak trees?**
A: I have an oak tree along my driveway - no problem mulching the leaves.  If this manages to inhale an acorn, it will be shredded (or at least cracked open). But the inlet is very wide, which reduces likelihood of leaf  clogging, but also makes it difficult to vacuum up large heavier debris like acorns.  If you are on a quest to shred acorns (to reduce mice pest issue), I would first use a shop vacuum and collect the acorns into a bucket. Then you will have an easier time mulching them with this (if needed, you could lay the blower on it's side and drop handfuls of acorns down the blower's feed tube).

**Q: Is it possible to use ONLY as vacuum? Without mulching?**
A: No the vacuum has a steel blade in it (the reason my husband likes it) that mulches and is permanent.

**Q: is there an attachment for cleaning gutters?**
A: I made a gutter cleaning attachment with three pieces of one-inch PVC pipe and two 90-degree elbows, attaching it to the blower by cutting the bottom off a plastic bottle and taping it to the front end of the blower. Nothing elegant, but it works!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Toro vs. Craftsman. UPDATE
*by H***2 on September 26, 2013*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Got for fall leaf season.
*by D***E on June 13, 2014*

I got this unit for the dreaded leaf season. My parents live in a heavily wooded area with many different types of trees and since they are getting older I help them out. I can safely say that this thing is fantastic for vacuuming and mulching up the leafs. I would give this unit 5 stars except it burn out on me after 3 months. I definitely did put this unit through some pretty difficult work and would say that for the price it definitely was worth the one leaf season. I can't even begin to explain how much time it saved. The work time was cut in half and my mother was ecstatic about getting some leaf mulch/compost for her garden beds. There might have been even less time spent on this leaf season if I didn't have to follow her around as she decided where she wanted the next bag dumped. That being said this unit did burn out on me. There are two reasons why this unit possibly died on me; the first was the workload and the second was I left it in the garage this winter which may have caused the failure (more on the second reason later). The amount of hours I put on it was probably about 50 hrs. Most of that time it would be on for 8 hours, only turning it off to empty the bag. I was using this unit when the leafs were wet from rains earlier in the week. This definitely caused clogging up around the impeller and was obvious due to the lack of suction near the entrance of the vacuum attachment. I highly recommend using it when the leafs are completely dry of water and when they are dried out/shriveled up, this yields the best results. This unit is capable of handling the leafs when they are not shriveled up and does a very good job mulching them. The metal impeller is phenomenal and would recommend it if you have the possibility of "accidentally" (lazily in my case) sucking up a stick. I was surprised at some of the sticks (branches) this thing was able to mulch up and wasn't bothered hearing the occasional ping of a rock or acorn that got sucked up. The second reason why this unit possibly burned out was because of the winter (this is what I think did it). This past winter where I lived it was unusable cold and brutal. I will admit I left this unit in the garage not realizing exactly how cold it did get in there. The directions do give a temperature range to keep this unit to prevent it from burning out and I well exceeded that limit. I still think this unit was worth the money, because of how much time I was able to save. I will be buying another one next leaf season instead of having to donate the 3 full weekends of manually raking and dragging the leafs off to the woods. I will take much better care of the next and hopefully can have it through a few seasons.
