BLACK+DECKERLeaf Blower, Vacuum and Leaf Mulcher 3-in-1, Electric Blowers for lawn Care, 12 Amp, 250 MPH, 400 CFM (BV6000)

This is the greatest tool I have ever purchased!! This thing not only sucks up leaves, but twigs too, quickly and efficiently. I use it over my rocks (entire rock yard in Az) and it has no problem with this. It sucks up big piles, leaves in crevices, leaves under furniture, it’s just amazing!! My patio and yard now look great, and it will give me a break from cleaning leaves out of the pool. Best purchase! Way faster than sweeping and blowing leaves around. Amazing!!!

Certified review junkie. I rely on them to make informed purchases, and I expect products to live up to their promises. After a year of searching for the perfect outdoor leaf vacuum, I finally found this one. And let me tell you, it's a breath of fresh air in a world of fake or exaggerated reviews.I didn't have unrealistic expectations—just a simple request: great suction, a vacuum that could handle pebbles, stones, and previously laid mulch without undoing all my hard yard work without a sweat. And guess what? This one fit the bill! The power and suction quality are top-notch, and the value is unbeatable.Just a heads-up: I found the cord to be short, so if you have a larger property, you'll need an extension cord to keep the suction party going. The design...meh. But that's a small price to pay for a product that actually does what it says it will.In short, this leaf vacuum is a winner. It's reliable, effective, and won't leave you feeling raked over the proverbial pebbles.

This was a replacement for the same model I have been using for about 5 years. It is fairly powerful blower as well as yard vacuum. The first one was pretty durable but suffered damage when is tumbled off the roof. The power switch broke off. The original model also came with a shoulder strap that made handling better, but the new did not include that strap in spite of that there is a place for one to attach. That is why I rated it four stars instead five. The strap for the original was very handy, but the nylon webbing deteriorated (disintegrated a few months ago and I was hoping the new came with that. No joy there. Compared to gas powered blowers, just as powerful, but quieter, and no noxious exhaust, a real advantage in my view. Compared to cordless models, a little more complicated in managing the power cord, but the unit is more powerful, lighter, and far less expensive. I noted in comparative shopping, the cordless models have shorter run times in a single charge than how much time it takes me to do my yard, a real disadvantage because I would need extra batteries that are very pricey. Overall, a good choice for someone with big jobs and wanting to be environmentally conscientious and minimize expense.

I have had a few leaf blowers, but what I always envisioned is a leaf vacuum, that could pick them all up. I was so happy to see that they actually made the thing I had imagined. It works amazingly well, sucking up the leaves and grinding them into fine dust that can be easily disposed of. The attached carrying sack is ample to grind up a solid yardful of leaves. Be sure to get a long extension cord (I have one), but it's just great. This IS a relatively heavy unit. It comes with a shoulder strap that makes it easier, but you will definitely feel it after an hour or two of use. I recommend blowing or raking the leaves to a pile and then using this, but I have also had success just sweeping it along to capture leaves that are dispersed across my yard. I really like this unit, and I am very happy with this purchase.

This BLACK+DECKER Leaf Blower, Vacuum, and Mulcher is a game-changer for yard cleanup! The blower function is powerful, easily clearing leaves and debris from my driveway and lawn. The vacuum and mulcher work great for collecting and shredding leaves, significantly reducing bag waste.Switching between functions takes a little getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it’s very efficient. The bag holds a good amount, and the lightweight design makes it easy to use for extended periods. Perfect for fall cleanup and keeping the yard tidy! Highly recommend! 🍂🍃

I used the B&D blower/vacuum/mulcher today for the first time, to clean up the leaves in our back yard. Our yard is roughly 1500sf and we have two big trees that dumped about 2/3 of their leaves that I needed to pick up.The wind was very strong last night, so it took care of gathering the leaves into a few main areas in the yard so I just had to vacuum them up.I did not use the blower function this time, only the vacuum/mulcher.It worked great! I was so pleased with the suction power, much more than I was expecting. I did use it on the high seeing the whole time. It was able to make quick work of piles, as well as picking up the leaves that had been walked on and smashed into the grass.It comes with a strap that clips onto the machine so you can put it across your shoulder/chest so a lot of the weight is on your shoulders and not on your arms.It's easy to maneuver and lightweight to start out. However, as you vacuum up the leaves, the collection bag gets heavy, so you then start to feel the weight. Nice thing is, the collection bag is very easy to snap on/off, and the zipper to empty it makes it easy to do so, as frequently as you need to.I picked up all the leaves in the back yard, emptied the collection bag 5 or 6 times, and it all mulched down to fit into a 40 gal contractor bag. Awesome!Thank you to another reviewer who warned of the dust from the collection bag. I heeded that warning and wore a mask, and it was very much needed. If you don't wear glasses you may consider wearing some goggles or safety glasses too, to keep the dust out of your eyes.Fair warning, you will get very dirty running the vac/mulch, so just plan on having to change your clothes and shower afterwards. A small price to pay for this machine that does a great job.I would highly recommend this B&D blower/vacuum/mulcher.
