I would say that yard vacuums are definitely worth it! They make cleanup so much easier and faster, and they really do a great job at sucking up leaves, grass, and other debris. I have found that they are especially useful in the fall when all the leaves are falling, and in the spring when everything is starting to grow again.
A leaf blower can also vacuum. The leaf blower has a tube that goes on the ground and sucks up the leaves. The leaves are then blown into a bag.
A shop vac can be used to pick up leaves, but it is not the most effective tool for the job. A leaf blower is a better option for picking up leaves.
If you have a lot of leaves to pick up, the best way to do it quickly is to use a leaf blower. Leaf blowers are handheld or backpack devices that use a powerful stream of air to blow leaves into a pile. You can then use a rake or your hands to pick up the leaves and put them into bags.

So, using an Amazon Warehouse discount, this cost $12.50. It is quite amazing how the world can produce, transport to a distributor, stock, and then transport to a customer at this price.It feels comparable in quality to the Black and Decker device being offered at the terrible big-blue box home improvement retailer. I hardly even use it for lawn maintenance. After washing, it performs admirably as a blow dryer for cars and bicycles.I don't really know how it compares to other, more expensive machines because I don't have much experience with leaf blowers. Just be aware that it blows hard, feels rather well-made, and is quite affordable. It is, in the words of Michael Scott, "a win-win-win.""My Rating Standards"5 Stars: It performs as promised, has the expected fit and finish for a product of this nature, and is a good value.Work as described, fit and finish are what you'd expect from a product of this nature, slight defect possible.Overall, everything works, although there are a few things I would modify.2 Stars: hardly works, but if you try, it might be handy.Useless, completely ineffective, and an overall financial waste of time and money.

If you're looking for a review of this as a blower, search elsewhere because I only use it as a vacuum and abhor leaf blowers. I purchased this one after carefully examining every model with a leaf-vacuum capability that was out there. I came to the conclusion that users who were using them as vacuums favored this one, largely because of the collecting bag system's longevity. It has proven to be among the best gardening equipment I've ever purchased, completely altering how I maintain my yard and significantly enhancing my gardens. It still functions flawlessly after 2.5 months of use and 20 to 30 hours of usage. I have put it through a lot of punishment, including sucking up dirt and wet leaves, and it will even do that better than anyone might reasonably anticipate (although if you do that, you'll need a long-bladed screwdriver and need to get extremely comfortable opening it). Most small twigs and branches will also be sucked up by it, though if they are limber and the correct size, they may cause jams. I have multiple gravel beds, and it will somehow suck up very matted leaves on top of them without grabbing the stones! This is an excellent idea. I mostly use it on the lower level, switching to the high setting only when it starts to clog (usually clears the clog quickly). The metal fan is essential; a plastic one would be destroyed by oak leaves and acorns in my yard, not to mention the occasional small stone it does pick up. At this point, one of the fan blades on mine has a very small nick, but based on the rate of wear, I anticipate getting many years' worth of use out of this low-cost marvel.

This is an honest review of the product, which I bought from Amazon for the full price:So far, the build quality has really impressed me, but the power hasn't really.Don't be deceived by the advertised "MPH" on the box, which I believe people frequently fixate on.This blower is ideal for my application (clearing some grass clippings and dust from my driveway). It is well constructed, lightweight, and reasonably priced. I would advise purchasing a different model if you frequently clean up larger areas or heavier dirt. This model falls within the category of light use.I've owned a Black Decker blower before, but this is my second. My father left me a 25-year-old one that recently failed. I'll be thrilled if I can utilize this one that much.

One of the strongest portable electric blowers on the market is this one. This is the standard if you're serious about finishing the work promptly. The costlier gas backpack blower is the next level of power, followed by a backpack that is much more potent and eventually four-digit specialist tools from businesses like Billy Goat. I got the Worx because I didn't want to rake a half-acre of grass for three hours.I ran a trial run with matted wet leaves and driveway sand for an hour nonstop. It quickly became clear that for a blower to be effective, it must be able to move leaves without standing on top of them. Blowing from six inches only causes chaos as heaps increase. To cope with the strays, you wind up crisscrossing the area you just cleared. The leaves' flight path becomes more direct the longer your breeze travels. Air speed is what gives this range and the capacity to scour obstinate leaves from the ground (MPH). To move multiple leaves at once, though, you need an air wall that is sufficiently large. Your pipe opening size is what causes that. Your total air volume for a specific amount of time, or CFM, is calculated by multiplying the two together (cubic feet per minute).CFM is the most accurate indicator of a blower's power and work capacity in physics-land, which is home to spherical cows and turbulence-free pipes protected from the frigid touch of marketing. A narrower pipe results in a smaller column of air travelling at a faster speed (and more impressive advertising), which is why many consumer-class blowers have small nozzles. MPH can be changed by adjusting the pipe size. (I'm addressing Sun Joe SBJ601E.) The CFM remains constant regardless of the nozzle size. in concept.Blowers that are optimized for speeds beyond around 150 MPH tend to be less efficient compared to their fuel or power usage since trying to swiftly squeeze air into a small opening tends to reduce CFM. Though, if the manufacturer isn't deceiving you by claiming CFM at the fan and MPH at the end of the pipe, you can determine the other figure provided you know either value and the size of the pipe. Calculate (radius2)*(mph)*to calculate CFM from MPH and the radius of a round pipe (1.92). For this blower's 110 MPH and 3 3/8" pipe, that equals (1.692)(110)(1.92), with the outcome exactly reaching the rated amount of 600 CFM.In any case, the Worx has the volume and speed to blow piles of wet leaves up to six feet away and dry leaves up to 10 feet away. Its power is astounding. Every few minutes, as my arms tired from the rearward force, I would switch them. A pipe-reducer attachment would have been useful only for some seriously baked-on mud. The rear-directed air intake doesn't bother me because of my ape-like size or the snug fit of my spandex leaf-blowing onesie.ALTERNATIVES:To reduce bagging, I was on the verge of purchasing Toro's well regarded "Ultra" combo blower, but videos made the vacuum feature appear less beneficial. Perhaps using a few dried leaves to clean a small yard or enclosed deck area might be sufficient. Compared to a standalone mulcher, it seems like a time sink for a larger yard. The blowing capacity again falls short of the Worx, coming in at 410 CFM.Also alluring were cordless power tools. People tend to prefer a 20V DeWalt tool with a (perhaps optimistic) 400 CFM rating. We can directly compare power because the Worx and this fan have similar fan designs. We'll assume the DeWalt standard battery is 20V (really, it's closer to 18V under load) and 5 amp-hours, so the total output is 100 watt-hours. In the best case scenario, a 15-minute duration results in a 400W sustained draw. With the brushless motor operating at 90% efficiency, 360W are actually moving air. while fresh. By year three, anticipate a performance decline and battery replacements.)With this Worx: In this scenario, a 2-pole AC/DC motor that is possibly 55% efficient is being fed by 12 amps at 120V, which corresponds to 1440 watts sustained. The greatest current that a device can expect from a normal 15A residential outlet is close to 12A. The remaining 790W is more than twice as much power as the DeWalt can produce, even after over half of our power is wasted to heat and noise. It is no accident that 80V/2.5Ah batteries with twice the capacity of DeWalt are used in 600 CFM cordless blowers (Greenworks and Kobalt spring to mind). Their maximum running time? The same fifteen minutes, but with three more pounds to carry about from a piece of lithium that is more expensive than the blower it connects to.What about gas blowers, then? The handheld models have between 450 and 500 CFM and 1 HP. Because they are often adjusted for greater MPH than the Worx, they will likely perform somewhat better with wet leaves and slightly worse with dry ones. Backpack blowers increase the displacement and have a horsepower range of 1.5 to 5. The types you could see on a professional landscaper's back are capable of handling approximately 1000 CFM at speeds of around 200 MPH. That is a sizable difference, but you pay for it at the register and in weight: plan on a portable weighing around 10 pounds (compared to this unit's weight of around 7 pounds plus some cord) and a backpack weighing around 20 pounds or more.A corded blower worth paying close attention to as of late 2019 is Toro's F700. It boasts a larger two-arm handle, an improved cord retention system, and 20% greater ventilation, according to claims. Both blowers are powerful in practice, but I'd probably spend the extra $15 simply for the handle.ACCESSORIES:For longer runs, a powerful motor benefits from a thick (low gauge) cord. With thinner cord, performance suffers a little. Everyone has a generic orange 50-foot extension that is 16-gauge. If you feed a 12A load for 50 feet, the voltage will drop by around 5V. Industrial 12-gauge loses only 1.5V on the same line as heavier 14-gauge, which loses 2.5V. Since the scale is linear, you will lose 10V if you double that 16-gauge cord for a 100-foot run.How is this going to work out? A 5V loss reduces the total to 1380W. That's roughly what I discovered when I used a watt meter to test the Worx.12ag / 3 ft = 1423W14ag / 100 ft = 1352W16ag / 50 ft = 1351W16 ag/50 ft plus 14 ag/100 ft equals 1280 W.Disconnect extensions you don't use right away for shorter runs. Slim cables lose more, as said previously.

The Toro 51619 Ultra Leaf Blower under evaluation is.The manual, vacuum tubing, bottom-zip collection bag, power nozzle, concentrator nozzle, and cable storage hook are all included with this model.After using my previous Toro leaf blower for more than ten years, it finally broke down. I chose the 51619 model instead of the 621 model, primarily because I didn't think the 20-dollar price difference between the two models made up for the absence of the oscillating tube in the 619 model.Compared to my previous model, this leaf blower offers a few extra features and some enhancements.The Toro I currently own is more powerful than the earlier model I previously owned, and it is also more versatile to operate because it has a variable speed control as opposed to the former model's essentially single speed. I discovered that the new deck's more potent motor performs better than the previous one at removing tough debris that has become lodged between the boards. I do wish the speed control had a locking function to prevent unintentional speed changes.The one change from my old Toro blower that makes me happy is that this unit now has a metal impeller turbine. My old Toro has a plastic one, and that's what broke when it blasted apart into three parts, potentially putting me in danger because the pieces were strong enough to fracture the blower's outer shell. I am happy to see that the blowers have changed.The fact that this blower is a little bit heavier than my older one is the only drawback of the larger motor and metal turbine. Even though there isn't much of a difference, it becomes apparent after some time of carrying.Although I use it mostly as a blower, it can also be converted into a vacuum, which works okay but has a propensity to clog up a little too readily. I would have preferred to see a better built vacuuming tube and bag that clogged a little less frequently, though it may not be feasible given how this is made. The bag is also somewhat fragile and might not endure repeated use.Unfortunately, one of my complaints about my old Toro wasn't addressed in the newer ones. The cord holder is still not very good and doesn't retain the cord as securely as it ought to. I find it far too simple to unintentionally unhook the power cord, just like the prior model did.For my purposes, which typically involve dried leaves and pine needles, this blower performs reasonably well. For dry leaves, it works fine, but not as well. This model didn't seem to be any noisier than my old Toro, in my opinion. I found the blower's noise level to be reasonable and not much louder than typical carpet vacuums.In general, I'm pleased with this model, especially with the new features and advancements brought about by the metal impeller turbine. The cord holder could still want some work, and the vacuuming accessories could use some improvement, but if it lasts half as long as my previous model, which I've had for more than ten years, I'll have received my money's worth.4 stars

Since I've been using blowers for at least 40 years, I've discovered that the best ones for moving leaves, debris, etc. are the high-end gas blowers. For their price, electric blowers are the most economical option, but dragging a power line over any distance is inconvenient and coiling a long extension cord rapidly is challenging due to its propensity to twist.It's a fantastic light-duty blower from Greenworks. It is incredibly lightweight and concentrates air flow where it is needed thanks to its flat nozzle. Although rated at 150 mph, it has a fairly low cfm rating. Because of this, it won't move a lot of leaves or trash. It works well for cleaning a porch, deck, or leaves or debris off a piece of residential-sized equipment. I bought this blower expressly to clean the removable metal screen in front of the liquid-cooled engine radiator and the deck and other parts of a large commercial front-deck mower.This is a good blower if you are older and pulling a rope starter gets tiresome if the engine doesn't fire

There are a few ways to pick up leaves without raking them. One way is to use a leaf blower. Another way is to use a leaf vac.
A good leaf blower should have at least 500 CFM.
A 120 MPH leaf blower is good for quickly clearing leaves and debris from a large area. It is also powerful enough to blow light snowfall from walkways and driveways.
There are many vacuums on the market that are designed for picking up leaves, and they vary in price and features. Some are designed for use with a leaf blower, while others have their own built-in blower. Some models have a bag for collecting the leaves, while others have a mulching feature that chops up the leaves as they are being vacuumed.
A leaf vacuum is a device that is used to remove leaves from an area. The device typically consists of a hose that is attached to a vacuum cleaner. The leaves are sucked up by the vacuum cleaner and then deposited into a bag or container.
The answer to this question is not as simple as it may seem. In order to determine what is more important in a leaf blower, cfm or MPH, one must first understand the purpose of each. CFM, or cubic feet per minute, is a measure of the volume of air that the leaf blower can move. This is important because it determines how quickly the leaf blower can clear an area. The higher the CFM, the faster the leaf blower can clear an area. MPH, or miles per hour, is a measure of the
