Strong Wind December 14, 2009 D. P. Kressler (Yardley, PA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased theToro 51585 Power Sweep 7 Amp 2-Speed Electric Blower for the purpose of blowing leaves off my back deck. I removed almost all the leaves on the low power setting before I new there were two speeds available. The high speed is not necessary; however, where the leaves were wet, it came in handy. The power of this blower is tremendous, especially for the price.
Amazon Again Sent Me A Used Product at New Product Price December 5, 2009 Lassbrite (Southeast America) Fool me once shame on you, Fool me twice shame on me. I was stupid enough to stick this into a closet until I needed to use it. I have a friend that usually blows my deck off for me. Now months after I received the blower I opened it. The factory plastic bag had already been torn open where the blower had been once removed. Upon looking over the blower casing I found damage in two places where the blower looks as if it has been dragged and the black paint was rubbed off in two narrow lines, one on each side. At the same time of purchase I did buy the correct extension cord to go with the machine. The blower's ability on the low setting was almost useless. The setting on high did the job on my deck. High setting had an amazing amount of power in contrast to the low setting. The small lighter size is good, that is a real plus for me. I really should have opened the box and looked at the merchandise given my experience with receiving used merchandise from Amazon.
Amazon is always very good about taking care of the problem. This time I have waited too long to say anything since it is well over the 30 day period. Just remember returns go right back into stock and that includes bedding items from my experience.
I never hesitate to send anything back because I am ordering new merchandise not used. I'll have to respect Amazon's rules, only because after this long I wouldn't have a case. Just be warned. Think if I had given this as a gift.
so far so good .... December 2, 2009 Fruit Bat (Colonial Beach, VA United States) I've only used the blower a few times, but so far I really like it. It's lightweight and easy to maneuver and, once you get the hang of how to aim it to make the leaves go where you want them to go, it's just plain fun to use. It made such quick work of de-leafing the back deck and front porch, I was tempted to use it inside for a quick housecleaning (begone, dust bunnies!) however, good sense prevailed. I mulch the leaves with a mulching mower and the blower helped herd them into a manageable area. The long extension cord I used was a small hassle so I ordered one of those winder-things and we'll see how that works. I will no longer dread Fall cleanup.
Lightweight yet powerful enough November 21, 2009 Just Me (Davis, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this to replace a heavier Weedeater brand blower that caught fire!
While lightweight, it is quite capable of blowing lots of leaves out of the driveway and off the patio. I love it!
Small yet powerful November 16, 2009 Ile Lin (Georgia) I've been getting lots of leaf debris from trees on my driveway, so I went amazon shopping for a blower. I found this gem and I've been loving it ever since I got it!
It blows not only leafs, but also acorns, small rocks, and sticks. Very useful and versatile. I even use it to blow out dust in my computer. HAHA.
