Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The Toro 51585 Power Sweep electric blower is the perfect blower for clearing leaves and debris from sidewalks, decks, and driveways. This blower generates powerful air speed of up to 160 mph at 155 CFM. At only 4.6 pounds, the Power Sweep is easy to use and very lightweight. A powerful 7.0A motor generates air speed of up to 160 mph with a minimum speed of 130 mph, regulated by a two-speed air control. This control switch is comfortably located on the handle, and falls naturally beneath your thumb. The low air speed offers greater control in tight spaces, while the high speed setting gives you the power to wrap up the job. This unit is UL-listed and covered by a 2-year full manufacturer’s warranty.

We recently acquired an property with a lot of leafy trees and this is my first blower. When the shipment arrived, I thought that Amazon shipped the wrong item because it came in a tiny box. Snap the tube on, connect the cord and it's ready to use.
The power switch is somewhat touchy. When trying to select low speed, it is easy to accidentally bump it into high speed. I accidentally blasted away a bunch of bark and made a crater. Oops. During low speed use, it's also easy to accidentally bump the power switch to off.
The power receptacle is mounted on a short cable tail on the back end. I have several other lawn tools that have the receptacle integrated into the shell with a hook to retain the cord and I prefer that arrangement. When you reach the end of the extension cord, it disconnects easily and cuts power. There's also no strain relief so I think that eventually I will be repairing this short section of cord.
Although it looks and feels like a toy, it seems to work well on flat surfaces and bark, but struggles a little with leaves in wet grass. It just takes longer but still gets it done. I also used it to clear the gutters of leaves and it worked well. I removed the tube making it even smaller and lighter. There were a few times when the thrust nearly knocked me off the ladder.
Noise level is excellent, especially on low. Think giant hairdryer. It is much lighter, quieter and not smelly compared to the big gas blowers.
I was originally considering the Toro Ultra, but I was unsure how much vacuuming and mulching I would do and wanted something lighter, less expensive, and less cumbersome.

This works better than advertised -- I use it to clear my backyard, patio, driveway, it even knocks spiderwebs off the house and garage walls!
Thank goodness it has two speeds -- the higher setting is too strong for some tasks! I actually look for excuses to use this tool.

Don't waste your money on 12 amp versions or so called 200+ mph electric blowers for home use. The 7 Amp Toro Model 5185 Power Sweep 2 Speed is perfect for most yard clean up jobs. Light with a shorter flow tube, the 51585 makes it easy to get around planting areas with excellent air control flow.

It does a good job
My husband thought it was a little too short because he didn't like reaching down. Added a piece of tubing and it worked great.

Small but Terrible
I'm a little hesitant to buy this one, but it turns out that it's a good buy. It gives me all the power to blow the cut grass and leaves and other stuff on my medium backyard.
