This TrimmerPlus add on works ok for the money, but I can't recomend it for anyone with more than an 8th of an acre. I have a 1/4 acre yard and this blower was a bit underpowed, and not much faster than raking. In Vacum mode it works ok, but again is kinda slow and the bag fills up way too fast. I've been thinking of modifying the exhaust to feed straight into a 25 gal trash can. All in all a good idea, but not made for big yards.

Overall, I am very happy with the performance of the blower/vac attachment. The blower works well for blowing off pavement, although I haven't tried it on wet leaves yet. The vacuum function works well, too. It doesn't have quite the suction or blowing power of a dedicated blower or mulcher, but it works great for me. Unless you have a huge yard, you probably wouldn't want to purchase an individual blower and vacuum. I would recommend this product for the easy attachment to the trimmer motor and for exceptional value.

Yes, it's made of plastic but so far the abuse I've subjected it to makes me wonder if it's lined with Kryptonite. I recently trimmed my boxwoods and Red Tip bushes/shrubs and after spending 30 minutes raking and picking up debris by hand, I said I wish I had a lawn vac to suck all this stuff up. Hey, I DO have a lawn vac! So....branches, leaves, twigs, etc got sucked up and placed nicely in the bag. A little grunting from the impeller blade but most of it came up aside from a few stubbon leaves. I havent tried the blower part yet but i can only imagine it works as well.

This is a great system! Wish I saw this attachment before I bought the lone Blower. The Blower/Vac has adequate power, nothing stunning with my 31cc 2 Cycle, but it's the convenience and price that gives it a stellar review. Anyone interested in a almost new Blower?

I found the add on blow/vac/mulch to be a little anemic. I had better results with an electric blower. I love all of the other Ryobi attachments that I have but I took back the blower.

This blower/vac provides the user with the option to decide which mode to use, at a whim-- esp handy on breezy autumn afternoons when you've got a thick layer of leaves covering the yard...

...the vac is not designed to pick up masses of wet leaves, and even when picking up dry leaves, you should empty the bag frequently. Both blower and vac are good and powerful, making light work of tiresome raking-type chores.

I bought a Yardman weed wacker which is compatable with the Ryobi stuff. When I saw the Vac/Blower attachment, I thought that it was too good to be true. It has been an incredible attachment. It has cut my "landscaping" time in half and everything looks so much better. This thing even sucks up oranges that have fallen off of my tree. I don't know if that is good for it or not but it just keeps working. The blower is more than adequate and does all that I need. So far I have been very pleased with this item. I would recommend it highly!

This is ANOTHER great add-on for my Ryobi trimmer! I hated using my old electric vac/blower,and my yard showed it! This new vac/blower add-on is making short work of that chore. Good power and well balanced. With all the TrimmerPlus attachments, my yard has never looked better!

Works well with the Ryobi Power Trimmer that I have. No need to use a different motor, just you the Click-Link shaft on the Trimmer. Much easier than raking leaves.

too bulky. blower strength depends on the trimmer motor. If motor loses it's power, then there goes your blower too.
